Summary

This is the first human study of a new malaria vaccine called PfSPZ-LARC2. It uses a live but genetically weakened malaria parasite that is designed to stop developing in the liver, preventing a full-blown infection. The main goals are to see if the vaccine is safe and tolerable in 58 healthy adults who have never had malaria, and to test how well it protects them against a controlled malaria challenge.
