Brief Summary

This is a phase Ib double-blind randomized placebo controlled age-deescalating trial to assess sagety and immunogenicity of two virosome formulated anti-malaria vaccine components (PEV 301 and PEV 302) administered in combination to healthy semi-immune Tanzanian adult and children.

Eligibility Criteria

Age5 Years - 45 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Male volunteers aged between 18 and 45 years for the adult group, and children of both sexes aged 5-9 years for schoolchildren group
  • Written informed consent obtained from the volunteer (adult) or guardian/ legal representative (children). In case patient is illiterate, an impartial witness should be present during the entire consent procedure
  • Free of obvious health problems as established by medical history and clinical examination before entering the study
  • Body Mass Index between 18 and 30 for adults; MUAC less than 12 for children

You may not qualify if:

  • Use of any investigational or non-registered drug or vaccine within 30 days preceding the first dose of study vaccine, or planned use during the study period and safety follow-up
  • Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within six months prior to the first vaccine dose
  • Any chronic drug therapy to be continued during the study period
  • Any confirmed or suspected acquired immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, or history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency
  • History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine
  • Acute disease at the time of enrollment. Acute disease is defined as the presence of a moderate or severe illness with or without fever (defined as temperature more than 37.5°C)
  • Acute or chronic, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal functional abnormality, as determined by physical examination or laboratory screening tests
  • Acute or chronic diabetes
  • History of chronic alcohol consumption and/or intravenous drug abuse
