<strong>Prioritizing</strong> New Malaria<br />

Further Development<br />

The current state of affairs in the<br />

field of <strong>malaria</strong> vaccinology:<br />

Thoughts on how <strong>vaccine</strong><br />

<strong>candidates</strong> should be prioritized<br />

Thoughts on how <strong>vaccine</strong> <strong>candidates</strong> should be<br />

prioritized <strong>for</strong> <strong>further</strong> <strong>development</strong><br />

• Why prioritize<br />

• What to prioritize<br />

• How to approach prioritization<br />

Why prioritize<br />

• No need to prioritize if:<br />

• Resources are unlimited<br />

• Only one choice / no trade-offs between or<br />

within goals / projects<br />

• What is the current state of affairs in the global<br />

<strong>malaria</strong> <strong>vaccine</strong> pipeline<br />

prioritized <strong>for</strong> <strong>further</strong> <strong>development</strong><br />

• Why prioritize<br />

• What to prioritize<br />

• How to approach prioritization<br />

What to prioritize<br />

• Strategic goals<br />

• Specific approaches or targets<br />

• Preferred product characteristics<br />

• Which species<br />

• Which age groups<br />

• What geographies<br />

• With what other <strong>malaria</strong> interventions<br />

• Early versus late-stage <strong>development</strong><br />

• Specific projects<br />

The Malaria Vaccine Technology Roadmap<br />

• The Malaria Vaccine Technology<br />

Roadmap was launched in 2006 at<br />

the WHO Global Vaccine Research<br />

Forum and established a shared<br />

Vision, Strategic Goal (2025), and<br />

Landmark (2015) <strong>for</strong> <strong>development</strong><br />

of <strong>malaria</strong> <strong>vaccine</strong>s. The Roadmap<br />

also identified 11 Priority Areas in<br />

four categories: research, <strong>vaccine</strong><br />

<strong>development</strong>, key capacities,<br />

policy, and commercialization.<br />

The Malaria Vaccine Technology Roadmap circa 2006<br />

Priorities circa 2006<br />

• Prevent severe disease<br />

and death<br />

• P. falciparum<br />

• Children under five<br />

• Sub-Saharan Africa and<br />

other highly endemic<br />

countries<br />

• In conjunction with other<br />

<strong>malaria</strong> interventions<br />

Reasons to update the Roadmap<br />

• “The need to update the Roadmap Vision and 2025 Strategic<br />

Goal in response to a number of changes since 2006, including<br />

changes in the strategic role of <strong>malaria</strong> <strong>vaccine</strong>s and changes<br />

in <strong>malaria</strong> epidemiology and control status.” 1<br />

• “Further reviews of the vision and strategic goals will occur at<br />

least every 5 years in light of the epidemiological and control<br />

situation at that time and progress with other tools and<br />

technologies. Changes will be made only if necessary. Should<br />

projects aimed at either of the 2 strategic <strong>vaccine</strong> goals reach<br />

major milestone per<strong>for</strong>mance indicators, such as proof of<br />

concept of efficacy, this will trigger a WHO-led consultative<br />

process to develop <strong>new</strong> Landmark goals <strong>for</strong> late stage<br />

