A dengue-1 DNA vaccine containing sequences encoding premembrane and envelope proteins (DIME) was previously shown to elicit virus neutralizing antibodies in rhesus and Aotus monkeys, and the primates were partially protected from viremia upon challenge. To increase the neutralizing antibody levels
Synthetic peptide and recombinant protein vaccines are optimally immunogenic when delivered with an effective adjuvant. Candidate vaccines currently insufficiently immunogenic may induce a protective immunity if they could be delivered with more effective adjuvants. For example, immunogens that
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) mutants lacking the γ134.5 neurovirulence loci are promising agents for treating malignant glioma. Arming oncolytic HSV-1 (oHSV) to express immunostimulatory genes may potentiate therapeutic efficacy. We have previously demonstrated improved pre-clinical efficacy,
BACKGROUND
Attempts to optimize DNA vaccines in mice include using different routes of administration and different formulations. It may be more relevant to human use to carry such studies out in nonhuman primates. Here we compare different approaches to delivery of a DNA vaccine against the
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) mutants lacking the γ(1)34.5 neurovirulence loci are promising agents for treating malignant glioma. Arming oncolytic HSV-1 to express immunostimulatory genes may potentiate therapeutic efficacy. We have previously demonstrated improved preclinical efficacy,
