Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) aims to eliminate all human malaria by 2030 and is making substantial progress toward this goal, with malaria increasingly confined to forest foci. These transmission foci [...] ions of the World Health Organization (WHO) on malaria elimination states that small population groups which constitute a large proportion of the malaria transmission reservoir should benefit from targeted [...] targeted strategies to reduce transmission overall. These population groups are...

2016, there were more cases and deaths caused by malaria globally than in 2015. An effective vaccine would be an ideal additional tool for reducing malaria's impact. Sanaria((R)) PfSPZ Vaccine, composed [...] (SPZ) has been well tolerated and safe in malaria-naive and experienced adults in the United States and Mali and protective against controlled human malaria infection with Pf in the United States and
Feasibility and acceptability of insecticide-treated plastic sheeting (ITPS) for vector control in Papua New Guinea (Publications)
sheeting (ITPS) as a malaria control intervention in Papua New Guinea (PNG). METHODS: ZeroVector(R) ITPS was installed in 40 homes across four study sites representing a cross section of malaria transmission risk [...] potential application of ITPS in the national malaria control programme. The positive study findings suggest a longer-term evaluation of this promising malaria control intervention warrants consideration

In the P. berghei infected mouse model cure could be achieved at oral doses of 300 mg/kg [...] mg/kg over 3 consecutive days. ACT-451840 was clinically investigated up to an experimental human malaria infection model, where therapeutic effects could be shown.
