DNA ENCODED NANOPARTICLE VACCINES AGAINST HUMAN PAPILLOMAVIRUS, AND METHODS OF USE THEREOFCROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 727,909, filed December 4, 2024 which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.REFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY

[0002] This application contains a Sequence Listing, which is submitted electronically via EFS-Web as an XML Document formatted sequence listing with a file name “206193-0149- OOWO_SequenceListing.xml,” having a creation date of December 1, 2025, and having a size of 150,822 bytes. The sequence listing submitted via EFS-Web is part of the specification and is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND

[0003] Papillomavirus are small DNA viruses that comprise up to seven early genes and two late genes. Generally, papilloma virus early genes are designated E1-E7, and papilloma virus late genes are designated LI and L2. Several species of animals can be infected by members of the papillomavirus family.

[0004] Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection is common and can be transmitted sexually. HPV have been differentiated into 56 or more types based upon DNA sequence homology. HPV type 16, which causes epithelial dysplasia and other lesions, is often associated with an increased risk of cancer, particularly in situ and invasive carcinomas of the cervix, vagina, vulva and anal canal. Nearly 88% of cervical cancers worldwide are the result of HPV subtypes 16, 18, 45, 31, 33, 52 and 58.

[0005] There remains a need for improved vaccines and methods for preventing and treating HPV infection, and diseases or disorders associated with HPV infections such as cervical cancer and / or head and neck carcinomas.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0006] Figure 1A through Figure IF depict data demonstrating the stabilized nanoparticle design workflow. Figure 1 A provides a flow diagram showing that the desired protein sequence is run through structural prediction algorithms such as AlphaFold2 and RoseTTafold2. Confidence metrics associated with the structural prediction help determine ordered regions from disordered regions, along with visual inspection of the predicted structure. This results in the design of a minimized ‘foldable’ domain. Additional design stabilization can be engineered in; here, disulfide scanning was used to introduce pairs of disulfide bonds to stabilize local folds. Finally, the resultant candidate designs are scaffolded onto a self-assembling 60-mer nanoparticle scaffold. Figure IB shows an example of structural prediction. The top ranked model of wild type (WT) E7 from RoseTTaFold2, colored by per-residue RMS-error. Red residues are lower confidence while blue residues are higher confidence. Figure 1C shows an example of a confidence metric graph. Predicted local distance difference test (pLDDT) scores from the top ranked Alphafold2 prediction score of WT E7 is depicted. Scores above 80 are considered high confidence and guide selection of structurally intact domains. Residues that comprise the selected foldable domain are shown in yellow. Figure ID shows an example of a selected foldable domain. Using confidence metric scores and visual inspection, residues that comprise a purported foldable domain were selected. The sequence was then re-predicted to confirm purported structural integrity, and the top ranked AlphaFold2 prediction is shown. Figure IE shows an example of an iterative foldable domain design. WT E7 can form a dimer. This guided creation of a covalent dimer of the truncated domain design in Figure ID). The top ranked Alphafold2 prediction of the designed dimeric sequence is shown. Figure IF shows an example of addition design stabilization. A disulfide scanning algorithm was used to select pairs of residues that could be mutated to cysteine to form a new disulfide bridge. Here, the scanner was applied to find disulfide pairs that bridge the dimeric interface to create additional stabilization of the fold. The engineered disulfide bridge is depicted in stick representation and colored red.

[0007] Figure 2A through Figure 2E depicts the structural prediction and confidence metrics for E7 and associated designs. Figure 2A and Figure 2B provide additional structural prediction outputs for E7 FL, colored by confidence metrics. Red residues are lower confidence while blue residues are higher confidence.

[0019] Figure 14A and Figure 14B depicts predicted immunogenic epitopes in humans for designed nanoparticles. Peptides predicted to bind human HLA alleles were determined using NetMHCpan using the ‘HLA supertype representative’ set of loci. The epitope corresponding to a strong HLA binder is specified, or shown as NA if no strong binders were predicted. If that sequence is present in the designed nanoparticle, it is highlighted green to show predicted immunogenicity. Binding peptides (9-mers) were predicted from the E7_FL_ pRb sequence (Figure 14A) or E6 FL p53 sequence (Figure 14A). Italics indicate residues that are mutated in the designed nanoparticle.

[0020] Figure 15A and Figure 15B depict data demonstrating expanded epitope targeting of nanoparticle vaccines. Figure 15 A) Predicted binding of common human alleles to epitopes from the indicated nanoparticles. Peptides predicted to have strong binding to each supertype representative allele were predicted using NetMHCPan for both E7 and E6. If the epitope for the peptide was present in the indicated nanoparticle, then the allele is graphed by its frequency in the global human population. E7 nanoparticles were predicted against E7_FL_ pRb ; E6 nanoparticles were predicted against E6_FL_ p53; the cocktail was predicted against both. Figure 15B) Overview of expanded epitope nanoparticle vaccine workflow. This approach usescomputational tools to design stabilized, more-full length cancer antigens scaffolded onto nanoparticles with the aim of providing maximal immunogenic epitopes to the immune system. This allows for greater diversity of T-cell responses and subsequently should allow a greater portion of the population to generate CTL responses to the vaccine.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. In case of conflict, the present document, including definitions, will control. Preferred methods and materials are described below, although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described hereincan be used in practice or testing of the present invention. All publications, patent applications, patents and other references mentioned herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety. The materials, methods, and examples disclosed herein are illustrative only and not intended to be limiting.

[0025] The terms “comprise(s),” “include(s),” “having,” “has,” “can,” “contain(s),” and variants thereof, as used herein, are intended to be open-ended transitional phrases, terms, or words that do not preclude the possibility of additional acts or structures. The singular forms “a,” “and” and “the” include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The present disclosure also contemplates other embodiments “comprising,” “consisting of’ and “consisting essentially of,” the embodiments or elements presented herein, whether explicitly set forth or not.

[0026] “Adjuvant” as used herein means any molecule added to the vaccine described herein to enhance the immunogenicity of the antigen.

[0027] “Antibody” as used herein means an antibody of classes IgG, IgM, IgA, IgD or IgE, or fragments, fragments or derivatives thereof, including Fab, F(ab')2, Fd, and single chain antibodies, diabodies, bispecific antibodies, bifunctional antibodies and derivatives thereof. The antibody can be an antibody isolated from the serum sample of mammal, a polyclonal antibody, affinity purified antibody, or mixtures thereof which exhibits sufficient binding specificity to a desired epitope or a sequence derived therefrom.

[0028] “Coding sequence” or “encoding nucleic acid” as used herein means the nucleic acids (RNA or DNA molecule) that comprise a nucleotide sequence which encodes a protein. The coding sequence can further include initiation and termination signals operably linked to regulatory elements including a promoter and polyadenylation signal capable of directing expression in the cells of an individual or mammal to which the nucleic acid is administered.

[0029] “Complement” or “complementary” as used herein means Watson-Crick (e.g., A- T / U and C-G) or Hoogsteen base pairing between nucleotides or nucleotide analogs of nucleic acid molecules.

[0030] “Consensus” or “Consensus Sequence” as used herein may mean a synthetic nucleic acid sequence, or corresponding polypeptide sequence, constructed based on analysis of an alignment of multiple subtypes of a particular antigen. The sequence may be used to induce broad immunity against multiple subtypes, serotypes, or strains of a particular antigen. Syntheticantigens, such as fusion proteins, may be manipulated to generate consensus sequences (or consensus antigens).

[0031] “Electroporation,” “electro-permeabilization,” or “electro-kinetic enhancement” (“EP”) as used interchangeably herein means the use of a transmembrane electric field pulse to induce microscopic pathways (pores) in a bio-membrane; their presence allows biomolecules such as plasmids, oligonucleotides, siRNA, drugs, ions, and water to pass from one side of the cellular membrane to the other.

[0032] “Fragment” as used herein means a nucleic acid sequence or a portion thereof that encodes a polypeptide capable of eliciting an immune response in a mammal. The fragments can be DNA fragments selected from at least one of the various nucleotide sequences that encode protein fragments set forth below.

[0033] “Fragment” or “immunogenic fragment” with respect to polypeptide sequences means a polypeptide capable of eliciting an immune response in a mammal that cross reacts with a full length wild type strain HPV antigen. Fragments of consensus proteins can comprise at least 10%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90% or at least 95% of a consensus protein.

