Clinical Trial Summary

Objectives: Primary: • To characterize the infectivity of the new lot of Plasmodium falciparum strain 3D7 within the standard WRAIR CHMI model as compared to the current lot (historical data) Secondary: - To assess safety of the new lot of P falciparum parasites - To assess the kinetics of detecting parasitemia and parasite clearance by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) as compared to blood smear - To obtain plasma samples to restore the testing control pool for malaria serology testing and for future malaria research


Clinical Trial Description

This is a single center, open label CHMI study. CHMI will consist of exposure to Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites through the bites of infected mosquitoes. After the challenge, subjects will be evaluated daily for the development of malaria infection using a blood smear. Unless previously diagnosed and fully treated, subjects will be required to stay in a hotel for a maximum of 12 nights starting on or around the evening of Day 7 post challenge. All subjects diagnosed with malaria infection based on smears will be prescribed a standard malaria treatment regimen to begin on the day that parasitemia is detected. Subjects who do not become parasitemic (via smear) by Day 19 will be empirically treated for malaria. After the hotel phase, all challenged subjects will have a final scheduled follow-up visit on Day 28 (±7 days). ;
