Trial Design
6Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: Part A - "Low" DoseActive Control2 Interventions
Part A vaccinees in the "low dose" arm will receive the lower dosing (20 μg FMP013 per 0.5 mL ALFQ) approximately 2 weeks prior to each vaccination. Vaccination to be delivered on 0,1,2 month.
Group II: Part A - "High" DoseActive Control2 Interventions
Part A vaccinees in the "high dose" arm will receive the lower dosing (40 μg FMP013 per 1.0 mL ALFQ) approximately 2 weeks prior to each vaccination.
Vaccination to be delivered on 0,1,2 month.
Group III: Part B - "Standard" DoseActive Control2 Interventions
Part B vaccinees in the "high dose" arm will receive the lower dosing (40 μg FMP013 per 1.0 mL ALFQ) approximately 2 weeks prior to each vaccination.
Vaccination to be delivered on 4,5,6 month.
Group IV: Part B - "Delayed" DoseActive Control2 Interventions
Part B vaccinees in the "high dose" arm will receive the lower dosing (40 μg FMP013 per 1.0 mL ALFQ) approximately 2 weeks prior to each vaccination.
Vaccination to be delivered on 0,1,6 month.
Group V: Part B - "Delayed Fractional" DoseActive Control2 Interventions
Part B vaccinees in the "high dose" arm will receive the lower dosing (40 μg FMP013 per 1.0 mL ALFQ) approximately 2 weeks prior to each vaccination.
Vaccination to be delivered on 0,1,6 month.
Group VI: ControlActive Control1 Intervention
Up to 6 subjects will be enrolled (defined as receiving malaria challenge) later in the trial to serve as challenge controls. Additional subjects may be recruited as alternates to ensure that 6 control subjects undergo the challenge. Any alternates not challenged will be released from the study at day of challenge.
