Title: Compositions to enhance immune responses against HPV (human papilloma virus) protein antigens and against tumours exhibiting an HPV protein antigen
Inventor: MIZZEN LEE
IPC: A61K39/00
Filed: 1998-03-20
Abstract: Described are compositions for inducing an immune response, preferably a cellular or cell-mediated cytolytic immune response, to human papillomavirus (HPV) protein antigens displayed by HPV or exhibited by infected cells.  The infected cells include cells from cervical and other tumours. In one embodiment, compositions comprise an HPV protein antigen joined to a stress protein (or heat shock protein (Hsp)).  The HPV protein antigen may be joined to the stress protein by chemical conjugation or noncovalently using linking moieties, or the HPV protein antigen and the stress protein may be joined in a fusion protein containing both HPV protein antigen and stress protein sequences. In another embodiment, compositions comprise an expression vector including, in expressible form, sequences encoding the HPV protein antigen and sequences encoding the stress protein.  The expression vector can be introduced into cells of a subject, or it can be used to transduce cells of the subject ex vivo, resulting in the expression of an HPV protein antigen-stress protein fusion protein that will stimulate the subject's immune response to the HPV protein antigen. Also described are compositions comprising a stress protein linked to an HPV antigen and another pharmacologically acceptable component, to stress protein-HPV protein antigen fusions and conjugates and to expression vectors encoding and capable of directing the expression in a subject's cells of a fusion protein comprising a stress protein and an HPV protein antigen sequence.  The uses of these compositions to induce immune responses against HPV and HPV protein antigen-exhibiting cells including HPV-associated tumours is also described.
