Vaccine formulations comprising antiidiotypic antibodies which immunologically mimic group B streptococcal carbohydrates

   
   

The invention relates to peptide, oligopeptide or polypeptide compounds that are capable of eliciting a protective immune response against the capsular polysaccharide of group B Streptococcus (GBS), particularly type III GBS. Such compounds are useful in the development of vaccines that are effective against diseases caused by these pathogens.