[0034] As used herein, the term “genetic construct” refers to the DNA or RNA molecules that comprise a nucleotide sequence which encodes a protein. The coding sequence includes initiation and termination signals operably linked to regulatory elements including a promoter and polyadenylation signal capable of directing expression in the cells of the individual to whom the nucleic acid molecule is administered. As used herein, the term “expressible form” refers to gene constructs that contain the necessary regulatory elements operable linked to a codingsequence that encodes a protein such that when present in the cell of the individual, the coding sequence will be expressed.

[0035] “Identical” or “identity” as used herein in the context of two or more nucleic acids or polypeptide sequences, means that the sequences have a specified percentage of residues that are the same over a specified region. The percentage can be calculated by optimally aligning the two sequences, comparing the two sequences over the specified region, determining the number of positions at which the identical residue occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the specified region, and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. In cases where the two sequences are of different lengths or the alignment produces one or more staggered ends and the specified region of comparison includes only a single sequence, the residues of single sequence are included in the denominator but not the numerator of the calculation. When comparing DNA and RNA, thymine (T) and uracil (U) can be considered equivalent. Identity can be performed manually or by using a computer sequence algorithm such as BLAST or BLAST 2.0.

[0036] “Immune response” as used herein means the activation of a host’s immune system, e.g., that of a mammal, in response to the introduction of antigen. The immune response can be in the form of a cellular or humoral response, or both.

[0037] “Nucleic acid” or “oligonucleotide” or “polynucleotide” as used herein means at least two nucleotides covalently linked together. The depiction of a single strand also defines the sequence of the complementary strand. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses the complementary strand of a depicted single strand. Many variants of a nucleic acid can be used for the same purpose as a given nucleic acid. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses substantially identical nucleic acids and complements thereof. A single strand provides a probe that can hybridize to a target sequence under stringent hybridization conditions. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses a probe that hybridizes under stringent hybridization conditions.

[0038] Nucleic acids can be single stranded or double stranded, or can contain portions of both double stranded and single stranded sequence. The nucleic acid can be DNA, both genomic and cDNA, RNA, or a hybrid, where the nucleic acid can contain combinations of deoxyribo- and ribo-nucleotides, and combinations of bases including uracil, adenine, thymine, cytosine,guanine, inosine, xanthine hypoxanthine, isocytosine and isoguanine. Nucleic acids can be obtained by chemical synthesis methods or by recombinant methods.

[0039] “Operably linked” as used herein means that expression of a gene is under the control of a promoter with which it is spatially connected. A promoter can be positioned 5' (upstream) or 3' (downstream) of a gene under its control. The distance between the promoter and a gene can be approximately the same as the distance between that promoter and the gene it controls in the gene from which the promoter is derived. As is known in the art, variation in this distance can be accommodated without loss of promoter function.

[0040] A “peptide,” “protein,” or “polypeptide” as used herein can mean a linked sequence of amino acids and can be natural, synthetic, or a modification or combination of natural and synthetic.

[0041] “Promoter” as used herein means a synthetic or naturally-derived molecule which is capable of conferring, activating or enhancing expression of a nucleic acid in a cell. A promoter can comprise one or more specific transcriptional regulatory sequences to further enhance expression and / or to alter the spatial expression and / or temporal expression of same. A promoter can also comprise distal enhancer or repressor elements, which can be located as much as several thousand base pairs from the start site of transcription. A promoter can be derived from sources including viral, bacterial, fungal, plants, insects, and animals. A promoter can regulate the expression of a gene component constitutively or differentially with respect to cell, the tissue or organ in which expression occurs or, with respect to the developmental stage at which expression occurs, or in response to external stimuli such as physiological stresses, pathogens, metal ions, or inducing agents. Representative examples of promoters include the bacteriophage T7 promoter, bacteriophage T3 promoter, SP6 promoter, lac operator-promoter, tac promoter, SV40 late promoter, SV40 early promoter, RSV-LTR promoter, CMV IE promoter, SV40 early promoter or SV40 late promoter and the CMV IE promoter.

[0042] “Signal peptide” and “leader sequence” are used interchangeably herein and refer to an amino acid sequence that can be linked at the amino terminus of a HPV protein set forth herein. Signal peptides / leader sequences typically direct localization of a protein. Signal peptides / leader sequences used herein preferably facilitate secretion of the protein from the cell in which it is produced. Signal peptides / leader sequences are often cleaved from the remainder ofthe protein, often referred to as the mature protein, upon secretion from the cell.

[0045] “Treatment” or “treating,” as used herein can mean protecting of an animal from a disease through means of preventing, suppressing, repressing, or completely eliminating the disease. Preventing the disease involves administering a vaccine of the present invention to an animal prior to onset of the disease. Suppressing the disease involves administering a vaccine of the present invention to an animal after induction of the disease but before its clinical appearance. Repressing the disease involves administering a vaccine of the present invention to an animal after clinical appearance of the disease.

[0046] “Variant” used herein with respect to a nucleic acid means (i) a portion or fragment of a referenced nucleotide sequence; (ii) the complement of a referenced nucleotide sequence or portion thereof; (iii) a nucleic acid that is substantially identical to a referenced nucleic acid or the complement thereof; or (iv) a nucleic acid that hybridizes under stringent conditions to the referenced nucleic acid, complement thereof, or a sequences substantially identical thereto.

[0047] Variant can further be defined as a peptide or polypeptide that differs in amino acid sequence by the insertion, deletion, or conservative substitution of amino acids, but retain atleast one biological activity. Representative examples of “biological activity” include the ability to be bound by a specific antibody or to promote an immune response. Variant can also mean a protein with an amino acid sequence that is substantially identical to a referenced protein with an amino acid sequence that retains at least one biological activity. A conservative substitution of an amino acid, i.e., replacing an amino acid with a different amino acid of similar properties (e.g., hydrophilicity, degree and distribution of charged regions) is recognized in the art as typically involving a minor change. These minor changes can be identified, in part, by considering the hydropathic index of amino acids, as understood in the art. Kyte et al., J. Mol. Biol. 157:105-132 (1982). The hydropathic index of an amino acid is based on a consideration of its hydrophobicity and charge. It is known in the art that amino acids of similar hydropathic indexes can be substituted and still retain protein function. In one aspect, amino acids having hydropathic indexes of ±2 are substituted. The hydrophilicity of amino acids can also be used to reveal substitutions that would result in proteins retaining biological function. A consideration of the hydrophilicity of amino acids in the context of a peptide permits calculation of the greatest local average hydrophilicity of that peptide, a useful measure that has been reported to correlate well with antigenicity and immunogenicity. Substitution of amino acids having similar hydrophilicity values can result in peptides retaining biological activity, for example immunogenicity, as is understood in the art. Substitutions can be performed with amino acids having hydrophilicity values within ±2 of each other. Both the hydrophobicity index and the hydrophilicity value of amino acids are influenced by the particular side chain of that amino acid. Consistent with that observation, amino acid substitutions that are compatible with biological function are understood to depend on the relative similarity of the amino acids, and particularly the side chains of those amino acids, as revealed by the hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, charge, size, and other properties.

[0048] A variant may be a nucleic acid sequence that is substantially identical over the full length of the full gene sequence or a fragment thereof. The nucleic acid sequence may be 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100% identical over the full length of the gene sequence or a fragment thereof. A variant may be an amino acid sequence that is substantially identical over the full length of the amino acid sequence or fragment thereof. The amino acid sequence may be 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%,^ / o, 98%, 99%, or 100% identical over the full length of the amino acid sequence or a fragment thereof.

[0090] The vaccine can comprise one or more vectors that include a nucleic acid encoding a subunit of a self-assembling nanoparticle of the invention. The one or more vectors can be capable of expressing the encoded subunit polypeptides. The vector can have a nucleic acid sequence containing an origin of replication. The vector can be a plasmid, bacteriophage, bacterial artificial chromosome or yeast artificial chromosome. The vector can be either a selfreplicating extrachromosomal vector or a vector which integrates into a host genome.

