Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting dif
rent results.
Major scientific challenge to AIDS vaccine
Examples in nature: HBV HIV
Infection after sera conversion minority all
Disease after infection minority majority
Mortality after disease minority almost all
Observation:
• HIV doesn’t induce good protective immunity in natural infection
• Most vaccines had been made are against pathogen who induce
good protective immunity in natural infection.
Conclusion:
In evolution, human immune system is not strong enough
to control HIV infection
The Key to a successful HIV Vaccine
To design a novel vaccine, which can re-engineer the human
immune system overcoming the inherited weakness and
acquiring the ability to block or control HIV infection .

Comparison of humoral immune responses induced by the attenuated vaccin
e, the cloned attenuated vaccine and DNA/rVaccinia vaccines
Novel vaccine approaches
• Before challenge, all animals were immunized with DNA vaccine through ID only, ID+
EP or ID+EP+genetic-adjuvant apporaches, respectively.
• All animals were intrarectally challenged with pathossgenic SIVmac251.
• Plasma viral load was significantly reduced in the ID+EP group,but not other two groups
. Differences in anti-Gag responses may explain this observation.
• Reduction of SIV-DNA copies in rectal biopsies was observed in all the vaccinated anim
als.
These above 3 approaches may overcome the weakness of DNA vaccine in deli
very to human cells, a similar problem in gene therapy

Paper 4. University of Miami Miller School of Medicine Gp96-Ig-SIV vaccines induce
predominant immune responses at mucosal sites
• After the third immunization with cell secreted gp96-Ig-SIV vaccine, the SIV-
specific CD8 response was boosted to very high levels in the rectum and jejunum.
• The cell secreted gp96-Ig-SIV vaccine is safe and can induce strong poly-
specific, multifunctional and predominant CD8 responses in mucosal
compartments.
• T cell responses in the mucosal sites are thought to be critical for protection from
SIV/HIV infection.
This is a novel design of the HIV vaccine, with adjuvant targeting to DC,
the most important antigen presenting cell of our body.

Paper 5. Karolinska Institutet
Impact of in vivo CD4 binding during HIV-1 Env trimer immu
nizations of rhesus macaques
• Rhesus macaques were immunized with wt trimers or CD4 binding defective tri
mers.
• Antibodies against the co-receptor binding site were elicited in animals immuniz
ed with wt trimers, but not in animals immunized with the CD4-binding defectiv
e mutants. Differences in the quality of the in vitro neutralizing antibody respons
e were observed.
• Elimination of the Env-CD4 in vivo interaction region did not affect vaccine-ind
uced Env-specific T cell responses or levels of total elicited binding antibodies.
• A comparable decrease in plasma viral loads compared to unvaccinated controls
was also measured following challenge in all three groups.
This approach avoid the concern of toxicity, which may caused by using gp120
CD4 mimic molecular by other groups
Novel vaccine approaches
• It was shown that the Ad26 vector is safe and immunogenic in humans at all three d
oses.
