Vaccine Comparison

D46/NS2/N/ΔM2-2-HindIII
Vaccine Information
  • Manufacturer: Charles river Laboratories
  • Type: Live, attenuated vaccine
  • Status: Licensed
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: Human
  • M2-2 gene engineering:
    • Type: Deletion
    • Description: (McFarland et al., 2020)The vaccine uses backbone of LId/M2-2 vaccine but has a 234 nucleotide M2-2 deletion with the same structure as in MEDI/m2-2
    • Detailed Gene Information: Click Here.
  • Immunization Route: intranasal immunization
  • Description: (McFarland et al., 2020)The vaccine, D46/NS2/N/ΔM2-2-HindIII, is a cDNA-derived version of RSV subgroup A, strain A2. In addition, D46/NS2/N/ΔM2-2-HindIII has the MEDI/ΔM2-2 assignments at the only 2 amino acid positions that differ between MEDI/ΔM2-2 and LID/ΔM2-2. D46/NS2/N/ΔM2-2-HindIII contains the complete 112-nucleotide 3’ noncoding region of the SH gene that is present in biological RSV A2 but was deleted in LID/ΔM2-2. D46/NS2/N/ΔM2-2-HindIII was recovered from cDNA in qualified Vero cells.

  • Host Species for Licensed Use: None
  • M2-2 gene engineering:
    • Type: Recombinant protein preparation

Mnull RSV
Vaccine Information
  • Type: Live, attenuated vaccine
  • Status: Clinical trial
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: None
  • Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Baboons
  • Antigen: Fusion (F) protein
  • M protein gene engineering:
    • Type: Recombinant protein preparation
    • Description: Deletion of RSV M protein. (Ivanov et al., 2021)
    • Detailed Gene Information: Click Here.
  • Preparation: RSV M protein was deleted (Ivanov et al., 2021).
  • Immunization Route: intranasal immunization
  • Description: Mnull RSV is derived from a human RSV A2 strain. The gene for the RSV M protein has been deleted. Mnull RSV is grown in HEp-2 respiratory epithelial cells transfected to express the viral M protein. The vaccine virus is fully infectious, and synthesizes all of its proteins (except M) after entering HEp-2 cells (Ivanov et al., 2021).
