Application of bacterial therapeutic vaccine Immunovac-VP4 in the treatment of pollinosis

In-depth study of the function and structure of the lymphoid tissue of the gastrointestinal tract and respiratory tract opens wide opportunities for the use of mucosal vaccines to improve immunity to various infectious agents. One such drug is The immunovac-VP4 vaccine containing pathogen-associated molecular structures (PAMSs) of microorganisms. They are the antigens of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus vulgaris, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus. Discovered in many studies and experiments, the ability of the vaccine to induce innate immunity provides opportunities for prevention and treatment of both infections and allergic diseases, because it promotes the switching of Th2 immune response to Th1. The aim of the study was to study the effectiveness of the complex use of bacterial therapeutic vaccine Immunovac-VP4 and allergen-specific immune therapy (ASIT) in pollinosis in children and adults. Materials and methods. Bacterial therapeutic vaccine Immunovac-VP4 was used annually, nasal and oral administration in patients before the course of ASIT standardized aqueous-salt solutions of allergens. Results. The therapeutic application of bacterial vaccines, Immunoac-ВП4 before the course ASIT has helped to reduce the frequency of acute respiratory infections in 8,5 times in comparison with the control group. Clinical efficacy of complex treatment according to the results of the survey of patients in 7 years after the start of therapy was 90%. There was a significant decrease In IgG4 to causally significant allergens, General immnunoglobulin E (IgE) and a tendency to decrease IgE. Conclusion. The use of bacterial therapeutic vaccine Immunovac-VP4, which is a natural ligand of toll-like receptors in combination with ASIT, seems to be an effective and promising direction in the treatment of allergic diseases.
