P. vivax malaria is common in tropical regions, including Colombia, and can lead to recurrent fever, anemia, and prolonged illness. Currently, no licensed vaccine effectively prevents P. vivax infection.\n\nThe investigational vaccine (PvCS) contains synthetic peptides derived from the circumsporozoite (CS) protein located on the surface of P. vivax sporozoites. The vaccine is formulated with the adjuvant Montanide ISA-51 to enhance the immune response. This study aims to assess the safety of the PvCS\u002FMontanide ISA-51 formulation and to determine whether it can prevent malaria after controlled exposure to the parasite.\n\nThis is a Phase IIa\u002Fb, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial conducted by the Malaria Vaccine and Drug Development Center (MVDC\u002FCIV) in collaboration with ASOCLINIC IPS and the Pacific Health Institute (INSALPA) in Quibdó, Chocó, Colombia. A total of 72 healthy adults aged 18-50 years from malaria-endemic areas will participate.\n\nParticipants will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either the PvCS\u002FMontanide ISA-51 vaccine or a placebo. The study product will be administered by intramuscular injection at months 0, 2, and 4. After each vaccination, participants will be monitored for side effects and provide blood samples to measure immune responses, including antibody levels and T-cell activity.\n\nApproximately one month after the third vaccination, participants will undergo a controlled human malaria infection (CHMI), during which they will be exposed to P. vivax through the bite of infected mosquitoes under strict medical supervision. Following exposure, participants will be monitored daily using blood tests to detect malaria at the earliest stage.\n\nIf malaria parasites are detected-or if 21 days pass without infection-participants will receive prompt, effective antimalarial treatment based on Colombian national guidelines. All participants will continue to be followed for up to 12 months after the challenge to ensure safety and assess long-term outcomes.\n\nPrimary goals of the study include:\n\nDetermining whether the PvCS\u002FMontanide ISA-51 vaccine prevents P. vivax infection after CHMI.\n\nMeasuring the time between exposure and first detection of parasites (pre-patent period).\n\nEvaluating the safety and tolerability of the vaccine.\n\nSecondary goals include:\n\nMeasuring immune responses generated by the vaccine. Exploring relationships between immune responses and protection from infection. The total duration of the study is expected to be approximately 30 months, including recruitment, immunizations, challenge procedures, and follow-up. Results will help determine whether this vaccine can safely protect adults against P. vivax malaria and guide planning for future larger-scale vaccine trials in endemic populations.",[29,30,31],"Plasmodium Vivax Malaria","Plasmodium Vivax Infection","Malaria Prevention",[33,34,35,36,37,31,38,39,40,41,42],"PvCS Vaccine","Plasmodium vivax","Malaria Vaccine","Montanide ISA-51","Controlled Human Malaria Infection","Phase II Clinical Trial","Immunogenicity","Vaccine Efficacy","Colombia","Adult Volunteers","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-01-20",{"date":46,"type":47},"2026-01-28","ACTUAL",{"date":49,"type":23},"2026-01-19",{"date":51,"type":23},"2028-06-12",{"name":53,"class":54},"Malaria Vaccine and Drug Development Center","OTHER",""]
