  • Publication number: 20230405106
    Abstract: The present invention provides a chimeric protein that has a modular structure and comprises a receptor binding domain (RBD) from the spike protein (S) of coronaviruses, a segment able to bind the core antigen from the Hepatitis B Virus (HBcAg), a segment including six consecutive histidine residues (HHHHHH), and two spacer segments. In this chimeric protein the aforementioned segments are arranged in a specific order, and the protein is able to form hybrid nanoparticles with HBcAg. The chimeric protein is part of vaccine compositions used for the prevention of coronavirus infections. Therefore, the invention discloses a method for the prevention of coronavirus infections, whereby a vaccine composition comprising said chimeric protein is administered.

  • Patent number: 11759517
    Abstract: This invention reveals the pharmaceutical composition that includes the surface antigen (HBsAg) of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and the antigen of the nucleocapsid (or core, HBcAg) of the same virus. The HBcAg of this composition contains messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) at a proportion of over 45% of the total amount of ribonucleic acid (RNA) in this antigen. Because of the changes in the constitution of the antigens forming it, the composition of the invention is useful for the prevention or treatment of chronic hepatitis B. It also covers the use of this pharmaceutical composition in the production of a drug for immuno-prophylaxis or immunotherapy against HBV infection, and its use to increase the immune response against an additional antigen that is co-administered with the mixture of these antigens.

  • Publication number: 20230190866
    Abstract: Pharmaceutical composition comprising the APL-type peptide identified as SEQ ID NO: 1, as an inhibitor of a state of hyperinflammation characterized by an increase in cytokines or interleukins and inflammatory molecules, which increase their concentration until reaching the state defined as “cytokine storm”. The sucrose concentrations in said composition increase the biological activity of the peptide, facilitating its intravenous application. Said peptide in a pharmaceutical composition is useful for the manufacture of a drug to treat diseases related to hyperinflammation, such as Covid-19, dengue, macrophage activation syndrome, respiratory sepsis and chimeric antigen receptor T-Cell therapies, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. It also discloses a method for the treatment of said diseases, administering a therapeutically effective amount of the composition.

  • Patent number: 9463235
    Abstract: Vaccine compositions that comprise at least one antigen based on the dengue virus (DV) capsid protein and the oligonucleotide identified as SEQ ID NO 1. The vaccine composition that comprises a fusion protein formed by the DV2 capsid and domain III of the envelope protein of the same serotype, together with the oligonucleotide identified as SEQ ID NO 1, gives rise to higher levels of cellular immune response and protection in mice as compared with that produced by formulations of the same antigen together with oligonucleotides with potential adjuvant capacity which were reported previously. The efficacy of the compositions that comprise the SEQ ID NO 1 oligonucleotide has been demonstrated in non-human primates. These compositions may be monovalent, bivalent or tetravalent and are combined in different immunization regimes with a view to inducing a functional immune response to the four viral serotypes.

  • Patent number: 9364524
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition using natural gonadotropin—releasing hormone (GnRH), and/or some of its mimetic peptides, indistinctly bound by its amino or carboxyl extremes to a carrier molecule; in one case by its carboxyl extreme and in the other case by the amino terminal extreme, thus eliciting a faster and more potent immunological response against the endogenous GnRH hormone. This finally leads to the ablation of the GnRH and consequently of the rest of the involved hormones in the stream GnRH/LH-FSH/Testosterone-(estrogens). An advantage of this formulation consists on facilitating the exposition to the immune system of a greater number of epitopes of the GnRH or its mimetics, minimizing thus the steric hindrance produced by the carriers.
