Abstract: The invention relates to methods of generating an immune response for the treatment or prevention of a pathogenic infection. The invention also relates to methods of generating MHC-I, MHC-II, and/or MHC-E restricted CD8+ and/or CD4+ T cells for the treatment or prevention of a pathogenic infection.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides CCR5 binding agents with increased effector function and circulation half-life that are useful for preventing or treating HIV.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides recombinant adenovirus-associated viral vectors for the delivery of CCR5 binding agents with increased effector function and circulation half-life that are useful for treating and preventing HIV and methods of use thereof.

Abstract: The present invention provides CD8+ T cells comprising multi-specific T cell receptors and methods for making the same.

Abstract: CMV vectors that lack active UL128, UL130, UL146 and UL147 proteins that may also comprise one or more microRNA regulatory elements (MRE) that restrict expression of the CMV are provided. Immunization with CMV vectors having the described features allows selection of different CD8+ T cell responses—CD8+ T cells restricted by MHC-Ia, MHC-II, or by MHC-E.

Abstract: Methods of inducing a CD8+ T cell response to a heterologons antigen in which at least 10% of the CD8+ T cells are MHC-E restricted are disclosed. The method involves immunizing with a CMV vector that does not express UL128 and UL130 proteins. Also disclosed are recombinant CMV vectors comprising nucleic acids encoding a heterologous protein antigen, a UL40 protein, and a US28 protein but that do not express an active UL128 and UL130 protein. Also, disclosed are recombinant CMV vectors comprising nucleic acids encoding a heterologous protein antigen, but that do not express an active UL40 protein, UL128 protein, UL130 protein, and optionally a US28 protein. Also disclosed are recombinant CMV vectors comprising nucleic acids encoding a heterologous protein antigen, but that do not express an active US28 protein, UL128 protein, UL130 protein, and optionally a UL40 protein.
