Abstract
Induction of sterile immunity against sporozoite and liver stages of malaria is a long-standing aim in vaccine development. Genetically engineered, attenuated sporozoites were systematically evaluated in animal models. Murphy et al. present the first, promising clinical trial of early arresting parasites, PfGAP3KO, confirming safety and demonstrating efficacy against homologous challenge.
