In the recent decade, epidemic meningitis in the African meningitis belt has mostly been caused by Neisseria meningitidis of serogroups A, W and X (MenA, MenW and MenX, respectively). There is at present no licensed vaccine available to prevent MenX meningococcal disease. To explore a trivalent MenAWX vaccine concept, we have studied the immunogenicity in mice of MenX outer membrane vesicles (X-OMV)...
Meningococci of serogroups A and W (MenA and MenW) are the main causes of epidemic bacterial meningitis outbreaks in sub-Saharan Africa. In this study we prepared a detergent extracted outer membrane vesicle (dOMV) vaccine from representative African MenA and MenW strains, and compared the immunogenicity of this vaccine with existing meningococcal conjugate and polysaccharide (PS) vaccines in mice...
A serogroup B meningococcal outer membrane vesicle (OMV) vaccine was delivered either intranasally or intramuscularly to 12 and 10 volunteers, respectively. The mucosal vaccine was given as four weekly doses followed by a fifth dose after 5 months; each dose consisted of OMVs equivalent to 250μg of protein. The intramuscular (i.m.) vaccine, consisting of the same OMVs but adsorbed to Al(OH) 3...
