Development of Effective Vaccines against Multiple Lifecycle Stages of Plasmodium vivax malaria (MultiViVax)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2021,

Plasmodium vivax is the most widespread malaria and constitutes a significant proportion of human malaria cases. P. vivax accounts for 100-400 million clinical cases each year among the 2.5 billion people living at risk in Latin America, Oceania and Asia. The recently revised Malaria Vaccine Technology Roadmap to 2030 recognises the severity of P. vivax malaria and calls for a vaccine intervention ...

Optimizing a deployable high efficacy malaria vaccine (OptiMalVax)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2021,

A highly effective malaria vaccine against Plasmodium falciparum should help prevent half a million deaths from malaria each year. New vaccine technologies and antigen discovery approaches now make accelerated design and development of a highly effective multi-antigen multi-stage subunit vaccine feasible. Leading malariologists, vaccine researchers and product developers will here collaborate in ...

InFLUenza virus UNIVersal VACcine development program (FLUNIVAC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

Effectively protecting the general population from seasonal and pandemic influenza has proven to be a challenge, since influenza viruses continue to escape from and evade immunity. Current influenza vaccines fail to provide long-lasting and broad protection against multiple strains of influenza. For the development of a universal influenza vaccine, we have to “do better than Nature”, since even na ...

Vaccines against helminth infections (PARAVAC)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

Livestock production efficiency is impaired by helminth infection which is ubiquitous in cattle, sheep and goats world-wide. It causes severely debilitating gastro-intestinal, respiratory and hepatic disorders, dependent on the infecting species. The treatment and prevention of helminth parasitism in livestock continues to rely almost exclusively on the use of anthelmintic drugs, an approach thre ...

West Nile Integrated Shield Project: Epidemiology, Diagnosis and Prevention of West Nile Virus in Europe (WINGS)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

The world is facing a variety of viral infections of high pathogenic potential. These are either novel or formerly only endemic in specific areas of the world. It is intrinsic to such emerging diseases that actions to prevent and fight them must be taken while the number of infections is still relatively low and geographically restricted. Therefore, research efforts are required well before large ...
