Abstract

The development of a malaria vaccine has been accelerating in the last ten years. The number of clinical trials has increased and some malaria antigens have been tested in endemic areas. No potential vaccine has yet shown sufficient and lasting efficacy to justify its inclusion in a public health program. However, trials have unambiguously shown that some level of anti-malaria clinical immunity can be achieved by vaccination, both in experimental and in field conditions. Advances in malaria vaccine development are presented.
