6 A problem statement Malaria caused by a parasite with a complex life cycle involving two hosts Disease caused by replication inside red blood cells Cannot rely on how most vaccines work a good memory immune response May need to do better than naturally acquired immunity 1. Infection (pre-erythrocytic stage) 2. Clinical Symptoms (asexual blood stage) 3. Mosquito Transmission (sporgonic stages) 6 6

11 Asexual Blood Evidence of naturally acquired immunity - III Pregnant women have a unique susceptibility to malaria infection, which diminishes as their parity increases. Malarial parasitemia is significantly more frequent in pregnant than in non-pregnant women. Parasite prevalence are highest in first pregnancy, and then fall profoundly with each subsequent pregnancy. McGregor, I. A. Am. J. Trop. Med. Hyg. 33: ,

22 Why are conjugates attractive? Technical Antibodies are important at all stages of lifecycle Conjugates are effective for inducing antibodies Plasmodium proteins are difficult to manufacture Safety and pharmacovigilance (PV) Carrier proteins effectively used in licensed vaccines, worldwide (CRM197, OMPC, TT) Excellent safety history Established technology platforms may reduce PV requirements, compared to novel technologies 222
23 Summary Current malaria control situation unsustainable New tools required Strong evidence to support vaccines Natural and unnatural (noetic) immunity Antibodies associated with protective mechanisms for all 3 lifecycle stages in humans Effective conjugate vaccines could overcome technical challenges and accelerate development and implementation 2323
