cord-021966-5m21bsrwIf natural immunity capable of preventing re- infection follows an initial infection with the pathogen, can a specific host immune effector mechanism( e.g., antibody, CD8 T- cell) be identified as the likely agent( or'correlate') of immune protection?
cord-021966-5m21bsrwIf so, can a threshold level of this specific immune correlate needed for protection from re- infection be defined?
cord-021966-5m21bsrwIf so, does the pathogen cause such a life- threatening disease that an attenuated version of the virus would face an impossible barrier for demonstration of safety?
cord-021966-5m21bsrwIf the infection occurs relatively rarely in an overall population, can a subset of the population be identified that has a higher risk of infection so as to accelerate the achievement of statistically significant protection?
cord-021966-5m21bsrwIf the protective immune response is mediated by antibodies, can the target antigen( be it a protein or polysaccharide) be produced in scalable quantities in a form that mimics its native structure so that it can effectively elicit antibody responses that can block the key functional role(s) of the target molecule in the pathogen lifecycle or otherwise lead to the clearance of an incipient pathogen infection?

cord-021966-5m21bsrwIs the antigen of interest sufficiently immunogenic on its own, or is augmentation of the desired immune response by conjugation to a specific carrier or addition of an adjuvant necessary to elicit a sufficient and sufficiently durable immune response in individuals in the target population for vaccination?
