摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method of booster vaccination and to a vaccine composition for use in such a method, for inducing in a human subject a neutralizing antibody response, wherein said subject has previously received a primary vaccination against each of serotypes 1 to 4 of dengue virus and was dengue naïve before said primary vaccination, said composition comprising a dengue antigen of at least one of serotypes 1 to 4 or a nucleic acid construct capable of expressing said antigens in the subject, wherein said booster vaccination results in a 2-fold increase in the neutralizing antibody titre against each of serotypes 1 to 4. The invention is also directed to a method of inducing in a human subject a neutralizing antibody response comprising the administration of a vaccine composition, or to a vaccine composition for use in such a method, said composition comprising a dengue antigen of each of serotypes 1 to 4, or a nucleic acid construct capable of expressing in said subject a dengue antigen of each of serotypes 1 to 4; wherein said composition is administered as a primary vaccination, followed by a booster vaccination, and wherein the human subject is initially dengue naïve.
