The present invention relates to mRNA sequences usable as mRNA-based vaccines against infections with influenza viruses. Additionally, the present invention relates to a composition comprising the mRNA sequences and the use of the mRNA sequences or the composition for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition, especially a vaccine, e.g. for use in the prophylaxis or treatment of influenza virus infections. The present invention further describes a method of treatment or prophylaxis of infections with influenza virus using the mRNA sequences.

Influenza mRNA vaccines

The present invention is directed to an artificial nucleic acid and to polypeptides suitable for use in treatment or prophylaxis of an infection with Zika virus or a disorder related to such an infection. In particular, the present invention concerns a Zika virus vaccine. The present invention is directed to an artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines comprising the artificial nucleic acid or the polypeptides. The invention further concerns a method of treating or preventing a disorder or a disease, first and second medical uses of the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines. Further, the invention is directed to a kit, particularly to a kit of parts, comprising the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines.

Zika virus vaccine

The present invention is directed to an artificial nucleic acid, particularly to an artificial RNA, and to polypeptides suitable for use in treatment or prophylaxis of an infection with a virus of the order Bunyavirales, particularly Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), or Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV), or a disorder related to such an infection. The present invention further concerns a Bunyavirales vaccine, particularly a SFTSV, RVFV, or CCHFV vaccine. The present invention is directed to an artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines comprising the artificial nucleic acid or the polypeptides. The invention further concerns a method of treating or preventing a disorder or a disease, first and second medical uses of the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines. Further, the invention is directed to a kit, particularly to a kit of parts, comprising the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines.

Bunyavirales vaccine

The present invention is directed to an artificial nucleic acid and to polypeptides suitable for use in treatment or prophylaxis of an infection with Henipavirus, particularly Hendra virus and/or Nipah virus or a disorder related to such an infection. In particular, the present invention concerns a Hendra virus and/or Nipah virus vaccine. The present invention is directed to an artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines comprising the artificial nucleic acid or the polypeptides. The invention further concerns a method of treating or preventing a disorder or a disease, first and second medical uses of the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines. Further, the invention is directed to a kit, particularly to a kit of parts, comprising the artificial nucleic acid, polypeptides, compositions and vaccines.

Henipavirus vaccine

The present invention provides mRNAs usable as vaccines against lassa virus (LASV) infections. Further, the Invention relates to (pharmaceutical) compositions and vaccines comprising said mRNAs and their use for treatment or prophylaxis of a lassa virus infection. The present invention further features a kit comprising the mRNAs, (pharmaceutical) compositions or vaccines and a method for treatment or prophylaxis of lassa virus infections using said mRNAs, (pharmaceutical) compositions or vaccines.

Lassa virus 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.

Flavivirus vaccine

The present invention provides mRNAs usable as vaccines against lassa virus (LASV) infections. Further, the invention relates to (pharmaceutical) compositions and vaccines comprising said mRNAs and their use for treatment or prophylaxis of a lassa virus infection. The present invention further features a kit comprising the mRNAs, (pharmaceutical) compositions or vaccines and a method for treatment or prophylaxis of lassa virus infections using said mRNAs, pharmaceutical) compositions or vaccines.
