<p>Influenza viruses have traditionally been administered by intramuscular injection. The invention is based on the idea of using alternative routes of delivery for influenza vaccines, more specifically routes that do not require as large a dose of antigen. Delivery of influenza antigen to the Langerhans cells is the route of choice according to the invention. This route has been found to be particularly useful for vaccinating patients who are naïve to influenza virus ( i.e . have not previously mounted an immune response to an influenza virus), which means that it is advantageous for immunising young children.</p> |
