Abstract: The invention relates to nasally-administered vaccine compositions effective in naive subjects such as children. Further, the vaccine composition is suitable for vaccinating the general population during a pandemic. One aspect of the invention is directed to the paediatric use of the vaccine of the invention including a vaccine effective in children against seasonal influenza virus strains. A further aspect of the invention is directed to subjects of all age groups when the composition is for pandemic use.

Abstract: The present invention relates in a first aspect to a vaccine kit comprising a) a first vaccine component comprising i) a first set of one or more containers, each container containing a vaccine composition for intranasal administration, b) optionally a second vaccine component comprising a second set of one or more containers, each container containing a vaccine composition for intranasal administration, and c) optionally instructions for use, wherein each container of the first and second set of containers contains a volume of the vaccine composition from about 5 microliter to about 400 microliter. The present invention also relates to: An administration regimen for intranasal administration of a vaccine composition for use in immunizing a human. A device for use in administration of vaccine compositions.

Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for the delivery of polynucleotide cancer vaccines to increase T cell response and reduce pain due to long electric waveform application and muscle contractions. The method includes the steps of: (a.) administering a polynucleotide cancer vaccine into the skin at an administration site, (b.) applying a needle electrode to the skin in the vicinity of the administration site, and (c.) applying a sequence of at least three electrical waveforms to deliver the polynucleotide cancer vaccine into skin cells by electroporation. The sequence has at least one of the following characteristics {1} at least two of the waveforms differ in amplitude, {2} at least two of the waveforms differ in width, and (3) a first waveform interval for a first set of two of the waveforms is different from a second waveform interval for a second set of two of the waveforms.
