Abstract
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major respiratory pathogen responsible for severe pulmonary disease. We have developed a parenterally administered vaccine, BBG2Na, which is currently in a phase III clinical trial. BBG2Na comprises residues 130--230 of RSV-A G protein (G2Na) fused to the BB carrier protein. In this study, we show that BBG2Na can be delivered by the nasal route and generates both mucosal and systemic antibody responses when co-administered with cholera toxin B or a newly described delivery system, zwittergent 3--14. We found that nasal BBG2Na administration protects against RSV challenge and does not induce lung immunopathology upon subsequent RSV challenge.
