ALHA
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.

The Inhaled Tuberculosis Vaccine (Adenovirus Type 5 Vector) developed by CanSino Biologics Inc. is a non-replicating viral-vectored vaccine intended for administration via nebulized inhalation by mouth. It is designed to induce both local mucosal immunity in the respiratory tract and systemic immune responses against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) backbone functions as…
Read MoreTBvac-1, TBvac-2, TBvac-10
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.

This vaccine comprises EVs derived from Mycobacterium bovis and Escherichia coli Nissle 1917. BCG-EVs carry multiple molecules, including known protective TB antigens. The EVs will be lyophilized to ensure physicochemical stability and eliminate the need for a cold chain. Owing to their acellular nature, the vaccine is suitable for infants and children, including those living…
Read MorePNx6
PNx6 is a modular, self-assembling and self-adjuvanting peptide-based vaccine candidate that is cold-chain independent. Each peptide building blocks consist of a linear arrangement comprising a 15-leucine (15L) self-assembly inducer moiety, a 15 amino acid Mtb epitope and a 9 amino acids HLA-E binding moiety, with each moiety separated by a triple lysine spacer.
