The present invention relates to a vaccine, especially a combination vaccine providing at least a first and a second antigenic function, the combination vaccine comprising at least one RNA encoding at least one or more proteins or fragments, variants or derivatives of proteins awarding antigenic function, wherein the first antigenic function being a Fusion (F) protein or a fragment, variant or derivative of a Fusion (F) protein derived from the virus family Paramyxoviridae and the second antigenic function being an Hemagglutinin (HA) protein or a fragment, variant or derivative of an Hemagglutinin (HA) protein derived from the virus family Orthomyxoviridae. Furthermore, the present invention is directed to a kit or kit of parts comprising the components of said combination vaccine and to said combination vaccine for use in a method of prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of diseases, particularly in the prevention or treatment of infectious diseases like RSV and influenza.

Combination vaccine

The present invention relates to an mRNA sequence, comprising a coding region, encoding at least one antigenic peptide or protein of RSV infections Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) or a fragment, variant or derivative thereof. Additionally the present invention relates to a composition comprising a plurality of mRNA sequences comprising a coding region, encoding at least one antigenic peptide or protein of RSV infections Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) or a fragment, variant or derivative thereof. Furthermore it also discloses the use of the mRNA sequence or the composition comprising a plurality of mRNA sequences for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition, especially a vaccine, e.g. for use in the prophylaxis or treatment of RSV infections Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections. The present invention further describes a method of treatment or prophylaxis of RSV infections using the mRNA sequence.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine

The present invention is directed to an artificial nucleic acid and to a polypeptide suitable for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of an infection with a flavivirus, in particular an infection with yellow fever virus or with dengue virus, or of a disorder related to such an infection. The present invention is also directed to a composition, preferably an immunogenic composition, comprising the artificial nucleic acid or the inventive polypeptide. In particular, the present invention concerns an immunogenic composition against a flavivirus, such as yellow fever virus or dengue virus. Further, the invention concerns a kit, particularly a kit of parts, comprising the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptide or (immunogenic) composition. The invention is further directed to a method of treating or preventing a disorder or a disease, first and second medical uses of the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptide, composition, in particular the first and second medical uses of the immunogenic composition according to the invention.
