摘要

A pharmaceutical composition comprising at least two peptides of from 15 to 60 amino acids in length, selected from peptides comprising a sequence of at least 15 contiguous amino acids of one of the sequences shown in SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 4 or of a sequence having at least 80% identity to one of the sequences shown in SEQ ID NOs: to 4, wherein each peptide comprises at least one CD8+ T-cell epitope and/or at least one CD4+ T-cell epitope and wherein each peptide elicits a response in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from at least one chronically infected HBV individual in an 10 in vitroassay.
