Safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and efficacy of RNA-based malaria vaccine in healthy malaria naïve adults
Objectives
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and efficacy of an investigational RNA-based vaccine (BNT165e) for the prevention of P. falciparum malaria in healthy malaria-naive adults.
The multi-antigen malaria vaccine (designated BNT165e) is a combination of three distinct RNAs, BNT165c and BNT165d (composed of BNT165d1 and BNT165d2), encoding P. falciparum antigens encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles. The BNT165c RNA encodes the full Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein. The BNT165d1 and BNT165d2 RNAs both encode conserved, immunogenic segments of liver stage-expressed proteins.
