Targeting PCSK9, through an innovative cVLP-based vaccine, enhanced the therapeutic activity of a cVLP-HER2 vaccine in a preclinical model of HER2-positive mammary carcinoma by Laura Scalambra, Francesca Ruzzi, Olga Maria Pittino, Maria Sofia Semprini, Chiara Cappello, Stefania Angelicola, Arianna Palladini, Patrizia Nanni, Louise Goksøyr, Cyrielle Fougeroux, Manuel L. Penichet, Adam Frederik Sander, Pier-Luigi Lollini

“…The combined vaccine approach elicited strong anti-human HER2 antibody responses (reaching 1–2 mg/ml range) comprising multiple immunoglobulins isotypes. cVLP-PCSK9 vaccine elicited anti-PCSK9 antibody responses, resulting in a marked reduction in PCSK9 serum levels. Although the anti-PCSK9 response was reduced when co-administered with cVLP-HER2, it remained significant. …”
