A Phase IIIB Comparative Trial of Seasonal Vaccination With the Malaria Vaccine RTS,S/AS01, Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention and of the Two Interventions Combined
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating RABIPUR®, RTS,S/AS01, and 2 other interventions for Malaria,Falciparum and Children, Only. Completed, enrolled 5,920 participants across 2 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
A double-blind, individual randomised trial will be undertaken in 6000 children under the age of five years living in areas of Burkina Faso or Mali where the transmission of malaria is intense and highly seasonal to determine whether the malaria vaccine RTS,S/AS01 is (a) as effective as SMC with SP + AQ in preventing clinical malaria (b) provides additional, useful protection when given together with SMC. The primary trial end-point will be the incidence of clinical episodes of malaria detected by passive case detection.
