MALARIA ERADICATION
THROUGH VACCINATION

Sanaria is a biotechnology company developing vaccines protective against malaria. Sanaria’s vaccines have proven highly protective against Plasmodium falciparum infection in humans.
Sanaria's vaccines are intended to be used to prevent malaria in individuals and, in combination with other malaria control measures, to halt transmission of and eliminate malaria from communities.

Sanaria’s Malaria Vaccine Yields Unprecedented Protection In Clinical Trial

Results of a clinical trial of Sanaria® PfSPZ (Plasmodium falciparum sporozoite) Vaccine to prevent malaria infections, published today in the online issue of Nature Medicine magazine, show that the vaccine provided protection against infection with malaria parasites for at least 14 months in subjects who were exposed to Plasmodium falciparum parasites. The findings put the Sanaria vaccine on track to be the first malaria vaccine providing durable protection against infection with malaria parasites. Plasmodium falciparum is the malaria parasite that causes about 438,000 deaths and 214 million cases annually.

Dr. Stephen L. Hoffman wins 2015 CEO of the year at the World Vaccine Congress, Vaccine Industry Excellence Awards

Announced at the award ceremony during the 15th World Vaccine Congress, the 8th Vaccine Industry Excellence (ViE) Awards recognise those who have done outstanding work in the field, honour those who have made significant contributions to the development of the sector, and celebrate the great achievements made in the world of vaccines in the last year.

Sanaria’s Executive VP of Manufacturing and Process Development, Dr. B. Kim Lee Sim, featured in Malaymail

At a recent photoshoot by legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz of prominent scientists honoured by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, one woman stood out from the rest. Dr Betty Sim Kim Lee is the president and leading researcher of an organisation working on the development of vaccines for infectious diseases. She is also a Malaysian, a proud Nyonya born and bred in Kota Bharu. So, how did this small town girl become one of the most important malaria fighters in the world today?

An Urgent Need for Malaria Vaccines


The World Health Organization reports that malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum results in nearly half a million deaths worldwide annually. Malaria also causes over 200 million clinical cases globally each year. This disease is responsible for a loss of greater than 1% of Africa's GDP, and is a serious concern for travelers and military personnel.

Sanaria has an innovative approach to malaria vaccines using Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) sporozoites (SPZ) as the platform technology for immunizing people against malaria infection. The proven effective results of this approach are documented in Sanaria’s publications.

Global Collaboration: The I-PfSPZ Consortium


Global collaboration, publication and presentation of our work is paramount.

Semi-annually, Sanaria organizes the international PfSPZ Consortium (i-PfSPZ-C) meeting for our partners, collaborators and funders where we analyze, present and discuss our findings prior to publication. The i-PfSPZ-C allows our collaborators and partners to share their work, modify research and clinical plans based on the consortium efforts and map out future funding needs.
