Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention provides eTEC linked glycoconjugates comprising a saccharide covalently conjugated to a carrier protein through a (2-((2-oxoethyl)thio)ethyl)carbamate (eTEC) spacer, immunogenic compositions comprising such glycoconjugates, and methods for the preparation and use of such glycoconjugates and immunogenic compositions.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A glyconconjugate comprising a Streptococcus pneumoniae -derived capsular polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein through a (2-((2-oxoethyl)thio)ethyl)carbamate (eTEC) spacer, wherein said glyconconjugate comprises less than about 15% free saccharide. 2. A glyconconjugate according to claim 1 , wherein said Streptococcus pneumoniae -derived capsular polysaccharide is a Pn-serotype 33F capsular polysaccharide. 3. A glyconconjugate according to claim 1 , wherein said Streptococcus pneumoniae -derived capsular polysaccharide is a Pn-serotype 22F capsular polysaccharide. 4. A glyconconjugate according to claim 1 , wherein said Streptococcus pneumoniae -derived capsular polysaccharide is a Pn-serotype 10A capsular polysaccharide. 5. A glyconconjugate according to claim 1 , wherein said Streptococcus pneumoniae -derived capsular polysaccharide is a Pn-serotype 11A capsular polysaccharide. 6. An immunogenic composition comprising a glycoconjugate according to claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, carrier, or diluent. 7. An immunogenic composition according to claim 6 further comprising an additional antigen. 8. An immunogenic composition according to claim 7 , wherein the additional antigen comprises a glycoconjugate of a Streptococcus pneumoniae -derived capsular polysaccharide selected from the group consisting of Pn-serotype 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 8, 9V, 10A, 11A, 12F, 14, 15B, 18C, 19A, 22F, 23F and 33F capsular polysaccharides. 9. An immunogenic composition according to claim 8 further comprising at least one adjuvant. 10. An immunogenic composition according to claim 1 , wherein said carrier protein is CRM 197 .
