Patent EP-0534618-A3 (EP)
Title: Peptides for inducing cytotoxic t lymphocyte responses to hepatitis b virus
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 1992-08-26
Abstract: Peptides are used to define epitopes that stimulate HLA-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity against hepatitis B virus antigens. The peptides are derived from regions of HBV nucleocapsid, envelop, polymerase and the transcriptional transactivator X protein, and are particularly useful in treating or preventing HBV infection, including methods for stimulating the immune response of chronically infected individuals to respond to HBV antigens. Pharmaceutical compositions and hepatitis B vaccines which comprise the peptides and physiologically acceptable carriers can be employed in conjunction with other HBV vaccinss to provide more effective immunity against the disease. Methods for identifying individuals who are particularly susceptible to developing chronic HBV infection and who can be targeted for treatment by the CTL peptides are also provided.

are tangential control points for two of the curves 
defining the patch. During rendering, a

nine quadrilaterals, a single quadrilateral is 
produced for the patch. Preferably, this 
quadrilateral is then divided into a pair of 
triangles.

Abstract: A mesa-structure avalanche photodiode in which a buffer region (130) in the
surface of the mesa structure (120) effectively eliminates the sharply-angled, heavily
doped part of the cap layer (110) that existed adjacent the lightly-doped n-type
multiplication layer (108) and p-type guard ring (140) before the buffer region was
formed. This reduces the electric field strength at the ends of the planar epitaxial P-N
junction (114) and prevents edge breakdown in this junction. The lateral extent
of the guard ring is defined by a window (162) formed in a masking layer (164)
prior to regrowth of the guard ring. This guard ring structure eliminates the
need to perform additional processing steps to define the lateral extent of the guard
ring and to passivate the periphery of the guard ring.