[0091] The one or more vectors can be an expression construct, which is generally a plasmid that is used to introduce a specific gene into a target cell. Once the expression vector is inside the cell, the protein that is encoded by the gene is produced by the cellular-transcription and translation machinery ribosomal complexes. The plasmid is frequently engineered to contain regulatory sequences that act as enhancer and promoter regions and lead to efficient transcription of the gene carried on the expression vector. The vectors of the present invention express large amounts of stable messenger RNA, and therefore proteins.

[0092] The vectors may have expression signals such as a strong promoter, a strong termination codon, adjustment of the distance between the promoter and the cloned gene, and the insertion of a transcription termination sequence and a PTIS (portable translation initiation sequence).Expression Vectors

[0093] The vector can be a circular plasmid or a linear nucleic acid. The circular plasmid and linear nucleic acid are capable of directing expression of a particular nucleotide sequence in an appropriate subject cell. The vector can have a promoter operably linked to the antigenencoding nucleotide sequence, which may be operably linked to termination signals. The vector can also contain sequences required for proper translation of the nucleotide sequence. The vector comprising the nucleotide sequence of interest may be chimeric, meaning that at least one of its components is heterologous with respect to at least one of its other components. The expression of the nucleotide sequence in the expression cassette may be under the control of a constitutive promoter or of an inducible promoter, which initiates transcription only when the host cell isexposed to some particular external stimulus. In the case of a multicellular organism, the promoter can also be specific to a particular tissue or organ or stage of development.Circular and Linear Vectors

[0094] The vector may be a circular plasmid, which may transform a target cell by integration into the cellular genome or exist extrachromosomally (e.g., autonomous replicating plasmid with an origin of replication).

[0095] The vector can be pVAX, pcDNA3.0, or provax, or any other expression vector capable of expressing DNA encoding the antigen and enabling a cell to translate the sequence to an antigen that is recognized by the immune system.

[0096] Also provided herein is a linear nucleic acid vaccine, or linear expression cassette (“LEC”), that is capable of being efficiently delivered to a subject via electroporation and expressing one or more desired antigens. The LEC may be any linear DNA devoid of any phosphate backbone. The DNA may encode one or more antigens. The LEC may contain a promoter, an intron, a stop codon, and / or a polyadenylation signal. The expression of the antigen may be controlled by the promoter. The LEC may not contain any antibiotic resistance genes and / or a phosphate backbone. The LEC may not contain other nucleic acid sequences unrelated to the desired antigen gene expression.Promoter, Intron, Stop Codon, and Polyadenylation Signal

[0097] The vector may have a promoter. A promoter may be any promoter that is capable of driving gene expression and regulating expression of the isolated nucleic acid. Such a promoter is a cis-acting sequence element required for transcription via a DNA dependent RNA polymerase, which transcribes the antigen sequence described herein. Selection of the promoter used to direct expression of a heterologous nucleic acid depends on the particular application. The promoter may be positioned about the same distance from the transcription start in the vector as it is from the transcription start site in its natural setting. However, variation in this distance may be accommodated without loss of promoter function.

[0098] The promoter may be operably linked to the nucleic acid sequence encoding the antigen and signals required for efficient polyadenylation of the transcript, ribosome binding sites, and translation termination. The promoter may be a CMV promoter, SV40 early promoter,SV40 later promoter, metallothionein promoter, murine mammary tumor virus promoter, Rous sarcoma virus promoter, polyhedrin promoter, or another promoter shown effective for expression in eukaryotic cells.

[0099] The vector may include an enhancer and an intron with functional splice donor and acceptor sites. The vector may contain a transcription termination region downstream of the structural gene to provide for efficient termination. The termination region may be obtained from the same gene as the promoter sequence or may be obtained from different genes.Excipients and other Components of the Vaccine

[0100] The vaccine may further comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. The pharmaceutically acceptable excipient can be functional molecules such as vehicles, carriers, or diluents.

[0106] Also provided herein is a method of treating, protecting against, and / or preventing disease in a subject in need thereof by administering the vaccine to the subject. Administration of the vaccine to the subject can induce or elicit an immune response in the subject. The induced immune response can be used to treat, prevent, and / or protect against disease, for example, pathologies relating to HPV infection. In one embodiment, the pathology relating to HPV infection is cervical cancer or a carcinoma of the lung, tonsil, or larynx.

[0107] The induced immune response can include an induced humoral immune response and / or an induced cellular immune response. The humoral immune response can be induced by about 1.5-fold to about 16-fold, about 2-fold to about 12-fold, or about 3-fold to about 10-fold.

[0108] The vaccine dose can be between 1 pg to 10 mg active component / kg body weight / time, and can be 20 pg to 10 mg component / kg body weight / time. The vaccine can be administered every 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, or 31 days. The number of vaccine doses for effective treatment can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10.Administration

[0109] The vaccine can be formulated in accordance with standard techniques well known to those skilled in the pharmaceutical art. Such compositions can be administered in dosages and by techniques well known to those skilled in the medical arts taking into consideration such factors as the age, sex, weight, and condition of the particular subject, and the route of administration. The subject can be a mammal, such as a human, a horse, a cow, a pig, a sheep, a cat, a dog, a rat, or a mouse.

[0110] The vaccine can be administered prophylactically or therapeutically. In prophylactic administration, the vaccines can be administered in an amount sufficient to induce an immune response. In therapeutic applications, the vaccines are administered to a subject in need thereof in an amount sufficient to elicit a therapeutic effect. An amount adequate to accomplish this is defined as “therapeutically effective dose.” Amounts effective for this use will depend on, e.g., the particular composition of the vaccine regimen administered, the manner of administration, the stage and severity of the disease, the general state of health of the patient, and the judgment of the prescribing physician.

[0111] The vaccine can be administered by methods well known in the art as described in Donnelly et al. (Ann. Rev. Immunol. 15:617-648 (1997)); Feigner et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 5,580,859, issued Dec. 3, 1996); Feigner (U.S. Pat. No. 5,703,055, issued Dec. 30, 1997); and Carson et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 5,679,647, issued Oct. 21, 1997), the contents of all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. The DNA of the vaccine can be complexed to particles or beads that can be administered to an individual, for example, using a vaccine gun. One skilled in the art would know that the choice of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, including a physiologically acceptable compound, depends, for example, on the route of administration of the expression vector.

[0112] The vaccine can be delivered via a variety of routes. Typical delivery routes include parenteral administration, e.g., intradermal, intramuscular or subcutaneous delivery. Other routes include oral administration, intranasal, and intravaginal routes. For the DNA of the vaccine in particular, the vaccine can be delivered to the interstitial spaces of tissues of an individual (Feigner et al., U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,580,859 and 5,703,055, the contents of all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety). The vaccine can also be administered to muscle, or can be administered via intradermal or subcutaneous injections, or transdermally, such as by iontophoresis. Epidermal administration of the vaccine can also be employed. Epidermal administration can involve mechanically or chemically irritating the outermost layer of epidermis to stimulate an immune response to the irritant (Carson et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,679,647, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).

[0113] The vaccine can also be formulated for administration via the nasal passages. Formulations suitable for nasal administration, wherein the carrier is a solid, can include a coarse powder having a particle size, for example, in the range of about 10 to about 500 microns whichis administered in the manner in which snuff is taken, i.e., by rapid inhalation through the nasal passage from a container of the powder held close up to the nose. The formulation can be a nasal spray, nasal drops, or by aerosol administration by nebulizer. The formulation can include aqueous or oily solutions of the vaccine.

[0114] The vaccine can be a liquid preparation such as a suspension, syrup or elixir. The vaccine can also be a preparation for parenteral, subcutaneous, intradermal, intramuscular or intravenous administration (e.g., injectable administration), such as a sterile suspension or emulsion.

