The present disclosure provides, among other things, a lipid nanoparticle adjuvant composition. The present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions that include a stable lipid nanoparticle adjuvant and human papillomavirus (HPV) virus-like particles (VLPs) of at least one type of human papillomavirus (HPV) selected from the group consisting of HPV types: 6, 11, 16, 18, 26, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 53, 55, 56, 58, 59, 66, 68, 73, and 82.

The invention pertains to host cells for producing a bioconjugate of an E. coli O18 antigen polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein. The host cells are characterized in that they comprise modified Wzy O-antigen polymerases with specific combinations of amino acid substitutions in one or more of positions 199, 377 and 395 as compared to the wild type Wzy O-antigen polymerase of SEQ ID NO: 1, which modified Wzy O-antigen polymerases improve the yield and glycosylation pattern of the O18 bioconjugates produced by the host cells. The invention further relates to methods wherein the host cells are used to produce a bioconjugate of an E. coli O18 antigen polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein, compositions comprising these bioconjugates, including multivalent compositions comprising bioconjugates of additional O antigen polysaccharide-serotypes.

The present invention relates to the treatment of cancer, in particular breast cancer, particularly triple-negative breast cancer. More particularly, the invention concerns methods and means for cancer treatment involving a specific set of tumor antigens.

Provided herein are HIV-1 vaccines comprising a carrier and a population episensus antigen determined using the EpiGraph approach. Also provided are HIV-1 vaccines comprising a carrier, a population episensus antigen, and a tailored antigen. Also provided are methods of designing and producing an HIV-1 vaccine for a subject comprising designing vaccine antigens to optimally cover the diversity within a geographic area using an antigen amino acid sequence generated using the EpiGraph approach, and producing said designed vaccine antigen. Also provided are methods of inducing an effector memory T cell response comprising designing the one or more EpiGraph amino acid sequences, producing a vaccine comprising the one or more EpiGraph amino acid sequences and a vector, and administering the vaccine to a subject. Further provided are methods of treating HIV-1 in a subject comprising administering an effective amount of the described HIV-1 vaccines to the subject in need thereof.

The disclosure relates to polypeptides and pharmaceutical compositions comprising polypeptides that find use in the prevention or treatment of cancer, in particular breast cancer, ovarian cancer and colorectal cancer. The disclosure also relates to methods of inducing a cytotoxic T cell response in a subject or treating cancer by administering pharmaceutical compositions comprising the peptides, and companion diagnostic methods of identifying subjects for treatment. The peptides comprise T cell epitopes that are immunogenic in a high percentage of patients.

Stable lyophilized immunogenic compositions include inter alia live attenuated recombinant flaviviruses, more preferably live attenuated recombinant dengue viruses, at least one carbohydrate, at least one amino acid and is particularly amenable to rapid freeze-drying treatments wherein, the composition preserves desired characteristics of a virus, including virus viability, immunogenicity and stability. The immunogenic composition is devoid of preservatives, polymers and surfactants. The methods for manufacturing the stable lyophilized immunogenic compositions are also provided.

The present invention discloses a combination of vaccine strains for treating, preventing, relieving or controlling Canine Distemper, Canine Parvovirus Enteritis and Canine Infectious Hepatitis, comprising: Canine Distemper virus vaccine strain with the microorganism deposition accession number CGMCC No. 19397, Canine Parvovirus vaccine strain with the microorganism deposition accession number CGMCC No. 19398 and Canine Infectious Hepatitis virus vaccine strain with the microorganism deposition accession number CGMCC No. 19396. The three vaccine strains of the combination of vaccine strains are low in toxicity and good in immunogenicity. The present invention further discloses a live vaccine composition using the above-mentioned combination of vaccine strains as immunogen. The vaccine composition is safe and effective.

The disclosure relates to polypeptides, vaccines and pharmaceutical compositions that find use in the prevention or treatment of Coronaviridae or SARS-CoV-2 infection. The disclosure also relates to methods of treating or preventing Coronaviridae or SARS-CoV-2 infection in a subject. The polypeptides and vaccines comprise B cell epitopes and cytotoxic and helper T cell epitopes that are immunogenic in a high percentage of subjects in the human population.

The present invention pertains to a vaccine comprising in combination non-replicating immunogen of porcine circo virus type 2 and live attenuated PRRS virus for use in prophylactically treating an animal against an infection with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and an infection with PRRS virus by administration of the vaccine into the dermis of the animal.

Disclosed herein are compositions comprising optimized consensus TERT antigens and methods for treating cancer and in particular immunogenic compositions that treat and provide protection against tumor.
