Peptide-polysaccharide-protein conjugate vaccines.

摘要

Covalent conjugate immunogens, having Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Principal Neutralizing Determinant (PND) peptides covalently bound to the Outer Membrane Protein Complex (OMPC) of Neisseria through a linker which is an anionic polysaccharide (PSA), are useful for inducing anti-peptide immune responses in mammals, for inducing HIV-neutralizing antibodies in mammals, for formulating vaccines to prevent HIV infection or disease, including the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) or for treating humans afflicted with HIV infection or HIV disease, including AIDS.
