Clinical development of a Pfs48/45-based malaria transmission blocking vaccine (REDMAL)
Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2014,
Malaria vaccines are needed to reduce the unacceptably high burden of disease and death in particular in the lowest income countries. Malaria vaccines aim at interruption of the life cycle of the parasite Plasmodium falciparum by induced immune responses in the humans. Transmission-blocking vaccines (TBMV) specifically aim at an arrest sexual stage development preventing the generation of infectio ...

"Multi-drug resistance in malaria under combination therapy: Assessment of specific markers and development of innovative, rapid and simple diagnostics." (MALACTRES)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
"This project aims to assess specific P. falciparum genetic markers for resistance to artemisinin-based combinations (ACT), and to develop innovative, rapid and simple diagnostics for malaria and these markers. Specific objectives are: • To develop and evaluate in disease endemic countries accurate low-tech molecular diagnostic tests. • To identify alleles of candidate resistance genes associated ...
