What are adjuvants?
•Any substance that increases the memory immune response to a co-administered antigen
•Discovered by trial and error, e.g. alum, oil emulsions, saponins
•Common feature – induction of inflammation – encapsulated in danger-hypothesis
•Postulated to work via innate immune cell activation, inflammatory cytokine production and APC activation leading to co-stimulation of memory T- and B-cell responses
![Page 3: Vaccine adjuvants: the good, the bad and the ugly Professor Nikolai Petrovsky Director of Endocrinology, Flinders Medical Centre Research Director, Vaxine](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f295503460f94c41d60/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why do we need adjuvants
•Enhance antibody titers
•Generate CTL responses
•Improve cross-protective responses
•Antigen-sparing
•Speed kinetics of protection
•Decrease no. vaccine doses
•Extend immune memory
•Improve protection in neonates and the elderly

“After 2 doses of an H7N9 formulation containing 15 µg of hemagglutinin given without adjuvant, with AS03 adjuvant, or with MF59 adjuvant, the proportion achieving an HIA titer of 40 or higher was 2% without adjuvant, 84% with AS03 adjuvant, and 57% with MF59 adjuvant”

Adjuvant evolutionAdjuvant evolution
1st Generation (CFA, oil emulsions, bacterial extracts) • Emulsions/bacterial extracts generate danger signals by
inducing tissue damage– high reactogenicity• Induce autoimmunity in animal models
2nd Generation (alum, MPL, CpG, squalene, QS21) • Better characterised – stimulate TLR or inflammasome• Induce inflammatory cytokines (IL-1, TNF-a)• Can cause pyrexia• Remaining potential for autoimmunity
Next generation adjuvants (Advax)• Non-inflammatory • Don’t induce autoimmunity• Don’t induce pyrexia• Specific enhancement adaptive immunity
