Title:
SECRETORY IgA AND IgG ANTIBODIES-INDUCING AGENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/032376
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
It is intended to provide a nasal vaccine capable of inducing the production of secretory IgA and IgG antibodies which are specific to a Flavivirus such as a Hantavirus. It is also intended to provide a method of preventing infection with a Flavivirus by inducing the secretory IgA and IgG antibodies as described above. Namely, a nasal vaccine whereby favorable secretion of IgA antibody on the nasal mucosa and an IgG antibody response in the serum can be established, characterized in that a vaccine comprising an inactivated antigen originating in a Flavivirus and Poly(I:C) or a ceramic-processed surf clam powder employed as an adjuvant is nasally administered; and a method of inducing IgA and IgG antibodies specific to a Flavivirus characterized by comprising administering an inactivated antigen of a Flavivirus and Poly(I:C) or a ceramic-processed surf clam powder employed as an adjuvant to the mucosa of an respiratory organ.
