Malaria: How Do You Eradicate an Infectious Disease With No Vaccine? | Philip Eckhoff
Transcription
History
IDRI was founded in 1993, by Steve Reed, PhD. [1]
Malaria vaccine
IDRI is collaborating with the United States Agency for International Development to develop a malaria vaccine with the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research using Walter Reed's CelTOS malaria antigen in conjunction with IDRI's GLA-SE adjuvant.[2]
Visceral leishmaniasis vaccine
In February 2012, IDRI launched the world's first clinical trial of the visceral leishmaniasis vaccine. The vaccine is a recombinant form of two fused Leishmania parasite proteins with an adjuvant. Two phase 1 clinical trials with healthy volunteers are to be conducted. The first one takes place in Washington and is followed by a trial in India. The trials are funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.[3]
