Further research and optimisation of new malaria vaccines and technologies is ongoing at Swiss TPH. This includes testing of new candidates in Africa such as P27a that was brought in one go from a Phase [...] that the novel adjuvant GLA-SE induces significant cellular immune responses specific for P27a in malaria pre-exposed volunteers.
