A system for selecting an immunogenic peptide composition comprising a processor and a memory storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to create a first peptide set by selecting a plurality of base peptides, wherein at least one peptide of the plurality of base peptides is associated with a disease, create a second peptide set by adding to the first peptide set a modified peptide, wherein the modified peptide comprises a substitution of at least one residue of a base peptide selected from the plurality of base peptides, and create a third peptide set by selecting a subset of the second peptide set, wherein the selected subset of the second peptide set has a predicted vaccine performance, wherein the predicted vaccine performance has a population coverage above a predetermined threshold, and wherein the subset comprises at least one peptide of the second peptide set. |
