Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major and global problem of public health. An effective TB subunit vaccine is urgently needed. Proper selection of the delivery system for the vaccine is crucial for inducing an appropriate immune response tailored to control the target pathogen. In this study, we compared the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of CMFO subunit vaccines against primary progressive TB in two different adjuvant systems: the MTO oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion composed of monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL), trehalose-6,60-dibehenate (TDB), and oil in water emulsion MF59 and the DMT liposome containing dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide (DDA), monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL), and trehalose-6,60-dibehenate (TDB). Our results demonstrated that the DMT-adjuvanted CMFO could confer more significant protection against M. tuberculosis infection than the CMFO/MTO did in mice. In particular, the adjuvant DMT showed a stronger ability than the O/W emulsion to adjuvant CMFO subunit vaccine and enhanced protection, attributed to elicit Th1-biased responses, strong Th1/Th17 cytokine responses, and IFN-γ+ or IL-2+ T cell responses. Therefore, our findings demonstrate that the liposome delivery system shows more effectiveness to adjuvant TB subunit vaccine than O/W emulsion and highlight the importance of adjuvant formulation for the better efficacy of a protein vaccine.

Aim: We tested the safety and immunogenicity of a novel vaccine in patients with resected high-risk melanoma. Patients & methods: HLA-A2-positive patients with resected Stage II–IV melanoma were randomized to receive up to three vaccinations of melanoma-associated peptide (MART-1a) combined with a stable oil-in-water emulsion (SE) either with the Toll-like receptor 4 agonist glucopyranosyl lipid A (GLA-SE–Schedule 1) or alone (SE–Schedule 2). Safety and immunogenicity of the vaccines were monitored. Results: A total of 23 patients were registered. No treatment-related grade 3 or higher adverse events were observed. Increases in MART-1a-specific T cells were seen in 70 and 63% of Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 patients, respectively. Conclusion: Both vaccine schedules were well-tolerated and resulted in an increase in MART-1a-specific T cells. Clinical Trial registration: NCT02320305 ( ClinicalTrials.gov ).
