CA 2724570

The present invention relates to an alphaviral replicase, especially Semliki Forest Virus replicase, or an expression vector encoding an alphaviral replicase, said alphaviral replicase comprising RNA dependent RNA polymerase activity, for use as an immune system modulating adjuvant. The alphaviral replicase may be used in the combination with a vaccine providing an adjuvant function therein, which when present therein will generate an additional boost to the immune response in the subject to whom this combination is administered as compared to when the vaccine alone is administered to a subject in need thereof. The aim of the present invention is to provide an efficient and easy to administer, species-independent adjuvant which will provide advantages to the adjuvants used together with vaccines today.

L'invention concerne une réplicase d'alphavirus, notamment une réplicase  du virus de la forêt de Semliki ou un vecteur d'expression codant pour une réplicase d'alphavirus, ladite réplicase comprenant un ARN dépendant de l'activité d'une ARN polymérase, qui s'utilise comme adjuvant de modulation du système immunitaire. La réplicase d'alphavirus peut être utilisée en combinaison avec un vaccin pour conférer à celui-ci une fonction d'adjuvant, et activer davantage par sa présence la réponse immunitaire du sujet auquel cette combinaison est administrée par rapport au vaccin administré seul à un sujet nécessitant un tel traitement. L'invention vise à produire un adjuvant indépendant de l'espèce, efficace et s'administrant facilement, qui confère des avantages aux adjuvants utilisés actuellement avec des vaccins.
