Abstract
The present invention relates to recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) and to methods of using the same. In particular, the invention relates to recombinant MVA comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding for a structural protein of an equine encephalitis virus (EEV) excluding encoding for a capsid protein of the EEV, a composition in particular a pharmaceutical composition, a vaccine or kit comprising the recombinant MVA, uses and methods thereof e.g., suitable for treating and/or preventing a western, Venezuelan, and/or eastern equine encephalitis virus caused disease.
Claims27
A recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) comprising a poxviral promoter operably linked to a first nucleotide sequence, the first nucleotide sequence encoding a structural polyprotein of an equine encephalitis virus (EEV), wherein the nucleotide sequence encoding the capsid protein for said EEV is excluded.
A method for treating and/or preventing in a subject an equine encephalitis virus (EEV) caused disease comprising administering to the subject a recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) comprising a poxviral promoter operably linked to a first nucleotide sequence, the first nucleotide sequence encoding a structural polyprotein of an EEV, wherein the nucleotide sequence encoding the capsid protein is excluded.
