摘要:
The present invention is directed to a polymeric carrier cargo complex, comprising as a cargo at least one nucleic acid (molecule) and disulfide-crosslinked cationic components as a (preferably non-toxic and non-immunogenic) polymeric carrier. The inventive polymeric carrier cargo complex allows for both efficient transfection of nucleic acids into cells in vivo and in vitro and/or for induction of an (innate and/or adaptive) immune response, preferably dependent on the nucleic acid to be transported as a cargo. The present invention also provides, pharmaceutical compositions, particularly vaccines and adjuvants, comprising the inventive polymeric carrier cargo complex and optionally an antigen, as well as the use of such the inventive polymeric carrier cargo complex and optionally an antigen for transfecting a cell, a tissue or an organism, for (gene-)therapeutic purposes as disclosed herein, and/or as an immunostimulating agent or adjuvant, e.g. for eliciting an immune response for the treatment or prophylaxis of diseases as mentioned above. Finally, the invention relates to kits containing the inventive polymeric carrier cargo complex and/or the inventive pharmaceutical composition, adjuvant or vaccine in one or more parts of the kit.

The present invention relates to nucleic acids of the general formula (I): (NuGlXmGnNv)a and derivatives thereof as an immunostimulating agent/adjuvant and to compositions containing same, optionally comprising an additional adjuvant. The present invention furthermore relates to a pharmaceutical composition or to a vaccine, each containing nucleic acids of formula (I) above and/or derivatives thereof as an immunostimulating agent, and optionally at least one additional pharmaceutically active component, e.g. an antigenic agent. The present invention relates likewise to the use of the pharmaceutical composition or of the vaccine for the treatment of cancer diseases, infectious diseases, allergies and autoimmune diseases etc. Likewise, the present invention includes the use of nucleic acids of the general formula (I): (NuGlXmGnNv)a and/or derivatives thereof for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of such diseases.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an immunostimulatory composition comprising a) an adjuvant component, comprising or consisting of at least one (m)RNA, complexed with a cationic or polycationic compound, and b) at least one free mRNA, encoding at least one therapeutically active protein, antigen, allergen and/or antibody, wherein the immunostimulatory composition is capable to elicit or enhance an innate and optionally an adaptive immune response in a mammal. The inventive immunostimulatory composition may be a pharmaceutical composition or a vaccine. The invention furthermore relates to a method of preparation of the inventive immunostimulatory composition. The invention also relates to the use of the inventive immunostimulatory composition or its components (for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition or a vaccine) for the treatment of various diseases. Finally, the invention relates to kits containing the inventive immunostimulatory composition, its components and/or the pharmaceutical composition or vaccine.
