研究概览
简要总结
This study is designed to evaluate safety, reactogenicity, immunogenicity, and efficacy of GSK Biological's malaria candidate vaccine 257049 administered as standard doses at 0 and 1 months and 1/5th standard dose at 7 months (delayed fractional dose group) and 257049 administered as three standard doses one month apart (0, 1, 2-month group) in healthy malaria-naïve volunteers aged 18-50 years in the sporozoite challenge model.
An additional, delayed sporozoite challenge will assess persistence of protection induced by the primary immune schedule and if an additional dose can provide protection in those unprotected by the initial vaccination series.
详细描述
This protocol posting has been amended to reflect changes in Amendment 1 of the Protocol (20 April 2014).
Rationale for Protocol Amendment 1:
• In order to assess whether protection is maintained over time, and assess boostability, the protocol has been amended to incorporate another sporozoite challenge, after a single boost of 1/5th standard dose of RTS,S/AS01B, or no boost.
Study design:
- Dependent upon enrolment date during the screening period, the study duration will be approximately 19 months for each vaccinated subject in the delayed fractional dose group, 14 months for each vaccinated subject in the 0, 1, 2-month group, 7 months for each infectivity control subject in the challenge phase and 6 months for each infectivity control subject in the rechallenge phase.
- Vaccination schedules:
