TRIAL DESCRIPTION
Public title Phase 1/2b study of ChAd63 /MVA ME-TRAP in 5-17 month old Burkinabe infants and children
Official scientific title A Phase 1/2b double blind randomised controlled trial of the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of heterologous prime-boost immunisation with the candidate malaria vaccines ChAd63 ME-TRAP and MVA ME-TRAP in 5-17 month old Burkinabe infants and children
Brief summary describing the background and objectives of the trial ChAd63 ME-TRAP / MVA ME-TRAP heterologous prime-boost immunisation is a highly promising candidate malaria vaccination strategy. The vaccination strategy shows potent immunogenicity in malaria-endemic populations, including infants and children, and has an excellent track record of safety. This trial ims to evaluate the efficacy of this vaccination strategy in infants and children living in malaria-endemic areas of Burkina Faso where malaria incidence and mortality are high.
