Pfs230 yields higher malaria transmission-blocking vaccine activity than Pfs25 in humans but not mice

Sara A. Healy et al.

Summary: In this study, the vaccine candidate Pfs230D1-EPA induced stronger serum functional activity in rhesus monkeys and US adults compared to Pfs25, with complement-dependency noted. This suggests that Pfs230D1 may be more suitable for advancing transmission-blocking vaccines for malaria eradication.

A human monoclonal antibody blocks malaria transmission and defines a highly conserved neutralizing epitope on gametes

Camila H. Coelho et al.

Summary: This study identifies a human monoclonal antibody from Pfs230 vaccinated individuals that can effectively block the transmission of Plasmodium falciparum to mosquitoes in a complement-dependent manner and reacts with the gamete surface.

Seasonal Malaria Vaccination with or without Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention

Daniel Chandramohan et al.

Summary: Malaria control remains a challenge in many parts of the Sahel and sub-Sahel regions of Africa. The study showed that the RTS,S/AS01(E) vaccine was noninferior to chemoprevention, and the combination of these interventions resulted in significantly lower incidence of uncomplicated malaria, severe malaria, and death from malaria compared to either intervention alone.

Seasonal Malaria Vaccination with or without Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention

Daniel Chandramohan et al.

Summary: This study found that seasonal vaccination with RTS,S/AS01(E) was as effective as chemoprevention in preventing uncomplicated malaria, but combining the two interventions significantly reduced the incidence of uncomplicated malaria, severe malaria, and death from malaria compared to using either intervention alone.
