Provided are a mutated HPV58 L1 protein or a variant thereof, a sequence encoding the same, a method for preparing the same, and a virus-like particle comprising the same, wherein the protein or a variant thereof and the virus-like particle can induce the generation of neutralizing antibodies against at least two HPV types, and therefore can be used to prevent infection by said at least two HPV types, and a disease caused by said infection, such as cervical cancer and condyloma acuminatum. The invention further relates to the use of the protein and the virus-like particle in the manufacture of a pharmaceutical composition or a vaccine for preventing infection by said at least two HPV types, and a disease caused by said infection, such as cervical cancer and condyloma acuminatum.

Safe, rapid and efficient methods for producing antigen-specific T cells recognizing human papilloma virus or HPV antigens.

The present application provides immune cells comprising an HPV antigen and an adjuvant, methods of manufacturing such modified immune cells, and methods of using such modified immune cells for treating an HPV-associated disease, preventing an HPV-associated disease and/or for modulating an immune response in an individual with an HPV-associated disease.

The invention provides compounds including a CpG oligodeoxynucleotide sequence linked to a lipid by a linker and related compositions and methods.
