The present invention relates generally to the fields of immunology and vaccine technology. More specifically, the invention relates to recombinant human adenovirus vectors for delivery of avian immunogens and antigens, such as avian influenza into avians. The invention also provides methods of introducing and expressing an avian immunogen in avian subjects, including avian embryos, as well as methods of eliciting an immunogenic response in avian subjects to avian immunogens.

Described herein is a fusion protein comprising a bacteriophage protein fused to a cancer antigen. Vaccines are also described, as well as methods of treatment and/or prevention of cancer and methods of immunizing an individual.

The present invention relates to an immunogen-carrier, wherein the immunogen-carrier is preferably a virus-like particle (VLP) composed of a plurality of a modified PCV2 ORF2 protein. In particular, the present invention belongs to the field of compliance markers and marker vaccines which allow for the differentiation between infected and vaccinated individuals. In particular, it relates to a compliance marker for vaccines including a subunit antigen, and a DIVA (Differentiating Infected from Vaccinated Animals) system which makes it possible to differentiate between animals infected with a pathogen and animals treated with a subunit antigen derived from said pathogen.

The present invention relates to a novel antibody against HERV-K envelope that targets a conserved region not affected by glycosylation or by native conformation, and its use in diagnostics and/or in therapy.

Described herein is the formulation of immunogenic or vaccine compositions comprising neutral lipid liposome based adjuvants, where the composition is suitable for lyophilisation. In particular, the invention relates to lyophilised forms of such immunogenic or vaccine compositions wherein both the immunogen or vaccine antigen and the adjuvant are present in one and the same vial, as well as to the formulation and manufacture of lyophilised forms of such immunogenic or vaccine composition.

Disclosed are compositions related to synthetic PD-1 peptides, chimeric PD-1 peptides, anti-PD-1 antibodies and methods of treating cancers, autoimmune diseases, and Alzheimer's disease using said peptides or antibodies.

A stable immunogenic or vaccine composition comprising a complex or polyhedra comprising same comprising an antigen of a pathogen or other antigen against which a immune response is sought in a human or non-human animal subject and a polyhedrin protein derived from a cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus (CPV). Delivery of the complex to a subject in substantially polyhedral form induces an immune response thereto. Methods of using same to elicit an immune response.

The invention relates to a virus like particle (VLP) based vaccine. The virus-like particle constitutes a non-naturally occurring, ordered and repetitive antigen array display scaffold which can obtain a strong and long-lasting immune response in a subject. The VLP based vaccine may be used for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of a disease including, but is not limited to, cancer, cardiovascular, infectious, asthma, and/or allergy diseases/disorders.

The invention is related to chimeric Virus-Like Particles (VLPs) containing and displaying epitopes and antigen from Zika Virus (ZIKV); and to methods for creation and production of such chimeric VLPs to their applications, including but not limited to vaccines, diagnostics, clinical studies, assay development and antibody discovery.

The present disclosure relates to fusion proteins that comprise one or more modified alpha virus surface glycoproteins and one or more tumor specific antigens. Also disclosed are fusion proteins that comprise one or more modified alpha virus surface glycoproteins and one or more viral specific antigens. Also disclosed are fusion proteins that comprise one or more modified alpha virus surface glycoproteins. It also relates to methods to activate the immune system in cancer patients to infiltrate and kill tumor cells or cells infected with a latent virus. The present disclosure provides a platform technology that elicits a faster, broader and stronger immune response using the fusion proteins.
