Abstract: Studies in patients and chimpanzees that spontaneously clear Hepatitis C Virus
(HCV) have demonstrated that natural immunity to the virus is induced during primary
infections and that this immunity can be cross protective. These discoveries led to
optimism regarding prophylactic HCV vaccines and a number of studies in the chimpanzee
model have been performed, all of which resulted in modified infections after challenge but
did not always prevent persistence of the virus. Therapeutic vaccine strategies have also
been pursued in an effort to reduce the costs and side effects associated with anti-viral drug
treatment. This review summarizes the studies performed thus far in both patients and
chimpanzees for prophylactic and therapeutic vaccination, assesses the progress made and
future perspectives.
Keywords: vaccine; immune responses; immunotherapy; T cells; neutralizing antibody
1. Introduction
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an enveloped virus with a single stranded, plus sense RNA genome. The
RNA (~9.6 kb in length) consists of a ~341-base 5 non-translated region (NTR), a single open reading
frame encoding all virus-specific proteins (~3011 amino acids), and a 3 NTR. Translation of the
genome RNA is cap-independent and mediated by the 5 NTR which functions as an internal ribosome
entry site. The resulting polyprotein is cleaved, both co- and post-transla
