Abstract: The present invention provides a vaccine pharmaceutical composition for oral administration that enables stable storage of an influenza virus antigen and a method for producing the pharmaceutical composition. Provided is a vaccine pharmaceutical composition for oral administration containing an influenza virus antigen, an excipient, a disaccharide, and an amino acid.

Abstract: The present invention provides a dried influenza vaccine preparation in which the activity of an influenza vaccine can be stably maintained even if the preparation is stored without strict temperature control and which can be stably supplied. The present invention also provides a method for producing the dried influenza vaccine preparation. Provided is a dried influenza vaccine preparation including: an influenza vaccine antigen; a disaccharide; and an amino acid.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for inducing humoral immunity in a human or animal, that includes administering to the human or animal a mucosal vaccine composition to a mucous membrane selected from the group consisting of a human or animal 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, and rectal mucous membrane. The mucosal vaccine composition includes at least one antigen derived from a pathogen; and as an adjuvant, a lipopolysaccharide derived from at least one gram-negative bacterium selected from the group consisting of Pantoea, Acetobacter, Zymomonas, and Xanthomonas, or a salt of the lipopolysaccharide, wherein the mass ratio between a total mass of the adjuvant and a total mass of the antigen is 0.002 to 500.
