Particular aspects provide for use of the β-herpesvirus Cytomegalovirus (CMV: e.g., RhCMV and HCMV) as a uniquely evolved “vector” for safely initiating and indefinitely maintaining high level cellular and humoral immune responses (against, e.g., HIV, SIV, TB, etc.). Particular aspects provide a method for treatment or prevention of, e.g., HIV, SIV or TB, comprising infection of a subject in need thereof with at least one recombinant CMV-based vector (e.g., HCMV or RhCMV) comprising an expressible HIV/SIV/TB antigen or a variant or fusion protein thereof. In particular embodiments of the method, infection is of an immunocompetent, HCMV or RhCMV seropositive subject. Additional aspects provide for RhCMV- and HCMV-based vaccine vectors, and versions thereof with suicide or safety means. Further aspects provide pharmaceutical compositions comprising the inventive CMV-based vaccine vectors.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of immunodeficiency (e.g., primary immunodeficiency disease). In particular, the invention provides human plasma immunoglobulin compositions containing select antibody titers specific for a plurality of respiratory pathogens, methods of identifying human donors and donor samples for use in the compositions, methods of manufacturing the compositions, and methods of utilizing the compositions (e.g., for prophylactic administration and/or therapeutic treatment (e.g., passive immunization (e.g., immune-prophylaxis))).

Aspects of the invention described herein relate to synthetic compounds that are useful for targeting and labeling tumor cells so as to facilitate recognition by binding agents including Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cells (CAR T cells), which are administered to a subject by intravenous or locoregional administration. Several compositions and methods of making and using these compositions to treat or inhibit a disease in a subject are contemplated.

A new species of circovirus, porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3), was identified from sows with clinical symptoms normally associated with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection and in aborted fetuses. Molecular and serological analyses suggest PCV3 commonly circulates in U.S. swine. The present disclosure provides immunological compositions and methods related to the production and administration of such compositions.

The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treating or preventing neonatal herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection and/or the neurological and/or non-neurological sequelae thereof.

The present invention relates to anti-VP1 antibodies, antibody fragments, and their uses for the prevention and treatment of polyoma virus infection and associated diseases.

Embodiments of the disclosure include methods and compositions for treatment of a medical condition related to the liver, including at least viral infections and liver cancer, for example. In specific embodiments, immunotherapies are provided for delivering polynucleotides locally to the liver, wherein the polynucleotides encode particular gene products that include bispecific antibodies, including those that target certain liver antigens, for example.

The present invention relates to antigen binding protein, and in particular monoclonal antibodies, with bind to a HSV gEgI heterodimer, and to the use of such in detection and potency assays and in therapy.
