    摘要: The invention uses polypeptide antigens and/or OMVs to immunize against serogroups A, C, W135 and Y (and against serogroup Y in particular). Serogroup B polypeptides can achieve this protection, thus permitting a single polypeptide-based vaccine to be used for protecting against all of serogroups A, B, C, W135 and Y.

    摘要: To improve the stability of vaccines comprising aluminum salt(s), the invention uses the amino acid histidine. This can improve pH stability and adjuvant adsorption and can be reduce antigen hydrolysis. Histidine is preferably presen during adsorption to the aluminium salt(s). The antigen in the vaccine may be a protein or a saccharide and is preferably from N. meningitidis.

    摘要: Factor H binding protein (fHBP) has been proposed for use in immunising against serogroup B meningococcus (‘MenB’). This antigen can be efficiently adsorbed to an aluminium hydroxyphosphate adjuvant by (i) ensuring that adsorption takes place at a pH which is equal to or below the adjuvant's point of zero charge (PZC), and/or (ii) selecting a fHBP and adjuvant with an isoelectric point/PZC within the range of 5.0 to 7, and/or (iii) selecting a fHBP with an isoelectric point above the adjuvant's PZC and using a buffer to bring the pH to within 1.2 pH units of the PZC. The adsorption is particularly useful for compositions which include multiple fHBP variants, and also in situations where an aluminium hydroxide adjuvant should be avoided. Buffered pharmaceutical compositions can include at least two different meningococcal fHBP antigens, both of which are at least 85% adsorbed to aluminium hydroxyphosphate adjuvant.

    摘要: Influenza vaccines with oil-in-water emulsion adjuvants are known. The amount of emulsion adjuvant required for an influenza vaccine can be reduced, thereby allowing more vaccines to be made from a given amount of emulsion, and/or minimizing the amount of emulsion that has to be produced for a given number of vaccine doses. These vaccines can conveniently be made by mixing (i) an oil-in-water emulsion and (ii) an aqueous preparation of an influenza virus antigen. In one aspect, substantially equal volumes of components (i) and (ii) are used; in another aspect, an excess volume of component (ii) is used. When using substantially equal volumes, component (ii) has a hemagglutinin concentration of more than 60 μg influenza virus strain per ml. Components (i) and (ii) can be presented in kit form.

    摘要: Conjugated capsular saccharides from meningococcal serogroups C, W135 and Y are safe and immunogenic in humans when combined in a single dose. This effect is retained when a conjugated capsular saccharide from serogroup A is added. These conjugated antigens can be stably combined in a single aqueous dose without the need for lyophilisation. Broad protection against serogroup B infection can be achieved by using a small number of defined polypeptide antigens. These polypeptide antigens can be combined with the saccharide antigens without loss of protective efficacy for any of the five serogroups. Efficacy if retained even if a Hib conjugate is added. The efficacy of a serogroup W135 conjugate is enhanced by addition of protein antigens derived from a serogroup B strain. Addition of a Hib conjugate to meningococcal conjugates enhances the overall activity against meningococcus serogroup W135.
