In one aspect, the invention relates to a composition including a first polypeptide having the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 and a second polypeptide having the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2. In one embodiment, the composition includes about 120 μg/ml of a first polypeptide including the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1, 120 μg/ml of a second polypeptide including the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, about 2.8 molar ratio polysorbate-80 to the first polypeptide, about 2.8 molar ratio polysorbate-80 to the second polypeptide, about 0.5 mg/ml aluminum, about 10 mM histidine, and about 150 mM sodium chloride. In one embodiment, a dose of the composition is about 0.5 ml in total volume. In one embodiment, two-doses of the composition induce a bactericidal titer against diverse heterologous subfamily A and subfamily B strains in a human.

Compositions useful as poliovirus immunogens are provided along with methods and compositions for preparing the same. Compositions comprising poliovirus immunogens can enable a host response that includes virus-neutralizing antibodies which can protect the host from infection and/or disease.

Methods of testing tumor samples for mutational burden and/or for expression profiles permit the prediction of responsiveness of an individual to immunotherapy comprising PVSRIPO. Those predicted to respond are treated with PVSRIPO and those predicted not to respond are treated with other agents.

Provided herein are compositions of virus like particles (VLPs) of poliovirus (PV) that have one or more stabilizing mutations that confer a higher degree of thermostability to the N-antigenic form of the VLPs. These VLPs are non-infectious, and thus safer for use in vaccine development and administration to clinical subjects.

The invention is directed to a vaccine comprising: i) coxsackie B virus CBV1 and CBV2, and ii) at least one coxsackie B virus selected from CBV3, CBV4, CBV5 and CBV6. The CBVs are present in the vaccine in inactivated form, in the form of a component of the virus or as an antibody against the virus. The vaccine is effective in preventing and treating type 1 diabetes. So is an anti-coxsackie B virus composition provided.