[0115] The vaccine can be incorporated into liposomes, microspheres or other polymer matrices (Feigner et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,703,055; Gregoriadis, Liposome Technology, Vols. Ito III (2nd ed. 1993), the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety). Liposomes can consist of phospholipids or other lipids, and can be nontoxic, physiologically acceptable and metabolizable carriers that are relatively simple to make and administer.Kit

[0118] The present invention has multiple aspects, illustrated by the following nonlimiting examples.Example 1 : Structural Engineering of Stabilized, Expanded Epitope Nanoparticle Vaccines for HPV

[0119] The data presented here demonstrate the development of DNA encoded nanoparticle vaccines for HPV with improved potency. Further, the data demonstrate the development of a generalizable pipeline to create stabilized, more full-length nanoparticle vaccines, including safer versions with oncogenic properties removed for the HPV16 E7 and E6 antigens. The use of Al structural prediction algorithms as well as computational tools increase the power and novelty of this design platform. Designs created using Al-driven techniques successfully form in vitro and retain their structure. In vivo immunogenicity experiments in both inbred and a more translationally relevant outbred mouse model showed that designed nanoparticles were immunogenic and capable of eliciting strong CD8+ T-cell responses. In particular, designed nanoparticles elicited a strongly biased CD8+ T-cell response over monomer. The combination immunization group of both E6 and E7 nanoparticles, the E6 / E7 nano cocktail, was able to induce the most positive responders in outbred mouse models and likewise would be predicted to elicit immunogenicity for several common HLA alleles.

[0120] One question this study brings up is the link between structure, expression, and immunogenicity. E7_FL_DpRb_nano had lower expression levels, in concordance with its partially unfolded structural prediction. In general, both E7 and E6 full-length nanoparticles and their derivatives generally had poorer expression in vitro than their corresponding truncated antigen counterparts. However, despite this poorer in vitro expression, in vivo E7_FL_DpRb_nano elicited the strongest response for E7, and E6_FL_Dp53_monomer elicited the strongest ELISpot response for E6 in BL6 mice. One possible explanation for these findings could be that an unfolded antigen is actually advantageous for more efficient MHC-I presentation. Proteins that don’t achieve native folds will be sent for degradation; these degraded proteins are a huge source of peptides that are eventually loaded onto MHC-I for T-cellsurveillance (Reits et al., 2000, Nature, 404, 774-8; Schubert et al., 2000, Nature, 404, 770-4). If, for example, the E6 monomer and E7_FL_DpRb_nano express poorly and are often misfolded, they may be frequently targeted for degradation and end up being presented on MHC- I more often. Indeed, there has been some suggestion that a different HPV antigen, El, which is unstructured, could make an attractive new vaccine target for this very reason (Boilesen et al., 2021, Vaccines (Basel), 9).

[0121] However, at odds with this idea is that E7_2Tr_nano and the E6 / E7 cocktail elicited stronger immunity than the E7 monomer, despite expressing far better in vitro and presumably having much higher stability. Further, in CD-I mice, the E6 / E7 cocktail composed of two truncated nanoparticles, E7_2Tr_nano and E6_Tr_Sol_Dp53_nano, outperformed monomer and full-length nanoparticles for both E7 and E6. This brings up an interesting role that dendritic cells may play in eliciting CTL immunity in DNA-delivery platforms. Antigens that have been properly assembled and secreted, such as the presumably well-structured nanoparticles truncated nanoparticles, can be taken up by antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells for cross-presentation on MHC-I (Kutzler and Weiner, 2008, Nat Rev Genet, 9, 776-88; Gary and Weiner, 2020, Curr Opin Immunol, 65, 21-27; Pandya et al., 2023, Med Oncol, 40, 200). Therefore, the overall ability to prime immunogenicity may be driven by a balance of both degraded antigens and well-folded secreted antigens. Finding a good balance, if one exists, may inform future vaccine design.

[0122] One critical consideration for full-length nanoparticle vaccine design is also a balance of the actual ability to prime immunity balanced with the theoretical ability to have more epitopes recognized by a global suite of HLA molecules. While full-length nanoparticles contain more theoretical epitopes, as was observed in the more translationally relevant CD-I mouse model, they were inferior at eliciting immunity in comparison to their truncated, stabilized counterparts. Thus, vaccine decisions need to balance these possibilities or weigh allele frequencies in target populations. In cases where there are known human CTL epitopes, these could also be appended via flexible linkers to the stabilized truncated domain, possibly allowing a balance between good immunogenicity and higher theoretical coverage.

[0123] Because this platform is adaptable, an ideal vaccine may also cover targets beyond simply E7 and E6. A study investigating T-cell responses in 66 cervical cancer patients found that over half of them had El-specific T-cells (Ma et al., 2018, Infect Agent Cancer, 13,35). Another study demonstrated that some patients with higher E2-directed T-cell responses had less cervical dysplasia and responses were correlated with disease regression (Dillon et al., 2007, J Gen Virol, 88, 803-813). The implication of other HPV proteins E4 and E5 is less clear in cervical cancer, but in patients with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, T-cell responses were detected against E4 and E5, in addition to E1-E2 and E6-E7 (Bhatt et al., 2020, J Exp Med, 217). Though E6 and E7 have remained the most thoroughly investigated antigens, there is potential for the creation of additional nanoparticle vaccines with these other specificities to augment potency, using the design platform presented here.

[0124] The use of this platform is generally tailorable for desired antigens and desired specificities. All told, these findings offer both a guideline for general vaccine development and point to a strong starting ground for improvement on existing HPV vaccine efforts. The computationally driven E6 and E7 nanoparticle designs are safe and immunogenic and are easily translatable. The pathway presented here serves as a model for the design efforts on the path to a globally effective therapeutic HPV vaccine.The Materials and Methods are now describedSequences

[0125] All starting sequences used for both E6 and E7 were from the HPV16 subtype. The full-length WT sequence for E7 was obtained from UniProt (Accession number: P03129). Any AprB constructs contained mutations and deletions in regions that bind pRb as previously described (Yan et al., 2009, Vaccine, 27, 431-40).

[0126] The full-length WT sequence for E6 was obtained from UniProt (Accession number: P03126). Any constructs designated with ‘Sol’ were based on PDB:6SJA and contained mutations that interrupt the E6 homodimerization domain (F47R) and prevent disulfide-mediated aggregation (4C / 4S) as previously described (Nomine et al., 2006, Mol Cell, 21, 665-78; Zanier et al., 2012, Structure, 20, 604-17). Any Ap53 constructs contained mutations and deletions in regions that bind p53 as previously described (Yan et al., 2009, Vaccine, 27, 431-40).Structural Prediction

[0127] Full-length antigen structures were predicted using either Alphafold only (E6) or Alphafold and RoseTTAFold (E7). In all cases, five structures were predicted per input sequence. Alphafold structures were predicted using non-templated ColabFold, an online accessible version of AlphaFold2 (Mirdita et al., 2022, Nat Methods, 19, 679-682; Jumper et al., 2021, Nature, 596, 583-589). A local installation of RoseTTAFold (Baek et al., 2021, Science, 373, 871-876) was downloaded from (github.com / RosettaCommons / RoseTTAFold) and also used to run predictions. All structures were loaded into Pymol 2.0 for visualization. The topranked structure, or in some cases structures with unique folds, was then used for further domain engineering. Per-residue pLDDT scores (AlphaFold) or RMS-error scores (RoseTTAFold) were also extracted from models of interest. A crystal structure of E6_FL_Sol with only an additional N-terminal glycine was available (PDB:6SJA) and so no structural prediction was needed for domains based off this full-length sequence, unless they contained the additional Dp53 mutations.Domain Minimization

[0128] Determination of purported foldable domains was determined through a variety of methods. This included the use of pLDDT / RMS-error. For example, pLDDT scores generally predict stable domains and regions of disorder quite well (Necci et al., 2021, Nat Methods, 18, 472-481; Piovesan et al., 2022, Protein Sci, 31, e4466; Tunyasuvunakool et al., 2021, Nature, 596, 590-596), thus pLDDT scores can be used to determine regions of disorder. These per residue scores were used to down-select to structured regions of interest, which was then accompanied by visual inspection in Pymol of the new domains. Some partial structures of E7 for a different subtype (HPV45) were available in the PDB (2F8B, 2EWL) and were aligned to the AlphaFol d2 and RosettaFold2 predictions to refine domain minimization. Once sequences of minimized domains were selected, the structures were re-predicted using Alphafold2 to ensure that the truncations were predicted to maintain the desired geometries.After initial rounds of characterization of minimized designs, the most successful E6 minimizations were engineered to incorporate the Ap53 mutations and E7 minimizations were engineered to incorporate the ApRb mutations.Disulfide Engineering

