Summary

Malaria is still responsible for more than 627,000 deaths each year, predominantly among children under 5 years old. Current reductions in deaths have stagnated, and additional setbacks for malaria control programs due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic are expected. To achieve malaria elimination and eradication a leverage concerted approaches to reduce clinical disease and prevent new infections is a must. The existing malaria controls tools including the a recombinant protein-based malaria vaccine (RTS,S ,(trade name MosquirixMosquirix )), a malaria vaccine currently undergoing implementation studies and endorsed by the World Health Organization on October 7, 2021, can reduce disease burden for patients but cannot ultimately support malaria elimination and eradication since their effect on malaria transmission is at most partial. Consequently, complementary interventions, such as transmission-blocking vaccines (TBVs) may prove to be a cost-effective intervention that can reduce on-going residual transmission and the cascade of new infections.

Vaccine AnAPN1

AnAPN1 is a recombinant protein expressed in Escherichia coli. It consists of the UF6b construct, derived from the sequence of the Anopheles gambiae alanyl aminopeptidase N (XM\_318000.4) and will be formulated with or without Synthetic Glucopyranosyl Lipid A (GLA)- LSQ adjuvant. Route of administration is intramuscular.
