  • Patent number: 8168202
    Abstract: The present invention provides vaccine compositions for protection against human rotaviral disease designed for use in particular areas of the world. Human× bovine reassortant rotavirus comprising each of the four clinically most important VP7 serotypes of human rotavirus are combined with other VP7 serotypes typically found in the area of interest into a multivalent formulation which provides a high degree of infectivity and immunogenicity. Methods and an administration protocol for producing an immunogenic response without producing an increased risk of intussusception are also provided.

  • Patent number: 7150984
    Abstract: The present invention provides vaccine compositions of attenuated human rotavirus. More particularly, the attenuated human rotavirus is produced by cold passage and thus contains attenuating mutations which produce virus having a cold-adapted (ca) and temperature sensitive (ts) phenotype. The attenuated strains are used in methods for stimulating the immune system of an individual to induce protection against human rotavirus by administration of the ca attenuated rotavirus.

  • Publication number: 20040223981
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions for making a medicament and methods for the administration of a vaccine compositions for protection against human rotaviral disease without significant reactogenicity. Human×rhesus reassortant rotavirus compositions were made which when were administered during the first 7 to about 10 days of life, provided a composition which was non-reactogenic followed by booster immunizations at 16 to 18 weeks or 14 to 20 weeks, up to 1 year of age. The immune response induced by the initial neonatal administration of the live rotavirus vaccine composition protects the infant from the reactogenicity of the composition when administered as a second dose at or after 2 months of age. Administration of thee immunogenic composition also is expected to ablate or significantly diminish the increase in the excess of imussusception observed 3 to 7 days following administration of the initial dose of rotavirus vaccine at about 2 to 4 months.
