Summary

Malaria is a disease that affects many people in Africa and in Mali. It is caused by germs that are spread by mosquito bites. This study will look at the safety, effectiveness, and best dose of an experimental malaria vaccine in people who are regularly exposed to malaria. Study participants will be 60 adults, 18-55 years old, who live in Bandiagara, Mali. Volunteers will get either 3 full doses of the experimental malaria vaccine, 3 half doses of the malaria vaccine, or a rabies vaccine that has been approved in Mali. (Rabies is an infection of the brain that usually causes death, and can be caught from being bitten by infected dogs or bats.) The 3 vaccinations will be given by injection into the upper arm 30 days apart. Volunteers will be enrolled in the study for approximately 12 months after the first vaccination. Volunteers will have 14 blood samples collected during the study for testing to make sure that the vaccine is not harmful and to measure the effect of the vaccine.
