Abstract
The present invention relates to a composition comprising the OspA fusion protein of SEQ ID NO: 1 (LipS1D1-S2D1), the OspA fusion protein of SEQ ID NO: 2 (Lip-S4D1-SShybD1) and the OspA fusion protein of SEQ ID NO: 3 (Lip-S5D1-S6D1) for use in a vaccine or for use in a method for eliciting an immune response in a human against Lyme disease.
Claims24
A method of eliciting an immune response in a human adult or human child against Lyme disease, comprising administering a composition comprising:
- (a) a first fusion protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1 (Lip-S1D1-S2D1), (b) a second fusion protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 2 (Lip-S4D1-S3hybD1), and (c) a third fusion protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 3 (Lip-S5D1-S6D1):
- (i) to a human adult or a human child at least two times or at least three times, wherein each dose of the composition comprises a total protein content of the three fusion proteins of 120 to 200 μg;
- or
- (ii) to a human child at least two times or at least three times, wherein each dose of the composition comprises a total protein content of the three fusion proteins of 60 to 100 μg,
- wherein the composition comprises the first, second, and third fusion proteins at a 1:1:1 weight ratio.
