The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

The invention relates to a recombinant Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara (MVA) encoding a spike (S) protein or a part thereof, such as a receptor-binding domain (RBD), and additional antigenic sequences derived from other proteins of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19).

The application generally relates to enhanced recombinant nucleic acid constructs comprising a cDNA molecule encoding a full length antigenomic (+) RNA strand of a non-segmented negative-sense single-stranded RNA virus for expressing at least one heterologous polypeptide, protein, antigen, or antigenic fragment thereof. The application more particularly relates to constructs with multiple ATUs localized within a single intergenic region of a virus. The application also relates to the association between a construct with multiple ATUs and BAG plasmid to facilitate the introduction and expression of large inserts.

The present invention relates to the anti-SARS-CoV-2-infection protein and vaccine, and belongs to the field of medicine. Due to the lack of efficient drugs for SARS-CoV-2 infection prevention and treatment in the prior art, the present invention provides an anti-SARS-CoV-2-infection protein, which contains a domain that binds with the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor as contained in the SARS-CoV-2 S protein. One the other hand, the present invention also provides a vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 infection prevention and/or treatment, which comprises the anti-SARS-CoV-2-infection protein as well as the pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or auxiliary ingredient. The present invention mainly induces the production of antibodies in the body for immunoreaction and blocks the binding the SARS-CoV-2 S protein and the ACE2 receptor of the host cell, thus helping the host to fight against the corona virus infection.

The invention relates, in general, to synthetic chimeric poxviruses, compositions comprising such viruses, and the development and use of systems and methods for producing such synthetic chimeric poxviruses. The synthetic chimeric poxviruses are well suited for live virus vaccines and pharmaceutical formulations.

Betacoronavirus Spike proteins, or fragments thereof, including substitution mutations designed to increase stability, decrease the risk of antibody dependent enhancement, or both; and that are useful in, for example, immunogenic compositions.

Methods of safely inducing a protective immune response against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and methods of preventing infection and/or replication of RSV in human subjects are described. The methods include administering to the subjects (a) an effective amount of an adenoviral vector encoding a recombinant RSV F protein that is stabilized in a pre-fusion conformation, and (b) an effective amount of an RSV F protein that is stabilized in a pre-fusion conformation.