[0129] For additional stability, the engineering of disulfide bonds to stabilize local protein folds was considered. Using an MSL library (Kulp et al., 2012, J Comput Chem, 33, 1645-61) a disulfide scanning tool called FindDisulfides was created. It takes an input PDB file of the protein to be designed, then scans for candidate pairs of residues to create a disulfide bridge. The backbone geometries of each pair of residues are compared against the PDB to determine how many other structures in the PDB contain disulfide pairs with similar geometries. New disulfide bridges under consideration were then filtered so that mutated residues had to be >20 residues apart and have >500 matching PDB geometries. The disulfides that met these criteria were used to model disulfides in the input starting structure. Purported disulfide bridges were manually inspected in PyMOL and combinations of disulfides were determined from there (1-2 disulfide pairs per structure). If the structure contained more than one pair of disulfides, efforts were made to have them located on distal sides in order to avoid the mispairing of cysteines.Nanoparticle Design

[0130] Any construct with the designation ‘nano’ was scaffolded onto a stabilized, engineered lumazine synthase scaffold (previously described as DLnano_LS_GT8) (Xu et al., 2020, Cancer Immunol Res, 8, 1354-1364). All constructs were cloned into the pVax vector and contained the IgE leader sequence. Constructs were codon optimized for homo sapiens and / or mus musculus,' all E6 and E7 nanoparticle constructs and their derivatives were codon optimized identically to the monomer.Nanoparticle Production and Characterization

[0131] Each nanoparticle was transfected into ExpiF293 cells following the manufacturer’s guidelines ((ExpiFectamine™ 293 Transfection Kit(Gibco)) with a transfection size of lOOmL. Supernatants were harvested 7 days post-transfection and purified using an inhouse column packed with Galnthus Nivalis Lectin Beads (Vector Lab) on an AKTA Pure system. Following lectin purification, fractions were pooled, concentrated, and dialyzed into IX PBS. Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) was then run using a Superose 6 10 / 300 GL Increase column (Cytiva), again using an AKTA Pure system. In some cases, two rounds of size exclusion chromatography were run. The relevant fractions were then pooled and concentrated.Concentrations of the nanoparticles were then determined using a NanoDrop™ One spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific) to calculate the final transfection yields of the purified nanoparticles.ELISAs

[0132] All ELISAs were performed using polystyrene high binding, 96-well Flat-Bottom, Half-Area Microplates (Corning). Plates were coated at 15pg / mL with the relevant E6 or E7 nanoparticle overnight at 4°C, washed with IX PBS / 0.05% Tween-20, then blocked for Ihr at RT with 5% milk / lX PBS / 0.01% Tween-20. Following the wash, dilutions of the relevant antibody were performed. For E6 ELISAs, anti-E6 monoclonal antibody (MAB874, Millipore Sigma) was prepared in duplicate (either 50pg / mL or 70pg / mL starting concentration, 3X dilution series). For E7 ELISAs, anti-E7 polyclonal antibody (PA5-117383, Fisher Scientific) was prepared in duplicate (70pg / mL starting concentration, 3X dilution series). Plates were then incubated for 1 hour at RT, washed, then detected for 45min at RT with 1 : 10,000 of the relevant secondary antibody. For E6 ELISAs, anti-mouse H+L-HRP (Bethyl, A90-116P) was used and for E7 ELISAs, anti-rabbit H+L-HRP was used (Bethyl, A120-201P). Following the wash, plates were incubated with 1-StepTM Ultra TMB-ELISA Substrate Solution (Thermo Scientific) for 1 min before being quenched with 1 M H2SO4. The absorbance of plates was then read at 450nm and 570nm using a Biotek Synergy 2 plate reader. Absorbance was 450nm-570nm normalized and the background of blank wells was subtracted. All data was exported to Microsoft Excel and analyzed in GraphPad Prism 10.Negative Stain Electron Microscopy

[0133] Purified nanoparticles in PBS (3uL) at 0.03-0.05 mg / mL were adsorbed onto glow discharged carbon-coated Cu400 EM grids. Grids were rinsed several times with TBS. The grids were then stained with 3 pL of 2% uranyl formate, blotted, and stained again with 3 pL of the stain for 90 seconds followed by a final blot. A FEI Tecnai T12 microscope equipped with Oneview Gatan camera at 52000x magnification was used for data collection. Data is at a 2.356 A / pixel ratio.Immunizations

[0134] Six to eight week old female C57BL / 6J (The Jackson Laboratory) or CD-I IGS mice were obtained. To obtain cellular responses, mice were immunized with lOpg of the relevant E6 or E7 DNA vaccine, or 20 pg total in the case of combination groups, in their tibialus anterior muscle. To promote plasmid uptake use of a CELLECTRA EP (Inovio Pharmaceuticals) delivery device was employed. Two sets of 0.2 A pulses with a 3-second interval were delivered; each pulse consisted of 52 ms pulses with 198 ms delay. Mice received an identical vaccination two weeks post-initial immunization. At week 3, terminal bleeds were collected and mice were euthanized under CO2. Spleens were collected into RPMI media supplemented with 10% HI FBS and 1% P / S, then processed using a Seward Stomacher 80 (Seward) followed by filtration through 40 pm cell strainers. Red blood cells were lysed using ACK lysis buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific).ELISpot

[0135] Cellular responses were quantified using ELISpot assays. Briefly, 200,000 splenocytes were plated onto mouse IFNy ELI-SpotPLUS plates (MabTech) and stimulated with 5 pg / mL peptides. Overlapping peptide pools were constructed so that the length of E6 or E7 was spanned by overlapping peptides (15AA long, 8AA overlaps). This method of epitope determination has been previously described (Fiore-Gartland et al., 2016, PLoS One, 11, e0147812). Peptides spanning E6 were pooled into 10 different pools, while those spanning E7 were pooled into 8 different pools. Splenocytes from the relevant mice were incubated with each of the relevant peptide pools for 20 hours at 37°C, then developed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Concanavalin A or R10 were used as positive or negative controls, respectively. Spots were quantified using MabTech IRIS Fluorospot / ELIspot reader, normalized to an unstimulated control (R10).For additional normalization in CD-I mice, ‘responders’ were defined from ELISpot data. The average of positive spots was determined for naive mice, and this value was subtracted from all ELISpot data. If a mouse still had >300 positive spots post-normalization, it was counted as a positive responder to that pool. Some mice had such high responses the plate reader could not quantify the spots. While these mice were excluded in Figure 12 because no numeric value can be assigned as ‘above the limit of detection for responses’, they were included in the responders analysis as a positive responder.Intracellular Staining and Flow Cytometry

[0136] Splenocytes (IM cells / well) were isolated as described in the Immunizations section, then stimulated with peptide pools for full-length E6 or E7 in the presence of protein transport inhibitor for 5 hours at 37°C. Cells were then stained with anti-mouse CD3-PE-Cy5, CD4-BV510, CD8-APC-Cy7, IFNy-APC, IL-2-PE-Cy7 and TNFa-BV605. All antibodies were purchased from Biolegend. To assess cellular viability, cells were also stained with Live / Dead violet (Invitrogen). Samples were then run on an 18-color LSRII flow cytometer (BD Biosciences), gated relative to naive mice, and analyzed by FlowJo software.HLA Allele Binding Specificities and Frequencies

[0137] Peptides predicted to bind human HLA alleles were determined using NetMHCpan (Reynisson et al., 2020, Nucleic Acids Res, 48, W449-W454). Due to the extreme diversity of the human HLA repertoire, predictions were generated using the ‘HLA supertype representative’ set of loci, which are HLA proteins clustered according to similar binding specificities (Lund et al., 2004, Immunogenetics, 55, 797-810; Nielsen et al., 2007, PLoS One, 2, e796; Sette and Sidney, 1999, Immunogenetics, 50, 201-12). These consist of HLA-A*02:01, HLA-A*01:01, HLA-A*03:01, HLA-A*24:02, HLA-A*26:01, HLA-B*07:02, HLA-B*08:01, HLA-B*27:05, HLA-B*39:01, HLA-B*40:01, HLA-B*58:01, and HLA-B*15:01. Binding peptides (9-mers) were determined from E7_FL_ DpRb or E6_FL_Dp53 sequences for E7 and E6, respectively. The threshold for strong binders was specified as 0.5% rank.

