Computational vaccinology includes epitope mapping, antigen selection, and
immunogen design using computational tools. Tools that facilitate the in silico
prediction of immune response to biothreats, emerging infectious diseases, and
cancers can accelerate the design of novel and next generation vaccines and their
delivery to the clinic. Over the past 20 years, vaccinologists, bioinformatics
experts, and advanced programmers based in Providence, Rhode Island, USA have
advanced the development of an integrated toolkit for vaccine design called iVAX,
that is secure and user-accessible by internet. This integrated set of
immunoinformatic tools comprises algorithms for scoring and triaging candidate
antigens, selecting immunogenic and conserved T cell epitopes, re-engineering or
eliminating regulatory T cell epitopes, and re-designing antigens to induce
immunogenicity and protection against disease for humans and livestock.
Commercial and academic applications of iVAX have included identifying
immunogenic T cell epitopes in the development of a T-cell based human
multi-epitope Q fever vaccine, designing novel influenza vaccines, identifying
cross-conserved T cell epitopes for a malaria vaccine, and analyzing immune
responses in clinical vaccine studies. Animal vaccine applications to date have
included viral infections of pigs such as swine influenza A, PCV2, and African
Swine Fever. "Rapid-Fire" applications for biodefense have included a
demonstration project for Lassa Fever and Q fever. As recent infectious disease
outbreaks underscore the significance of vaccine-driven preparedness, the
integrated set of tools available on the iVAX toolkit stand ready to help vaccine
developers deliver genome-derived, epitope-driven vaccines.
