We will be welcoming Associate Professor Danielle Stanisic to our club to update us on the Phase I clinical trial of the field deployable PlasProtecT malaria vaccine.
***After being carefully produced in the GMP-compliant facility at Griffith University, the vaccine has passed a crucial sterility test, building on its success in toxicological testing last year. With these milestones achieved, the team is now ready to prepare the Investigational Brochure and Clinical Trial Protocol, which will be submitted for Ethics approval to launch the trial in Q3 this year.
According to the most recent global data for 2023, there were 263 million malaria cases, a worrying increase from the previous year’s 249 million cases. While the estimated death toll of 597,000 is slightly lower than the 608,000 deaths in 2022, the numbers remain unacceptably high. The WHO reports that humanitarian emergencies—caused by conflict, violence, and natural disasters—disproportionately affected malaria-endemic populations in 2023. Global warming, coupled with rising humidity levels, has emerged as a major driver in the malaria death rate. On top of that, the spread of drug resistance in both Africa and Asia, along with rising mosquito resistance to insecticides, threatens to derail progress. Alarmingly, the highly infectious Asian mosquito, Anopheles stephensi, has now infiltrated the Horn of Africa, fuelling new malaria cases in urban centers. If this mosquito spreads further across the continent, the consequences could be catastrophic. *** Extract from the latest District 9640 MALARIA VACCINE PROJECT newsletter.
