Boosting BCG with MVA85A: the first candidate subunit vaccine for tuberculosis in clinical trials.
There is an urgent need for an improved vaccine against tuberculosis. Heterologous prime-boost immunization regimes induce higher levels of cellular immunity than homologous boosting with the same vaccine. Using BCG as the priming immunization in such a regime allows for the retention of the benefic...
