Abstract

The safety and immunogenicity of 2 yeast-derived, blood-stage malaria vaccines were evaluated in a phase l trial. Healthy adults were given 2 or 3 doses of alum-adsorbed vaccine containing the 19 kDa carboxy-terminal fragment of the merozoite surface protein-1 (MSP-1₁₉) derived from the 3D7 or the FVO strain of Plasmodium falciparum fused to tetanus toxoid T-helper epitopes P30 and P2. The first 2 doses of MSP-1₁₉ were well tolerated. Hypersensitivity reactions occurred in 3 subjects after the third dose of MSP-1₁₉, including bilateral injection site reactions in 2 (one with generalized skin rash), and probable histamine-associated hypotension in 1. Serum antibody responses to MSP-1₁₉ occurred in 5/16, 9/16 and 0/8 subjects given 20 μg of MSP-1₁₉, 200 μg of MSP-1₁₉, and control vaccines (hepatitis B or Td), respectively. Both MSP-1₁₉ vaccines were immunogenic in humans, but changes in formulation will be necessary to improve safety and immunogenicity profiles. Copyright (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
