Abstract: The present invention aims at providing a mucosal vaccine composition that can be administered to an intraoral mucous membrane, ocular mucous membrane, ear mucous membrane, genital mucous membrane, pharyngeal mucous membrane, respiratory tract mucous membrane, bronchial mucous membrane, pulmonary mucous membrane, gastric mucous membrane, enteric mucous membrane, or rectal mucous membrane, that is useful as a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for infectious diseases or cancers, and is capable of safely and effectively inducing the systemic immune response and mucosal immune response.

Abstract: The present invention provides a film-form base having one or more sugars or sugar alcohols dispersed as fine particles therein, and also provides a film-form preparation containing the base and a drug. The base is produced by dispersing, in an organic solvent having a solubility parameter of 9.7 or higher, an edible polymer soluble in water and the organic solvent, and particles of one or two or more compounds selected from the group consisting of mono- to hexasaccharide sugars and sugar alcohols thereof which have an average particle size of 0.1 ?m to 60 ?m and are insoluble in an organic solvent. The present invention can therefore provide oral film-form base and preparation which have a rapid dissolution profile in the mouth and sufficient film strength, and provide a reduced sticky sensation attributed to the water-soluble polymer in the mouth and an improved feel when handled with the fingers.