<strong>development</strong> of these <strong>vaccine</strong>s.” 2<br />

Updating the Malaria Vaccine Technology Roadmap<br />

Expanded Vision (draft)<br />

Vision after first public<br />

consultation in October 2012<br />

The <strong>malaria</strong> <strong>vaccine</strong> community will<br />

develop safe and effective <strong>vaccine</strong>s<br />

that prevent disease and death caused<br />

by Plasmodium falciparum and<br />

Plasmodium vivax in <strong>malaria</strong>-endemic<br />

regions. Vaccines that interrupt<br />

<strong>malaria</strong> transmission will contribute to<br />

ensuring that <strong>malaria</strong> is no longer a<br />

significant public health problem, and,<br />

in conjunction with other tools, will<br />

enable <strong>malaria</strong> elimination. Efficient<br />

global coordination and collaboration<br />

will stimulate the <strong>malaria</strong> <strong>vaccine</strong><br />

pipeline and accelerate progress<br />

towards these achievements.<br />

Expanded vision<br />

• Includes P. vivax<br />

• Not restricted to children<br />

under five<br />

• Includes all <strong>malaria</strong>endemic<br />

regions<br />

• Includes <strong>vaccine</strong>s that<br />

interrupt transmission<br />

• In conjunction with other<br />

<strong>malaria</strong> interventions,<br />

contemplates elimination<br />

Updating the Malaria Vaccine Technology Roadmap<br />

Expanded Strategic Goals – Part 1 (draft)<br />

Strategic Goals after first<br />

public consultation in Oct 2012<br />

In the 2025 to 2050 timeframe, license<br />

safe <strong>vaccine</strong>s targeting <strong>malaria</strong><br />

species with significant global disease<br />

burden and encompassing the<br />

following two objectives, <strong>for</strong> use by the<br />

international public health community 1 :<br />

1) Malaria <strong>vaccine</strong>s with a protective<br />

efficacy of more than 80% 2 against<br />

clinical <strong>malaria</strong>, suitable <strong>for</strong><br />

administration to both children and<br />

adults in <strong>malaria</strong>-endemic areas. The<br />

efficacy measure will be an 80%<br />

absolute reduction in incidence of all<br />

episodes of clinical <strong>malaria</strong> over at least<br />

2 years. 3<br />

New strategic goal <strong>for</strong><br />

disease prevention<br />

• Protective efficacy of more<br />

than 80%<br />

• Clinical <strong>malaria</strong><br />

• Over at least 2 years<br />

• Children and adults<br />

• Includes all <strong>malaria</strong>endemic<br />

areas<br />

species with significant global disease<br />

following two objectives, <strong>for</strong> use by the<br />

international public health community: 1<br />

2) Malaria <strong>vaccine</strong>s that inhibit<br />

transmission 4 of the parasite and<br />

thereby substantially reduce the<br />

incidence of human <strong>malaria</strong> infection to<br />

achieve elimination in multiple settings,<br />

in conjunction with other <strong>malaria</strong> control<br />

tools. The <strong>vaccine</strong>s should be suitable<br />

<strong>for</strong> administration to people of all ages<br />

in mass campaigns. 5<br />

Additional <strong>new</strong> strategic goal<br />

• Inhibit transmission*<br />

• Reduce incidence of<br />

<strong>malaria</strong> infections<br />

• Achieve elimination in<br />

multiple settings<br />

• All ages<br />

• Mass campaigns<br />

*Not restricted to any one life-cycle<br />

stage or <strong>vaccine</strong> approach<br />

• Why prioritize<br />

• What to prioritize<br />

• How to approach prioritization<br />

Probability of success (%)<br />

How to approach prioritization<br />

• A wide range of tools<br />

• Most efficient and effective, when done as a portfolio<br />

rather than on a project-by-project basis<br />

• Incents better resource stewardship<br />

• Allows richer strategic trade-offs analyses<br />

Summary<br />

• There is an ongoing need to prioritize the global <strong>malaria</strong><br />

<strong>vaccine</strong> pipeline.<br />

• Updating the Malaria Vaccine Technology Roadmap (T-2013)<br />

serves to maintain a shared Vision, Strategic Goals, and<br />

Landmarks <strong>for</strong> <strong>development</strong> of <strong>malaria</strong> <strong>vaccine</strong>s.<br />

• A portfolio management approach is likely the most efficient<br />

and effective way to deploy limited resources.<br />

• Leveraging the Controlled Human Malaria Infection models in<br />

Translational Research and Translational Development in a<br />

Learn-Confirm-Apply paradigm enables defining and<br />

managing the uncertainty in the high-risk endeavor of<br />

developing <strong>malaria</strong> <strong>vaccine</strong>s.<br />
