PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative announces partnership to develop novel malaria vaccine
In a move that promises to expand the types of malaria vaccine candidates in clinical development, the PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative (MVI) today announced a new partnership with Sanaria Inc., a Maryland company, to accelerate development of a unique malaria vaccine candidate. view more (2006-12-18)
Early promising results in malaria vaccine trial in Mali
A small clinical trial conducted by an international team of researchers in Mali has found that a candidate malaria vaccine was safe and elicited strong immune responses in the 40 Malian adults who received it. view more (2008-01-23)
PROMISING RESULTS FOR MALARIA VACCINE (p 1927)
Results of a study from The Gambia in this week's issue of THE LANCET provide evidence of a vaccine that could prevent malaria caused by the micro-organism Plasmodium falciparum. P. falciparum malaria remains a major cause of disease and death in many parts of the tropics, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. The development of an effective vaccine... view more... (2001-12-05)
Novel approach for rapid identification and development of malaria vaccines
Malaria is the world's most frequent parasitic disease, affecting more than 100 countries in the tropical zones, mostly in Africa, and 40% of the world population, with more than a million deaths per year. view more (2007-07-25)
Researchers characterize potential protein targets for malaria vaccine
Researchers from Nijmegen and Leiden have now characterized a large number of parasite proteins that may prove useful in the development of a human malaria vaccine. view more (2008-10-31)
Researchers identify new way the malaria parasite and red blood cells interact
Virginia Commonwealth University Life Sciences researchers have discovered a new mechanism the malaria parasite uses to enter human red blood cells, which could lead to the development of a vaccine cocktail to fight the mosquito-borne disease. view more (2009-03-11)
Vaccine Blocks Malaria Transmission in Lab Experiments
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Malaria Research Institute have for the first time produced a malarial protein (Pfs48/45) in the proper conformation and quantity to generate a significant immune response in mice and non-human primates for use in a potential transmission-blocking vaccine. view more (2009-07-23)
First genetically-engineered malaria vaccine to enter human trials
Walter and Eliza Hall Institute scientists have created a weakened strain of the malaria parasite that will be used as a live vaccine against the disease. view more (2009-07-29)
Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine researchers have evidence a vaccine against malaria will reduce infection and disease rates
Today, researchers at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine's Center for Global Health & Diseases published data potentially having a strong effect on the three billion people exposed to malaria every year. view more (2007-12-21)
NEW APPROACH TO INFANT MALARIA AND ANAEMIA CONTROL (p 1471)
A new approach to malaria and anaemia control involving drug treatment delivered at the time of an existing WHO immunisation schedule could substantially reduce illness and death from malaria among infants, conclude authors of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET. An estimated 1 000 000 malaria deaths per year underline the need for improved... view more... (2001-05-09)
Malaria Vaccine Initiative And Apovia Inc. Partner To Pursue Rapid Development Of Novel Malaria Vaccine
A public-private partnership announced today promises to bring a powerful new malaria vaccine into human trials this year. The partnership between a San Diego-based biotechnology company, Apovia Inc., and the Malaria Vaccine Initiative at PATH (Program for Appropriate Technology in Health) is a multi-million dollar, multi-year agreement. The... view more... (2001-01-26)
Bug-Zapper: A dose of radiation may help knock out malaria
How are physicists helping an effort to eradicate malaria, the mosquito-borne disease that kills more than one million people every year" Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) used their expertise in radiation science to help a young company create weakened, harmless versions of the malaria-causing parasite. view more (2007-11-09)
CRESIB coordinates an international consortium to fight malaria caused by Plasmodium vivax
The CRESIB has today presented the research programme on malaria by Plasmodium vivax, a parasite causing over 70 million yearly cases of malaria in the world. view more (2007-07-18)
Sugar identified as key to malaria parasite invasion
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Malaria Research Institute (JHMRI) have identified a sugar in mosquitoes that allows the malaria-causing parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, to attach itself to the mosquito's gut. view more (2007-09-11)
Safer Method for Large-Scale Malaria Screening Developed
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health's Malaria Research Institute have developed a new test for detecting the malaria parasite in human urine and saliva. view more (2006-11-21)
A Step Closer to a Malaria Vaccine
An international team of scientists that includes a researcher from the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory has determined the three-dimensional molecular structure of a promising malaria-vaccine component. view more (2005-08-30)
Possible new compound for treatment of cerebral malaria
In a paper published online in PLoS Medicine researchers from Marseille describe the effects of a new compound that may be a future treatment for patients with cerebral malaria. view more (2005-08-23)

Antibody-based therapies effective at controlling malaria
Passive immunization through the development of fully human antibodies specific to Plasmodium falciparum may be effective at controlling the disease, report researchers led by Dr. Richard S. McIntosh from the University of Nottingham in a paper published this week in the open-access journal PLoS Pathogens. view more (2007-05-18)
