ADJUVANTED FORMULATIONS OF STREPTOCOCCUS PNEUMONIAE ANTIGENS

摘要

The efficacy of S. pneumoniae vaccines can be enhanced by adjuvanting S. pneumoniae saccharide and/or protein antigens with a mixture of a TLR agonist (preferably a TLR7 agonist) and an insoluble metal salt (preferably an aluminium salt). The TLR agonist is typically adsorbed to the metal salt. The S. pneumoniae antigen can also be adsorbed to the metal salt.
