Abstract: The present application relates to Pichinde viruses with rearrangements of their open reading frames (“ORF”) in their genomes. In particular. described herein is a modified Pichinde virus genomic segment, wherein the Pichinde virus genomic segment is engineered to carry a viral ORF in a position other than the wild-type position of the ORF. Also described herein are trisegmented Pichinde virus particles comprising one L segment and two S segments or two L segments and one S segment. The Pichinde virus, described herein may be suitable for vaccines md/or treatment of diseases and/or for the use in immunotherapies.

Abstract: The present application relates generally to genetically modified arenaviruses that are suitable vaccines against neoplastic diseases, such as cancer. The arenaviruses described herein may be suitable for vaccines and/or treatment of neoplastic diseases and/or for the use in immunotherapies. In particular, provided herein are methods and compositions for treating a neoplastic disease by administering a genetically modified arenavirus in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor, wherein the arenavirus has been engineered to include a nucleotide sequence encoding a tumor antigen, tumor associated antigen or antigenic fragment thereof.

Abstract: Provided herein are genetically modified arenaviruses suitable as vaccines against neoplastic diseases or cancer. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the prevention or treatment of certain infections causing neoplastic diseases or cancer, such as infections with oncogenic viruses. Specifically, provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions, vaccines, and methods of preventing or treating diseases and conditions caused by and associated with infections with Human Papillomavirus (HPV), such as cervical cancer, anogenital cancer, head and neck cancer and skin cancers. Also provided herein are immunotherapies for the treatment of a neoplastic disease, such as a neoplastic disease caused by infection with oncogenic viruses.
