The need for an HCV vaccine

So, development of safe, effective, and affordable vaccines against HCV remain the best long-term hope for bringing the
global epidemic under control.
Prophylactic vaccine
Current data indicate that vaccine –induced immunity may not prevent
completely HCV infection, but rather prevent persistence of the virus
Acceptable goal. Chronic
persistence main cause of
pathogenesis & development of
serious conditions.
High risk groups
and

Therapeutic vaccine
The need for an HCV vaccine has been emphasized in 2011 when the US Department of Health and Human
Services issued the Viral Hepatitis Action Plan.
Replace/ enhance teatment
Benefits in expenses & logistics if patients treated with 2–3 doses
of vaccine with/without SOC, opposed to months of
combination.

The genetic heterogeneity
which is a hallmark of
HCV as RNA virus
Technical limitations in the study of
HCV
Difficulty of growing the virus in cell culture, a
problem which has been recently
overcome.
Challenges for developing an HCV vaccine
![Page 11: Prof. Fatma Amer Medical Microbiology and Immunology, ZAGAZIG FACULTY OF Medicine, Egypt President of ISC/HWG President of ArAPUA In the Era of Direct](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d0d5503460f949e138f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Should address viral heterogeneity, Should cover the various genotypes
and quasispecies of HCV,
Should elicit desired immune response.
A successful HCV vaccine

Desired Immune Response from HCV Vaccine
![Page 13: Prof. Fatma Amer Medical Microbiology and Immunology, ZAGAZIG FACULTY OF Medicine, Egypt President of ISC/HWG President of ArAPUA In the Era of Direct](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d0d5503460f949e138f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1. Envelope region:- Hypervariability is an obstacle.
2. Core protein:- Interfere with innate and adaptive immunity - Viral replication inefficiently controlled.
A key question, which HCV antigen a vaccine should target ??
![Page 14: Prof. Fatma Amer Medical Microbiology and Immunology, ZAGAZIG FACULTY OF Medicine, Egypt President of ISC/HWG President of ArAPUA In the Era of Direct](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d0d5503460f949e138f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Inducing T-cell responses to NS HCV antigens
- Relatively, genetically conserved, - Known to contain multiple CD4+ & CD8+ T-cell epitopes.
Targeting more than one Ag is most efficient
strategy.
Recent strategies have focused on

There have been tremendous advances in the development of antiviral therapy to treat chronic HCV infections. However, there still remains the problem of treating chronically infected persons for whom the use of antiviral drugs is impractical because of cost and logistics. Availability of therapeutic and prophylactic vaccine can provide more cost-effective alternatives.
