Title:
HAPTEN-CARRIER CONJUGATES WITH BACTERIAL TOXINS HAVING A SIGNAL PEPTIDE AS CARRIER AND THEIR USE IN IMMUNOGENIC COMPOSITIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/103017
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
This invention relates to immunogenic compositions for inducing an immune response against an antigen of interest. In particular, the invention provides immunogenic compositions comprising an antigen-carrier conjugate, wherein the carrier is a bacterial toxin that contains a signal peptide. The invention also provides methods of generating immunogenic compositions with enhanced immunogenic ity, comprising adding a signal peptide to the bacterial carrier in an antigen-carrier conjugate, such as a hapten-carrier conjugate. The invention also provides methods for inducing an immune response to a hapten in a subject using these immunogenic compositions.
