Summary

This study tests an experimental malaria vaccine called PvCS/Montanide ISA-51 in 72 healthy adults aged 18-50 in Colombia. The vaccine aims to protect against Plasmodium vivax, a parasite that causes repeated bouts of fever and illness. Participants receive three shots over four months, then are exposed to infected mosquito bites under medical supervision to see if the vaccine prevents infection. The trial checks safety and immune responses, with results expected to guide future larger studies.
