First seen Feb 26, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study looks at whether the malaria vaccine (R21/Matrix-M) can also lower the risk of invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS) disease in children under 5. Researchers will compare vaccinated and unvaccinated children who come to health centers with fever in the Democratic Republic of Congo. If effective, the malaria vaccine could provide an extra layer of protection against a serious bacterial infection.
