Immunogenic compositions containing a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) gp140 protein, sorbitol, polysorbate 20, and histidine buffer are described. The described immunogenic compositions are advantageous in that they are stable at refrigerated temperature for extended periods of time, and are compatible with an adjuvant. Also described are methods for storing the immunogenic compositions.

HIV vaccine formulation

Immunogenic compositions containing a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) gp140 protein, sorbitol, polysorbate 20, and histidine buffer are described. The described immunogenic compositions are advantageous in that they are stable at refrigerated temperature for extended periods of time, and are compatible with an adjuvant. Also described are methods of using the immunogenic compositions to induce an immune response against an HIV in a subject. The immunogenic compositions can be administered alone, or in combination with one or more additional HIV antigens, or one or more adenovirus vectors encoding the one or more additional HIV antigens.

This invention relates to novel methods and formulations of nucleic acid pharmaceutical products, specifically formulations of nucleic acid vaccine products and nucleic acid gene therapy products. The formulations of the disclosure stabilize the conformation of DNA pharmaceutical products.

DNA vaccine formulations

The present invention relates to nucleic acid formulations of pharmaceutical products which comprise citrate and/or triethanolamine in concentrations which enhance stability of the nucleic acid. These formulations are suited for situations where prolonged storage occurs during the distribution and/or storage period prior to use.
