Abstract:
Fusion proteins comprising an antigen derived from NY-ESO-1 linked to an antigen derived from LAGE-1, which may further comprise carriers, fusion partners, or the like, are provided. Methods for preparing, formulating, and using such fusion proteins are also provided. Such proteins are useful a vaccine components for inducing an immune response against a range of cancer-antigen-bearing cells.
Abstract:
The present application discloses a method for making an immunogenic composition comprising an improved way of conducting saccharide - protein conjugation reactions using carbodiimide condensation chemistry. Depending on the nature of the saccharide or protein carrier involved, the quality of the conjugate may be improved by adding one of the reaction components slowly to the reaction mixture. In addition, the conjugate is mixed with a staphylococcal antigen. Immunogenic compositions are further provided comprising the saccharide-protein conjugates made by the methods disclosed.
