متن کاملSpecific issues in the design and implementation of an efficacy trial for a Lyme disease vaccine.
Lyme disease is an emerging infection that has now become the most commonly reported vector-borne disease in the United States. In the 20 years since its initial description, scientific and technological advances have led to candidate vaccines for the prevention of Lyme disease. Recombinant outer surface protein A (OspA) vaccines have been successful in protecting mice in tick-challenge experim...
متن کاملA vaccine consisting of recombinant Borrelia burgdorferi outer-surface protein A to prevent Lyme disease. Recombinant Outer-Surface Protein A Lyme Disease Vaccine Study Consortium.
BACKGROUND Lyme disease is a multisystem inflammatory disease caused by infection with the tick-borne spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi and is the most common vector-borne infection in the United States. We assessed the efficacy of a recombinant vaccine consisting of outer-surface protein A (OspA) without adjuvant in subjects at risk for Lyme disease. METHODS For this double-blind trial, 10,305...
متن کاملHantaan/Andes virus DNA vaccine elicits a broadly cross-reactive neutralizing antibody response in nonhuman primates.
At least four hantavirus species cause disease with prominent renal involvement-hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS); and several hantavirus strains cause disease with significant pulmonary involvement-hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). The most prevalent and lethal hantaviruses associated with HFRS and HPS are Hantaan virus (HTNV) and Andes virus (ANDV), respectively. Here, we constr...