[0138] Population frequencies of the HLA supertype alleles were determined using the HLA allele report from the Allele Frequency Net Database (Gonzalez-Galarza et al., 2020, Nucleic Acids Res, 48, D783-D788). Percentages were determined as 100*allele count / number of people typed for a given allele and is based on their gold datasets.The Experimental Results are now DescribedStabilized Nanoparticle Design Pipeline

[0139] To create next generation vaccines that are not limited by MHC restriction, it is imperative to design antigens that display maximal epitopes. An ideal vaccine candidate wouldscaffold these more full-length antigens on a DNA-launched, 60-mer nanoparticle scaffold, as this has been shown to drive superior immune responses (Tursi et al., 2023, Front Immunol, 14, 1072810; Xu et al., 2020, Cancer Immunol Res, 8, 1354-1364; Xu et al., 2020, Adv Sci (Weinh), 7, 1902802). With this in mind, it was sought to develop a cancer antigen design pipeline, utilizing the power of new Al tools (Figure 1A). The developed workflow consists of 5 steps: determination of gene sequence, structural prediction, design of a ‘foldable’ domain, additional design stabilization, and formulation as a nanoparticle.

[0140] Once the gene sequence for the desired antigen is determined, a predicted structure for the full length antigen is generated through prediction tools such as RoseTTafold2, AlphaFold2 or the newer AlphaFold3 (Baek et al., 2021, Science, 373, 871-876; Jumper et al., 2021, Nature, 596, 583-589; Abramson et al., 2024, Nature, 630, 493-500). In some cases, the full-length structure may not have well-folded domains which could interfere with display. Confidence metrics from structural prediction algorithms, such as Alphafold’s pLDDT score have been shown to correlate with well-folded regions (Piovesan et al., 2022, Protein Sci, 31, e4466; Tunyasuvunakool et al., 2021, Nature, 596, 590-596). Loading the predicted structures into structure visualization tools like Pymol, coupled with confidence metric scores, allows for the selection of residues in a truncated, purported ‘foldable’ domain in the event that the full- length antigen cannot be displayed. Additional stabilization can be engineered into these constructs as desired. One way to do so is through the use of disulfide engineering to mutate pairs of residues to cysteines to create a covalent disulfide bridge and stabilize local folds. ProteinMPNN (Dauparas et al., 2022, Science, 378, 49-56) could also be used at this stage to change residues with the hope of achieving display, though there is the tradeoff that less nativelike sequences will be inferior at achieving robust anti-cancer T-cell responses. Finally, candidate designs are scaffolded onto a stabilized, lumazine-synthase domain that creates selfassembling 60-mer nanoparticles in vivo, as previously described (Xu et al., 2020, Cancer Immunol Res, 8, 1354-1364). For simplicity, this will be referred to as ‘nano’ throughout.

[0141] Though these steps can be applied to any desired cancer antigen, HPV16 E7 was used as a model antigen for a proof-of-concept study, as it is a well-described, important target for HPV vaccine efforts (Pal and Kundu, 2019, Front Microbiol, 10, 3116). Example outputs from structural prediction algorithms and examples of per residue confidence metrics are shown for full-length E7 (E7_FL) (Figure IB, 1C, Figure 2A-D). Comparison of the structure with per-residue pLDDT scores showed high confidence for the C-terminal domain folds, which was used as the basis for creating a truncated, foldable domain. A cutoff of pLDDT > 80 was used as this falls into the confident-very confident prediction score range to down-select residues (Guo et al., 2022, Scientific Reports, 12; Jumper et al., 2021, Nature, 596, 583-589). Though residues 43-46 have pLDDT scores lower than this cutoff, they were preserved in the truncated structure to create a more native-like linker when scaffolded onto the nanoparticle core. The resultant structure that forms the basis of the E7, truncated foldable domain (E7_Tr) is shown in Figure ID. An NMR partial structure of E7 for a different strain (HPV45) showed E7 in a dimeric form (PDB: 2F8B). Single subunits of the resolved dimer have a highly similar structure to the designed E7_Tr (Figure 2E). It was reasoned that E7_Tr was likely to be stable as a dimer but with the potential to be more immunogenic, so a dimeric version (E7_2Tr) was formulated with a flexible GS linker between individual subunits (Figure IE). In order to further stabilize the dimeric form, a disulfide scanner was used to select pairs of residues amenable to mutation to cysteine in order to staple the dimeric interface together (Figure IF). This method was also used to create pairs of disulfides that might stabilize local folds in the full-length structure (E7 FL) to promote expression on a nanoparticle, as well as to E7_Tr in the event domain minimization was not sufficient to achieve display. Three disulfide modified full-length versions (E7_FL_Dsl, E7_FL_Ds2, E7_FL_Ds3), and one each for the truncated and truncated dimer versions (E7_Tr_Dsl, E7_2Tr_Dsl) were generated. Sequences for designs can be found in Figure 3. All E7 designs were then formulated onto the self-assembling 60-mer scaffold to create nanoparticles.In vitro characterization of E7 nanoparticle designs

[0142] The success of E7 nanoparticle designs was first assessed in vitro. All nanoparticle designs were easily able to form in vitro in contrast to E7_monomer (Ogg yield), showcasing the power of the nanoparticle platform to aid in design expression and stabilization (Figure 4A). The full length nanoparticle designs had the lowest average purified yields, ranging from 311.5-490.1 pg from a lOOmL transfection. This was expected as all E7 FL nanos contained a large unstructured portion according to the structural prediction algorithms, which would likely reduce their ability to stably form. In this case, introduction of disulfide bonds through E7_FL_Dsl, Ds2 or Ds3 nanos did not have a large effect on the yield. In contrast,designs based on E7_Tr or E7_2Tr both had higher average yields than designs based on E7_FL, and disulfides further increased the yield, showcasing the importance of introducing structure- guided truncations. The average yield of E7 Tr nano was 1012.3pg and 1128.3pg for E7_Tr_Dsl_nano; E7_2Tr_nano had an average yield of 586.5pg and E7_2Tr_Dsl_nano had an average yield of 862pg.

[0143] To assess structural integrity of the E7 antigens displayed on nanoparticles, an ELISA was performed to assess binding to a polyclonal anti-E7 antibody. Most designs bound well, showing proper antigen formation (Figure 4B). Though both E7_Tr_Dsl_nano and E7_2Tr_Dsl_nano formed well in vitro, they maintained only partial binding suggesting that some of the disulfides introduced might cause partial antigen misfolding.

[0144] In vitro yield as well as antigen structural integrity were weighed to decide which nanoparticles to use in a first-pass immunogenicity experiment. First, one nanoparticle from each base construct category was chosen; SEC traces confirmed their formation as nanoparticles and models of each 60-mer are shown in the insets (Figure 4C-E). E7_FL_Dsl_nano was chosen in the full-length category as it had similar yields to E7_FL_nano but slightly better ELISA binding. E7_Tr_nano and E7_2Tr_nano were both selected over their disulfide-modified counterparts due to the better structural integrity of these antigens. Ultimately E7_2Tr_nano was chosen over E7_Tr_nano as they both contain the same truncated domains but E7_2Tr_nano has twice as many of these domains, meaning that it might generate an even more potent immune response.

[0145] To assess whether E7_FL_Dsl_nano and E7_2Tr_nano could elicit immunity, mice were immunized and both nanoparticle groups mounted a significant T-cell response as determined by ELISpot (Figure 5A-B).Formulation of safer E7 nanoparticles

[0146] Encouraged by this immunogenicity experiment, it was decided to iterate on the initial designs to create safer nanoparticles. E7 has oncogenic properties, conferred by its ability to bind pRb and initiate pro-tumorigenic downstream effects (Pal and Kundu, 2019, Front Microbiol, 10, 3116). A safer vaccine candidate would be pRb binding null (and indeed, this mirrors the sequence found in the VGX-3100 clinical trial) (Yan et al., 2009, Vaccine, 27, 431- 40). The location of the truncation found in E7_2Tr_nano is such that this design naturally lackspRb binding, and so no changes had to be made for this design. However, pRb binding knockout mutations (hereafter DpRb) were introduced into E7_FL_nano over E7_FL_Dsl to maximize native-like epitopes. This became E7 FL DpRb nano (Figure 3).

