Summary

This first-in-human clinical trial, was a dose escalation multi-center trial designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the vaccine component, BNT165b1, a ribonucleic acid (RNA)-lipid nanoparticle (LNP) encoding for part of the Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein (PfCSP). BNT165b1 was evaluated at three dose levels (DLs) to select a safe and tolerable dose in a 3-dose schedule.

Number of Participants With Solicited Local Reactions

Up to 7 days post any vaccination, and up to 7 days post each vaccination dose (i.e., post Dose 1 [at Day 8], Dose 2 [at Day 64] and Dose 3 [at Day 190]) · Participants

Cohort 1: BNT165b1: 3 mcg0 Participants
Cohort 2: BNT165b1: 10 mcg1 Participants
Cohort 3: BNT165b1: 30 mcg1 Participants
