Preclinical safety and immunogenicity of Streptococcus pyogenes (Strep A) peptide vaccines
8 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract We have developed two candidate vaccines to protect against multiple strains of Strep A infections. The candidates are combinatorial synthetic peptide vaccines composed of a M protein epitope (J8 or p*17) and a non-M protein epitope (K4S2). To enhance immunogenicity, each peptide is conjugated to the carrier protein CRM197 (CRM) and formulated with aluminium hydroxide adjuvant Alhydrogel (Alum) to make...
