Methods for inducing an immune response

This invention relates to improved methods for modulating an immune response against an antigen using adenoviruses which express the antigen for priming immunization and antigen peptides for booster immunizations. Preferably the peptides are combined with QS21/MPL adjuvant. In particular, immunizati...
