  • Publication number: 20140348791
    Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5) vectors which harbor chimeric capsid proteins including substitutions of the corresponding regions from adenovirus serotypes having a lower seroprevalence relative to Ad5. In particular, the chimeric capsid includes modifications of both the adenoviral hexon and fiber proteins. The invention also provides methods for the treatment of diseases or disorders caused by infective agent(s) by administering the adenoviral vector(s) to a subject (e.g., a mammal, such as a human).

  • Patent number: 7741099
    Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant adenoviral vectors based on adenoviruses that encounter pre-existing immunity in a minority of the human population and which harbor a chimeric capsid. The chimeric capsid comprises fiber proteins that have at least the knob domain of a human adenovirus that binds to the Coxsackievirus and Adenovirus Receptor (CAR) and a hexon protein from an adenovirus serotype that encounters pre-existing immunity in a low percentage of the human population.
