Development of Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara-Based Vaccines: Advantages and Applications [PDF]

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
Modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) is a promising viral vector for vaccine development. MVA is well studied and has been widely used for vaccination against smallpox in Germany. This review describes the history of the origin of the virus and its properties as a vaccine, including a high safety profile.

Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara as a Viral Vector for Vaccine Candidates against Chikungunya Virus [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
There is a need to develop a highly effective vaccine against the emerging chikungunya virus (CHIKV), a mosquito-borne Alphavirus that causes severe disease in humans consisting of acute febrile illness, followed by chronic debilitating polyarthralgia and polyarthritis. In this review, we provide a brief history of the development of the first poxvirus

A vital gene for modified vaccinia virus Ankara replication in human cells [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Vaccinia virus (VACV), the prototype orthopoxvirus, is the first live viral vaccine used to protect against smallpox, one of the most feared infectious diseases of humans (1). This outstanding achievement was possible because even as the various orthopoxviruses evolved and diversified they often retained major parts of their virion composition in ...

Hazard Characterization of Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara Vector: What Are the Knowledge Gaps? [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) is the vector of choice for human and veterinary applications due to its strong safety profile and immunogenicity in vivo. The use of MVA and MVA-vectored vaccines against human and animal diseases must comply with regulatory requirements as they pertain to environmental risk assessment, particularly the ...

Recombinant Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara Generating Ebola Virus-Like Particles [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2017
ABSTRACT There are currently no approved therapeutics or vaccines to treat or protect against the severe hemorrhagic fever and death caused by Ebola virus (EBOV). Ebola virus-like particles (EBOV VLPs) consisting of the matrix protein VP40, the glycoprotein (GP), and the nucleoprotein (NP) are highly immunogenic and protective in nonhuman ...

Recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara-based malaria vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Review of Vaccines, 2015
A safe and effective malaria vaccine is a crucial part of the roadmap to malaria elimination/eradication by the year 2050. Viral-vectored vaccines based on adenoviruses and modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) expressing malaria immunogens are currently being used in heterologous prime-boost regimes in clinical trials for induction of strong antigen ...

Modified Vaccinia virus Ankara-based vaccines in the era of personalized immunotherapy of cancer [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2017
While interest in immunotherapies is renewed by the successful introduction of immune checkpoint blocking agent in the clinic, advances in genome sequencing are opening new possibilities in the design of increasingly personalized vaccines. Personalization of medicine can now be realistically contemplated at the single patient level. Unlike the previous

Three-Year Durability of Immune Responses Induced by HIV-DNA and HIV-Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara and Effect of a Late HIV-Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara Boost in Tanzanian Volunteers [PDF]

open access: yesAIDS Research and Human Retroviruses, 2017
We explored the duration of immune responses and the effect of a late third HIV-modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) boost in HIV-DNA primed and HIV-MVA boosted Tanzanian volunteers. Twenty volunteers who had previously received three HIV-DNA and two HIV-MVA immunizations were given a third HIV-MVA immunization 3 years after the second HIV-MVA boost ...
