Brief summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the RTS,S/AS01E malaria vaccine against both clinical and asymptomatic malaria infections by detecting Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) parasites in blood samples collected from children who received the primary and yearly booster doses of the RTS,S/AS01E vaccine, as part of their participation in the Malaria-094 parent clinical study. The genomic analysis was conducted on parasites found in blood spot samples from children aged 5-17 months, who were vaccinated according to different dosage and schedule regimens as part of the Malaria-094 parent clinical study.

Detailed description

This genotyping study of malaria parasites, collected from serial blood samples following RTS,S/AS01E immunization, assessed vaccine efficacy using molecular genetic data. The study aimed to identify the first infections post-vaccination and distinguish new infections from existing ones through an amplicon sequencing-based strategy. This involved deep sequencing of small, highly variable regions of the parasite genome, enabling both: 1. Highly sensitive detection of parasitemia (similar to conventional polymerase chain reaction \[PCR\]-based detection), and 2. Identification of genetically distinct parasite populations within or between affected individuals.

Number of Molecularly Confirmed New Malaria Infections From 14 Days Post-Dose 3 Through to 12 Months Post-Dose 3

A new molecularly confirmed malaria infection was defined by a detected new infection from genomic analysis of dried blood spot samples originating either from active monthly screening for infection or from unscheduled visits intended for the assessment of clinical malaria.

Time frame: From Month 2.5 to Month 14 for the R012-20 + R012-14-mD Pooled Group, the Fx012-14-mFxD Group and the Control Group, and from Month 7.5 to Month 19 for the Fx017-mFxD Group

Population: The analysis was performed on the ATP cohort which included all participants who received the first 3 vaccinations according to the Malaria-094 protocol and who were observed to be at risk for a molecularly confirmed malaria infection at 14 days post-Dose 3. As pre-specified in the analysis plan, this outcome measure was reported for the R012-20 + R012-14-mD Pooled Group because both the R012-20 Group and R012-14-mD Group followed the same interventional strategy until Month 14.

Time From First Vaccination to the Detection of the First New Malaria Infection Through to the Month 20 Study Visit

The number of days from the time origin in each analysis to the visit date associated with the first molecular detection of a new malaria infection. A new molecularly confirmed malaria infection was defined by a detected new infection from genomic analysis of dried blood spot samples originating either from active monthly screening for infection or from unscheduled visits intended for the assessment of clinical malaria.

Time frame: Up to 20 months post Dose 1

Population: The analysis was performed on the Total Vaccinated Cohort (TVC) which included all the participants who received at least one dose of study vaccine per Malaria-094 protocol.