[0147] Alphafold2 predictions showed no major changes to structure introduced by the ApRb mutations confirming this was a viable new design (Figure 6A). In vitro formation of the design as well as the assembly of E7_FL_DpRb_nano into a 60-mer was confirmed via size exclusion chromatography (Figure 4F, Figure 6B). A model of the resultant nanoparticle is shown in the inset. The structural integrity of E7 FL DpRb nano was also assessed by ELISA binding to the polyclonal anti-E7 antibody; antigen integrity was preserved (Figure 4G). This provided two final E7 nanoparticle candidates of interest for more extensive in vivo immunogenicity experiments: E7_FL_DpRb_nano and E7_2Tr_nano; both of which lack binding to pRb for safety considerations. Their formation as nanoparticles was further confirmed by negative stain electron microscopy (nsEM) (Figure 7A-B).In vitro characterization of E6 nanoparticle designs

[0148] Both E6 and E7 have been the targets of many vaccination efforts since they both are oncogenic and are constitutively expressed (Pal and Kundu, 2019, Front Microbiol, 10, 3116; Trimble et al., 2015, Lancet, 386, 2078-2088; Choi et al., 2020, Clin Cancer Res, 26, 1616-1623; Yang et al., 2016, Expert Rev Vaccines, 15, 989-1007). Furthermore, there have been suggestions that immune responses synergize to create a more potent response when both E6 and E7 antigens are present (Yan et al., 2009, Vaccine, 27, 431-40).

[0149] As the nanoparticle pipeline is generalizable, E6-targeting nanoparticles were also engineered. In the case of HPV16 E6, a resolved crystal structure (PDB: 6SJA) is available, though it contains mutations relative to WT that enhance solubility and reduce aggregation (hereafter referred to as ‘Sol’ mutations). Structural prediction algorithms were used to confirm that the WT sequence of full-length HPV16 E6 (E6 FL) was predicted to fold in a similar manner to the crystal structure (Figure 8A); they are essentially identical and fold into an N- terminal and C-terminal domain separated by an alpha helix.

[0150] Ordinarily, the next step in the nanoparticle design pipeline would be to select a truncated domain solely composed of regions predicted to be well folded. However, E6 has very high per residue pLDDT scores across the full protein (Figure 8B), reflecting its well-foldednature. A truncated domain was generated based on residues 7-87 in the event that the entire full- length protein was too large to display properly as a nanoparticle. This design became E6_Tr. It was reasoned that the Sol mutations might be necessary for stability and formation as they were integral to crystal structure resolution, so versions of E6 FL and E6_Tr with Sol muts (E6 FL S0I and E6_Tr_Sol) were engineered. Both full-length and truncated E6 designs with additional disulfides engineered in were also created, resulting in 3 disulfide engineered full- length variants (E6_FL_Dsl, E6_FL_Ds2, E6_FL_Sol_Dsl) and 2 disulfide engineered truncated variants (E6_Tr_Dsl, E6_Tr_Ds2). Sequences for all designs can be found in Figure 9. Finally, all designs were formulated onto the self-assembling 60-mer scaffold to create nanoparticles.

[0151] This suite of designs was assessed for in vitro expression. All formed well in vitro in contrast to E6_monomer (Opg yield), once again demonstrating the power of the nanoparticle platform to aid in design expression and stabilization (Figure 10A). Interestingly, the Sol muts and disulfide modifications made little difference in overall yield; yield instead changed according to full-length constructs (lower yield) or truncated constructs (higher yield). Designs based on the full-length E6 sequence had average purified yields of 443.2-805.5 pg while designs based on the truncated domain had average purified yields of 1429.6pg-2656.6pg. ELISA binding to an HPV16 anti-E6 antibody was used as a proxy to assess the structural integrity of each nanoparticle antigen (Figure 10B). In this case, Sol mutations were key to maintaining structural integrity. Only E6_FL_Sol_nano and E6_Tr_Sol_nano displayed meaningful binding to the anti-E6 antibody. SEC traces of these two constructs further demonstrate their formation as nanoparticles and models of each 60-mer are shown in the insets (Figure 10C-D).

[0152] To assess whether E6_FL_Sol_nano and E6_Tr_Sol_nano were not just structurally intact, but also capable of mounting an immune response, mice were immunized and responses were assessed. Good immune responses were generated by both nanoparticles, with higher responses in mice immunized with E6_Tr_Sol_nano (Figure 5A, 4C).Formulation of safer E6 nanoparticles

[0153] Akin to E7, the oncogenic properties of E6 are driven by its ability to bind another protein, in this case, tumor suppressor p53. In order to create safer versions of E6, leadnanoparticles were formulated without safety risks but by introducing mutations and deletions in the p53 binding region. This also corresponds with mutations to E6 found in clinical trials (Yan et al., 2009, Vaccine, 27, 431-40). The set of changes to knock out p53 binding will be referred to as Dp53. Two new nanoparticles were engineered without oncogenic properties, E6_FL_Sol_Dp53_nano and E6_Tr_Sol_Dp53_nano (Figure 9). Alphafold2 models of the new designs showed that designs incorporating Dp53 mutations are predicted to maintain similar folds to the crystal structure (Figure 6C-D).

[0154] In vitro formation of the designs as well as the proper assembly of both nanoparticles were confirmed (Figure 10E-F, Figure 6E). Models of the new nanoparticles demonstrate similarities between E6_FL_Sol_nano and E6_FL_Sol_Dp53_nano, as well as between E6_Tr_Sol_nano and E6_Tr_Sol_Dp53_nano, as predicted. Finally, the structural integrity of E6_FL_Sol_Dp53 and E6_Tr_Sol_Dp53_nano was assessed by ELISA binding to an anti-E6 monoclonal antibody. Binding was preserved with identical binding patterns to the E6 designs with intact p53 binding; the truncated antigen displayed superior binding to the full length(Figure 10G). These results provided E6_FL_Sol_Dp53_nano and E6_Tr_Sol_Dp53_nano as designs to move forward for more extensive in vivo immunogenicity experiments, and their formation as nanoparticles was further confirmed by nsEM (Figure 7C-D).T-cell responses to designed E7 nanoparticles

[0155] Mice were immunized with lOpg of DNA in a prime / boost immunization scheme (Figure 11 A). Spleens were harvested one week post boost and used to determine the immunogenicity of the DNA-launched nanoparticle designs via interferon-y ELISpot and intracellular cytokine staining by flow cytometry. E7_FL_DpRb_nano and E7_2Tr_nano were compared to a monomeric construct, E7_FL_DpRb_monomer, in order to ascertain if nanoparticle responses were superior to monomer. Further, because of the suggestion that E6 and E7 responses can synergize, a group consisting of E6_Tr_Sol_Dp53_nano and E7_2Tr_nano was also assessed (hereafter ‘E6 / E7 nano cocktail’).

[0156] Immunogenicity was first analyzed for inbred C57 / BL6 mice (Figure 1 IB). All monomeric and nanoparticle groups displayed E7-specific T-cell responses. As expected, all nanoparticle groups were also able to elicit stronger E7-directed immunogenicity than the monomer. The monomer had an average of 6,666 spots for the highest-responding E7 peptidepool 2, compared to average spots of 9,752, 10,030, or 12,957 for E7_2Tr_nano, E6 / E7 nano cocktail, and E7_FL_DpRb_nano respectively. Across all groups, the strongest responses were directed at pools 2, 7 and 8, reflecting the genetically identical nature of inbred mice. These pools contain the known MHC Db-restricted immunodominant peptide, RAHYNIVTF (SEQ ID NO:95), for BL6 mice (Feltkamp et al., 1993, Eur J Immunol, 23, 2242-9). Interestingly, though E7_FL_DpRb_nano had the lowest in vitro expression, the highest magnitude of E7-directed immunogenicity was observed. It may be that the partially unfolded nature of the full-length protein is in fact advantageous in the case of intracellular processing onto MHCI though this may depend on the exact mechanisms contributing to DNA-primed cellular immunity.

