A synthetic cycloimmunogen targeting the HIV-1 coreceptor CCR5 was evaluated for its capacity to induce CCR5-specific Abs with anti-HIV-1 activity in cynomolgus macaques. The cyclic closed-chain dodecapeptide (cDDR5) mimicking the conformation-specific domain of human CCR5 was chemically prepared, in which the Gly-Glu dipeptide links the amino and carboxy termini of the decapeptidyl linear chain (Arg(168) to Thr(177)) derived from the undecapepticlyl arch (Arg(168) to CYS178) of extracellular loop-2 in CCR5. The immunization of cynomolgus macaques with the cDDR5-conjugated multiple-Ag peptide (cDDR5-MAP) induced anti-cDDR5 serum production for similar to 15 wk after the third immunization. The antisera raised against cDDR5-MAP reacted with both human and macaque CCR5s, and potently suppressed infection by the R5 HIV-1 laboratory isolate (HIVJRFL), R5 HIV-1 primary isolates (clade A:HIV93RW004 and clade C:HIVMJ4 and a pathogenic simian/HIV (SHIVSF162P3) bulk isolate in vitro. To 14) examine the prophylactic efficacy of anti-CCR5 serum Ab for acute HIV-1 infection, cynomoigus macaques were challenged with SHIVSF162P3. The cDDR5-MAP immunization attenuated the acute phase of SHIVSF162P3 replication. The geometric mean plasma viral load in the vaccinated macaques was 217.10 times lower than that of the control macaques at 1 wk postchallenge. Taken together, these results suggest that cDDR5-MAP immunization is an effective prophylactic vaccine strategy that suppresses and delays viral propagation during the initial HIV-1 transmission for the containment of HIV-1 replication subsequent to infection.
