  • Publication number: 20180016324
    Abstract: The present invention provides monoclonal antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof, that bind to ZIKV glycoproteins, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies and methods of use. The antibodies of the invention are useful for inhibiting or neutralizing ZIKV activity, thus providing a means of treating or preventing ZIKV infection in humans. In some embodiments, the invention provides for use of one or more antibodies that bind to the ZIKV for preventing viral attachment and/or entry into host cells. The antibodies of the invention may be used prophylactically or therapeutically and may be used alone or in combination with one or more other anti-viral agents or vaccines.

  • Publication number: 20170342442
    Abstract: This disclosure provides recombinant polycistronic nucleic acid molecules that contain at at least four nucleotide sequences that encode a protein of interest, particularly proteins that form complexes in vivo, each operably linked to a separate subgenomic promoter. In some embodiments these proteins and the complexes they form elicit potent neutralizing antibodies. Thus, presentation of herpes virus proteins using the disclosed platforms permits the generation of broad and potent immune responses useful for vaccine development.
