Bovine Adenoviral Vector–based H5N1 Influenza Vaccine Overcomes Exceptionally High Levels of Pre-existing Immunity Against Human Adenovirus
26 Feb 2008
Abstract excerpt
Because of the high prevalence of adenovirus (Ad) infections in humans, it is believed that pre-existing Ad-neutralizing antibodies (vector immunity) may negatively impact the immune response to vaccine antigens when delivered by human Ad (HAd) vectors. In order to evaluate whether bovine Ad subtype 3 (BAd3), a non-HAd vector, can effectively elude high levels of pre-existing vector immunity, naïve and HAd...
