ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to novel peptide immunogens for eliciting antibodies to LHRH comprising artificial T helper cell epitopes (Th epitopes) designed to provide optimum immunogenicity. The artificial Th epitopes are covalently linked to LHRH and optionally an immunostimulatory seqence.
