<i>Neisseria meningitidis </i>compositions and methods thereof
In one aspect, the invention relates to a composition including a first polypeptide having the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 and a second polypeptide having the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2. In one embodiment, the composition includes about 120 g/ml of a first polypeptide including the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1, 120 g/ml of a second polypeptide including the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, about 2.8 molar ratio polysorbate-80 to the first polypeptide, about 2.8 molar ratio polysorbate-80 to the second polypeptide, about 0.5 mg/ml aluminum, about 10 mM histidine, and about 150 mM sodium chloride. In one embodiment, a dose of the composition is about 0.5 ml in total volume. In one embodiment, two-doses of the composition induce a bactericidal titer against diverse heterologous subfamily A and subfamily B strains in a human.
Compositions and methods for treating bacterial disease
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for preventing and/or treating bacterial disease (e.g., disease caused by Neisseria sp. such as gonorrhea). In particular, the present invention provides compositions comprising an effective amount of a nucleic acid, wherein such compositions are capable of killing or inhibiting the growth of a Neisseria sp. (e.g., Neisseria gonorrhoeae).
