Summary

This early-stage study tests a single injection of MMV371, a long-acting medicine, to see if it safely prevents malaria in healthy adults and teens aged 12-50 in Rwanda. About 80 participants will get either the study drug or a placebo, and researchers will monitor them for 24 weeks to check for side effects and measure drug levels in the body. The goal is to find a new way to protect against malaria with just one shot.
