Summary

This study is designed to evaluate safety, reactogenicity, immunogenicity, and efficacy of GSK Biological's malaria candidate vaccine 257049 administered as standard doses at 0 and 1 months and 1/5th standard dose at 7 months (delayed fractional dose group) and 257049 administered as three standard doses one month apart (0, 1, 2-month group) in healthy malaria-naïve volunteers aged 18-50 years in the sporozoite challenge model.

An additional, delayed sporozoite challenge will assess persistence of protection induced by the primary immune schedule and if an additional dose can provide protection in those unprotected by the initial vaccination series.

Conditions

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

GSK257049 Dosage 1

RTS,S/AS01B administered as 0.5 mL dose at 0 and 1 months and 0.1 mL dose at 7 months for 0,1,7 M Group (delayed fractional dose group). In subjects unprotected in the first challenge, to receive a booster with a fractional dose of RTS,S/AS01B followed by rechallenge. In subjects protected in the first challenge, randomization to receive or not receive a booster with a fractional dose of RTS,S/AS01B followed by rechallenge.

BIOLOGICAL

GSK257049 Dosage 2

RTS,S/AS01B administered as three doses of 0.5mL given one month apart (0, 1, 2 M group) in the challenge model. In subjects unprotected in the first challenge, to receive a booster with a fractional dose of RTS,S/AS01B followed by rechallenge. In subjects protected in the first challenge, randomization to receive or not receive a booster with a fractional dose of RTS,S/AS01B followed by rechallenge.

PROCEDURE

Sporozoite-infected mosquitoes challenge

Mosquitoes infected approximately 2-3 weeks earlier that are likely to contain sporozoites in their salivary glands will be allowed to feed on the volunteers. For each volunteer, five mosquitoes will be allowed to feed over five minutes, after which they will be dissected to confirm how many were infected, and the salivary glands scored. The challenge is scheduled to occur approximately 21 days (3 weeks) after the last vaccination visit (Study Day 196). Volunteers who reconsent for the boost/rechallenge phase will be rechallenged with sporozoite-infected mosquitoes, scheduled to occur approximately 21 days (3 weeks) after the booster dose (Booster Phase Study Day 21).
