Mip3a/relMtb
The Mip3a/relMtb vaccine is an intranasal therapeutic DNA fusion vaccine encoding the M. tuberculosis stringent response antigen relMtb (Rv2583c) linked to the immature dendritic cell–targeting chemokine Mip3a/CCL20, formulated as a plasmid DNA construct without an added adjuvant.

Ag85A-LpqH (AL) is a recombinant subunit vaccine that combines the T cell-stimulating antigen Ag85A with the humoral immunity-targeting antigen LpqH. It is constructed using the pET-21a(+) vector, expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3), and formulated with aluminum for subcutaneous administration.

TBvac-1, TBvac-2, and TBvac-10 use a recombinant tri-segmented Pichinde virus (PICV) vector (rP18tri) to express M. tuberculosis antigens. TBvac-1 and TBvac-2 encode Ag85B, EsxA/ESAT-6, and EsxH/TB10.4, with antigen locations swapped between S1 and S2 segments. TBvac-10 encodes Ag85B, EsxH/TB10.4, RpfA, and Rv1733c. Vaccine stocks are produced in BHK-21 cells from plaque purified virus.

Tri:ChAd:TB is built on the chimpanzee adenovirus serotype 68 vector, expressing Ag85A, TB10.4, and RpfB. These antigens spanning distinct M.tb life-cycle stages. Ag85A wanes after acute infection, whereas TB10.4 remains highly expressed. RpfB is upregulated during dormancy and resuscitation. This vaccine is formulated for respiratory mucosal delivery.

This TB vaccine candidate comprises a live attenuated Listeria monocytogenes vector with two major virulence gene deletions and a T-cell immunity enhancing mutation (Lm ΔactA ΔinlB prfA*) that expresses nine M. tuberculosis immunoprotective proteins (Mpt64, TB10.4, ESAT-6, CFP10, Ag85B, EsxN, PPE68, EspA, and TB8.4 – four absent from BCG) from two chromosomal fusion protein expression…
