Described herein are methods comprising administering to a mammalian subject an effective amount of an annexin chimeric fusion protein, wherein the annexin chimeric fusion protein comprises at least one immunogenic antigen, thereby enhancing the antigen specific immune response relative to administration of the immunogenic antigen alone. Methods and kits for treating or preventing recurrence of hyper proliferating diseases, e.g., cancer, are described. A method may comprise priming a mammal by administering to the mammal an effective amount of a chemotherapeutic agent and boosting the mammal by administering to the mammal an effective amount of an annexin chimeric fusion.
A method of inducing or enhancing an antigen-specific immune response in a mammal, comprising administering to the mammal an effective amount of an annexin chimeric fusion protein, wherein the annexin chimeric fusion protein comprises at least one immunogenic antigen, thereby enhancing the antigen specific immune response relative to administration of the immogenic antigen alone.
