Background: Outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses cause huge economic losses to the poultry industry worldwide. Vaccines that can protect chickens from infections caused by various variants of highly pathogenic H5Nx avian influenza viruses are needed owing to the continuous emergence of new variants. We previously showed that vaccines containing the H5 cleavage-site peptide from clade 2.3.4.4. H5N6 avian influenza virus protects chickens from infection with homologous clade 2.3.4.4. H5N6 avian influenza virus, but not from infection with the heterologous clade 1 H5N1 avian influenza virus. Therefore, we developed bivalent peptide vaccines containing H5 cleavage sites of viruses from both clades to protect chickens from both H5N1 and H5N6 avian influenza viruses. Methods: Chickens were vaccinated with two doses of a combined peptide vaccine containing cleavage-site peptides from clade 1 and clade 2.3.4.4. highly pathogenic H5N1 and H5N6 avian influenza viruses and then challenged with both viruses. The infected chickens were monitored for survival and their tracheae and cloacae were sampled to check for viral shedding based on the median tissue culture infectious dose of 50 (log{}_{10}TCID{}_{50}/mL) in Madin–Darby canine kidney cells. Results: Antibody production was induced at similar levels in the sera of chickens immunized with two doses of the combined peptide vaccines containing cleavage-site peptides from highly pathogenic H5N1 and H5N6 avian influenza viruses. The immunized chickens were protected from infection with both H5N1 and H5N6 avian influenza viruses without viral shedding in the tracheae and cloacae. Conclusions: Dual-peptide vaccines containing cleavage-site peptides of both clades can protect chickens from highly pathogenic avian influenza virus infections.
