Vaccines are critical to controlling typhoid fever. Widespread vaccination diminishes the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains of S. Typhi. The economic benefits of vaccination are also substantial, as the costs of treating typhoid fever and its complications can be significant. Ty21a®, a killed whole-cell vaccine, and Vivotif®, a live-attenuated vaccine, have been available for decades but have relatively short durations of action and only provide partial protection. Vi polysaccharide-conjugate vaccines have improved the durability of protection, but there is still room for improvement. Typhax™, a novel alternative to traditional conjugate vaccines, utilizes Vi polysaccharide that is non-covalently entrapped in a poly-L-lysine and CRM197 protein matrix crosslinked by glutaraldehyde. When formulated with Advax-CpG™ adjuvant, Typhax demonstrated promising results in a range of animal models including mice, rabbits, and non-human primates in which it induces high and sustained serum anti-Vi immunoglobulin G and serum bactericidal activity, without any safety or reactogenicity issues. This novel vaccine approach offers the potential for a low-cost, more effective, and durable vaccine against typhoid fever, avoiding the need for frequent booster doses.","PeriodicalId":520408,"journal":{"name":"Microbes & immunity","volume":"2 1","pages":"92-100"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11798421/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143257789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