[0157] Importantly, experiments were designed to assess immunogenicity in a genetically heterogeneous population as this would be more reflective of the variable nature of responses in a human population. Outbred CD-I mice were immunized according to the same immunization scheme (Figure 11 A). As expected, responses in outbred mice are much more variable since each mouse has different MHC alleles to bind different epitopes to prime immunity (Figure 12A). In order to better compare overall responses and determine if the designed nanoparticles were eliciting responses to multiple different E7 epitopes, each CD1 mouse was characterized as a responder or non-responder on a per-pool basis. Responders were normalized to naive background and were required to have >300 spots after normalization to be considered a positive response. Both the monomer and nanoparticle groups were able to achieve responses to a variety of epitopes, as shown by the diversity of pools with positive responders (Figure 11C). The group that elicited the highest number of responders on a per-pool basis was determined (Figure 1 ID); each pool is colored according to the group with the most responders. The E6 / E7 nano cocktail group had the highest responders in pools 1,2, and 6 and was tied for pool 8. This group was able to achieve the highest number of responders across diverse pools, suggesting synergy of immune responses in the cocktail group. The E7_2Tr_nano group was a close second with the highest responses in pools 3 and 7 and tied for pools 5 and 8. Together, these demonstrate the ability of the designed stabilized nanoparticles to elicit immune responses in a genetically diverse background.

[0158] To more directly assess whether the nanoparticle groups were priming a CTL response, the degree of IFNy+ or TNFa+ CD8+ T-cell responses (Figure 1 IE) was determined. In inbred BL6 mice, a strong CD8+ T-cell response was observed, especially in theE7_FL_DpRb_nano group where an average of 5.16% of the CD8+ cells were IFNy+ or TNFa+. This corresponds with the ELISpot response data. This strong response was significantly higher than the monomer group, and not statistically different than either E7 2Tr nano or the E6 / E7 nano cocktail groups, showcasing the CTL priming abilities of the designed nanoparticles. In outbred CD-I mice, the E6 / E7 nano cocktail has the highest levels of CD8+ cells (Figure 1 IF) with an average of 1.93% IFNy+ or TNFa+ CD8+ T-cells, reflecting the high responder numbers observed in the ELISpot data.

[0159] Experiments were designed to determine to what degree the observed nanoparticles bias a CTL over T-cell help response, i.e. to what degree responses were CD8+ biased over CD4+ biased. Strongly enhanced CD8+:CD4+ responses were observed in both inbred and outbred mice for the nanoparticle groups (Figure 12C) and enhanced abilities to prime CD8+ cells over monomer (Figure 11G). Average CD8+ bias ranges from 1.8-3.3X over monomer for inbred mice, and 2.3-3.4X over monomer in outbred mice. These showcase the strong CTL priming ability of the designed E7 nanoparticle constructs, key to potent vaccine responses.T-cell responses to designed E6 nanoparticles

[0160] Next, the immunogenicity of the designed E6 nanoparticles was determined as compared to monomer following the immunization scheme in Figure 11 A. Groups assessed were E6_FL_Sol_Ap53_nano, E6_Tr_Sol_Ap53_nano and the E6 / E7 cocktail group to determine if there would be E6-directed synergy. These were compared to E6_FL_Ap53_monomer. Unexpectedly, E6_FL_Dp53 monomer had the highest responses in inbred mice via ELISpot, though all nanoparticle groups also were able to elicit E6-directed responses (Figure 13A). The monomer does not contain Sol mutations which perhaps contributes to the differences observed. Overall, the strongest responses across all groups are to pool 2 and pool 9 in the genetically identical BL6 mice background. These pools overlap with the MHC Db-restricted E6 peptide YRDGNPYAV (SEQ ID NO: 105) (Feltkamp et al., 1993, Eur J Immunol, 23, 2242-9).

[0161] To better compare the ability of the nanoparticles to elicit diverse immune responses, the E6 groups were also assessed in an outbred CD-I mouse mode. Responses were observed to a much greater variety of pools in the outbred mice for both the monomer and nanoparticle groups (Figure 12B). For more effective comparisons, the number of positiveresponders in each group was characterized against each E6 pool; this demonstrates the diversity of responses (Figure 13B).

[0162] Akin to E7, the E6 group that elicited the highest number of responders on a perpool basis was determined (Figure 13C). The combination E6 / E7 nano cocktail group clearly elicits the highest number of responders across pools, with the most responders in pools 1, 4-7, 9 and a tie for pool 2. This suggests that the presence of E7-directed nanoparticles in the cocktail may help cross-prime a stronger E6-directed responses as well.

[0163] Though the strongest ELISpot responses for inbred BL6 mice were detected in the monomer group, it is interesting that the monomer does not have the highest average IFNy+ or TNFa+. CD8+ cells for BL6 mice (Figure 13D). In fact, though the cocktail group had the weakest ELISpot responses this group has the highest lFNy+ or TNFa+ CD8+ responses for BL6 mice. For outbred CD1 mice, the cocktail group similarly had the highest IFNY+ or TNFa+ CD8+ responses (Figure 13E); in this case the trend matches with the highest number of responders detected for the cocktail group. One possible reason for this phenomenon could be that the monomer elicits a more CD4+ biased response. The monomer has the lowest CD8+:CD4+ T-cell ratio for both BL6 and CD1 mice out of all groups (Figure 12D) suggesting poor elicitation of CTLs; strong ELISpot responses may be due solely to T-cell help CD4+ responses.

[0164] All of the nanoparticle groups elicit stronger CD8+ biased responses than the monomer, ranging from 1.6-2.2X or 1.5-2. IX more CD8+ bias than monomer for BL6 and CD1 mice respectively (Figure 13F). All told, potent CTL-like responses were seen across all designed nanoparticle groups, and in a genetically diverse model more reflective of population MHC diversity, the highest degree of responses was observe in the E6 / E7 cocktail group.Expanded epitope targeting of nanoparticle vaccines

[0165] It was desired to determine how the designed nanoparticles might translate to a human system, as the ultimate goal is making a translationally useful vaccine. It was demonstrated that the nanoparticles can target expanded epitopes in a mouse system, but mouse and human MHC alleles present peptides differently. To determine how the designed nanoparticles might function, NetMHCPan(Nielsen et al., 2007) was used to predict what E6 and E7 peptides would bind different HLA alleles in humans (Figure 15A, Figure 14). RepresentativeHLA supertype alleles were used to determine how some of the more common HLA alleles would bind peptides and compared these predicted epitopes against the sequences of the designed nanoparticles. Because a vaccine targeted not just for the United States, but for a global population was desired, the frequency at which a given allele is present in the worldwide population was also graphed.

[0166] For E7, both E7_FL_ApRb_nano and E7_2Tr_nano cover more alleles and a greater portion of the global population than a peptide only approach. For E6, E6_FL_Sol_Ap53_nano and E6_Tr_Sol_Ap53_nano also cover more human alleles and a greater portion of the global population than a peptide only approach. In addition, the E6 / E7 cocktail can elicit immunity in a greater number of alleles than either E7_2Tr_nano or E6_Tr_Sol_Ap53_nano alone. While both full length nanoparticles (E7_FL_ApRb_nano and E6_FL_Sol_Ap53_nano) have the largest theoretical population coverage, it is important to note that maximum theoretical coverage can only be achieved if the vaccine is in fact immunogenic. In the in vivo immunogenicity experiments, in the CD-I mouse model with more similarities to human population diversity, both full length constructs did not perform as strongly as the nanoparticle cocktail and would therefore be unlikely to elicit maximum epitope coverage. Thus, the ideal vaccine candidate will weigh determined immunogenicity with theoretical population coverage; in this case the E6 / E7 nano cocktail achieves the best balance of both.Earlier approaches use a single peptide or epitope; even scaffolded as a nanoparticle the epitope will only be able to prime responses to a single 9-mer, resulting in low global protection. In contrast, when stabilized, more full length antigen nanoparticles are used, as designed here, CTLs reacting to a more diverse array of peptides can be elicited, providing greater population coverage and a more effective vaccine.

[0167] Altogether, these expanded epitope, full length antigen DNA-launched nanoparticles represent the next step in eliciting a more potent immune response (Figure 15C). In sequential order, it has been shown that monomeric DNA-launched antigens demonstrate superior response over peptides. Peptide-formulated nanoparticles demonstrate superior response monomeric DNA-launched antigens; stabilized antigen nanoparticles increase potential immunity over peptide-formulated nanoparticles, and finally here were present superior immune responses of DNA-launched stabilized antigen nanoparticle cocktail. The findings presented here can aid in reducing MHC-class restriction of current vaccine formulations while simultaneouslyincreasing potency and safety. The developed pipeline may also be easily applied to other desired antigens, aiding in development of new and potent vaccine candidates.Example 2: SequencesHPV16 E7 nanoparticle designsAll contain
