A two-step chromatography purification scheme is described which selectively captures and isolates the genome-containing rAAV vector particles from the clarified, concentrated supernatant of a rAAV production cell culture. The process utilizes an affinity capture method performed at a high salt concentration followed by an anion exchange resin method performed at high pH to provide rAAV vector particles which are substantially free of rAAV intermediates.

The compositions and methods are described for generating an immune response to a tumor associated antigen such as MUC-1. The compositions and methods described herein relate to a modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vector encoding one or more viral antigens for generating a protective immune response to MUC-1 in the subject to which the vector is administered and boosting the immune response by administering a MUC-1 peptide. The compositions and methods of the present invention are useful both prophylactically and therapeutically and may be used to prevent and/or treat neoplasms and associated diseases.

This application pertains to methods of isolating virus particles and producing virus vaccine composition comprising subject a biological sample to an anion exchange chromatography and a hydroxyapatite chromatography. The application also pertains to rabies virus vaccine compositions and methods of assessing suitability of a virus vaccine composition or releasing a commercial batch of virus vaccine composition for clinical use.

Adsorptive media for chromatography, particularly ion-exchange chromatography, derived from a shaped fiber. In certain embodiments, the functionalized shaped fiber presents a fibrillated or ridged structure which greatly increases the surface area of the fibers when compared to ordinary fibers. Also disclosed herein is a method to add surface pendant functional groups that provides cation-exchange or anion-exchange functionality to the high surface area fibers. This pendant functionality is useful for the ion-exchange chromatographic purification of biomolecules, such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs).
