Nasty viruses and Institutional Review Boards

WHO: 50 million cases/yr

Problem: Increased disease severity with sequential infections may be due to antibody dependent enhancement. Macrophages do not have the normal dengue virus receptor. However, incomplete neutralization of virus can target virions to macrophage Fc receptors.

Jardetzky and Lamb, Nature 427: (2004)

Zhang, et al. Nature Structural Biology 10:907 (2003)

Q: How can we find out where neutralizing antibodies target the viral envelope protein, so we can use just these areas in a vaccine? A: Characterize the binding targets (epitopes) for individual human antibodies. (subquestion 1: how in the world do you get individual human antibodies???)

Immortalize B-cells with EBV and clone by serial dilution. Screen for binding to DENV. Characterize binding, neutralization, enhancement, and epitope mapping. We’re going to need IRB approval…

Ethical questions: Will people be hurt by this procedure? How can we minimize this risk? What will the fate of the cells be?

Different collaborating institutions: FGCU Tulane University Tan Tock Seng Hospital University of the West Indies

Different procedures. Different approval process. Different regulations. Different consent forms. Who even approves first?

Two full FGCU IRB applications with one amendment. All samples blinded and coded. Samples from Florida, Jamaica, and Singapore. No adverse incidences. Project ongoing, multiple HuMAbs isolated and characterized. First description of HuMAbs against dengue virus.
