Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant viral vectors and methods of using the recombinant viral vectors to induce an immune response to influenza A viruses. The invention provides recombinant viral vectors based, for example, on the non-replicating modified vaccinia virus Ankara. When administered according to methods of the invention, the recombinant viral vectors are designed to be cross-protective and induce heterosubtypic immunity to influenza A viruses.

Abstract: The present invention relates, in general, to materials and methods for production of an improved vaccine against influenza virus, wherein the vaccine comprises a reassortant virus having a hemagglutinin gene and a neuraminidase gene from the same influenza A virus subtype or influenza B strain of virus and internal genes from a different influenza A virus subtype or influenza B strain of virus. In one aspect, the HA and NA genes and the internal genes are from a highly pathogenic H5N1 strain of influenza A.

Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant viral vectors and methods of using the recombinant viral vectors to induce an immune response to yellow fever virus. The invention provides recombinant viral vectors based on the non-replicating modified vaccinia virus Ankara or based on a D4R-defective vaccinia virus. When administered according to methods of the invention, the recombinant viral vectors induce a broad immune response to yellow fever virus and demonstrate an excellent safety profile.

Abstract: A liquid or liquid-frozen composition comprising: a modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) virus or variant or derivative thereof and mannitol, wherein mannitol is the sole stabilization agent of the composition. The mannitol may provide a stabilizing effect at 0 to +10° C. or in a liquid-frozen composition, for example between ?10° C. and ?30° C. or between ?20° C. and ?23.5° C. The MVA may be used as a vaccine or for use in gene therapy, virotherapy, immunotherapy, or cancer therapy in a mammal, preferably a human.

Abstract: The present invention provides recombinant poxviruses, such as vaccinia virus, that contain an integrated exogenous sequence, such as a foreign gene, encoding a prodrug converting polypeptide that can convert a prodrug to a drug that prevents virus replication or is otherwise toxic to the virus. The recombinant poxviruses can be suitable for use as vaccines. The invention also provides, among other things, methods of inhibiting virus replication, methods of vaccination and methods of treating vaccinated subjects showing signs or otherwise at risk for of vaccination-induced disease.
