About this study

Official title: A Phase I/IIa Controlled Study of the Safety, Immunogenicity and Preliminary Efficacy of FMP011/AS02A Candidate Malaria Vaccine in Malaria-naive Adults Living in the United States

Phase I/II Trial of a Malaria Vaccine, FMP011/AS01B, in Adults Living in the United States of America.

Read the detailed description
  • Controlled challenge, Phase I/IIa WRAIR study.
  • Healthy, malaria-naive adults aged 18 - 50 years.
  • 2 groups, 5 subjects in group A (10µg dose) and 15 subjects in group B (50µg dose).
  • Control: none for immunization phase; infectivity controls for challenge and rechallenge phases. Six infectivity controls per day of challenge will be enrolled for the challenge phases, with 3 alternates available for challenge if needed.
  • Vaccination schedule of 0, 1 months.
  • Challenge of up to 15 subjects in Group B.
  • Contingent upon short term efficacy, rechallenge of initially protected subjects 6 months (+/- 2 months) after second dose of vaccine.
  • Self-contained study.
  • Duration of the study, per subject: approximately 15 months (screening, enrollment, vaccination, challenge and rechallenge).
  • Data collection will be by done at the site.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety - Most Frequently Reported Adverse Events and Grade

    An AE was defined as any reaction, side effect, or untoward event that occurred during the course of the trial whether or not the event was considered related to study drug or clinically significant.

    Grade 1: Mild Grade 2: Moderate Grade 3: Severe

    Measured: 30 days post vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Anti-LSA-1 Antibody Response in Titer Units

    Anti-LSA-1 Antibody Response in Titer Units on days 0, 28, 42 and 84

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Falciparum Malaria Protein 11 with AS02A adjuvant in people with Malaria and Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria, run by U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 28 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Nov 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety - Most Frequently Reported Adverse Events and Grade (time frame: 30 days post vaccination). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Nov 2018.
