Summary

This early-stage trial tests a new malaria vaccine (PfSPZ-LARC2) in 58 healthy adults who have never had malaria. The vaccine uses weakened malaria parasites that stop growing in the liver and cannot cause blood infection. Researchers will check safety and whether it protects against a controlled malaria challenge.
