Immunization of chimpanzees confers protection against challenge with human immunodeficiency virus.

Abstract: Sustained high titers of neutralizing antibodies were elicited in three chimpanzees after sequential injections of different human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) antigen preparations derived from the HIV-1 BRU strain that included whole inactivated virus or purified recombinant proteins and then synthetic peptides identical to the major HIV-1 neutralizing epitope V3. The animals were chaflenged i.v. with 40 chimpanzee infectious doses (equivalent to 100 tissue culture 50% infectious doses) of a stock of HIV-… Show more

“…While this approach can prevent infections with viruses containing glycoproteins closely related to the original immunogen, it has failed to generate the broadly protective response required for a successful vaccine, given the diversity of circulating HIV clades [1][2][3][4][5][6]. The current strategy for development of a vaccine has shifted to presentation of a variety of HIV-1 recombinant proteins with novel delivery vectors and/or adjuvants to elicit T-cell mediated immunity (CMI) with an emphasis on cytotoxic CD8+ lymphocyte (CTL) responses.…”

“…The Syntax adjuvant formulation (SAF) [196] used the potent block copolymer L-121 to generate a squalane-in-water formulation. The SAF M formulation developed for manufacturing was shown to be effective in several primate systems [218][219][220]. Use of the nontoxic low-HLB spreading agent Span 85 [221] and Tween 80 as stabilizers for a squalene-water emulsion produced the adjuvant MF59 [222,223].…”

“…Extensive work has been done with an SAF squalane/L121 block copolymer system in conjunction with threonyl-MDP pioneered by Allison and Byars [260]. Preclinical effi cacy was demonstrated with a spectrum of antigens [261], including HIV in chimpanzees [220]. The squalene-water emulsion MF59 was tested with MTP-PE and HIV vaccines in a phase I clinical trial [262] and with infl uenza vaccine [263] where reactogenicity in the presence of MTP-PE was unacceptable.…”
