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.

Mosquito ‘factories’ to fight malaria

It's going to be fiddly work, but the saliva glands of mosquitoes are to be used as mini factories for churning out a novel vaccine against malaria. The vaccine is based on the whole parasite, rather than individual proteins, and may therefore work better than other vaccines in development because the body can mount a multi-pronged attack against it.

PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative Announces New Partnership To Accelerate Development of Novel Malaria Vaccine Candidate MVI and Sanaria Inc. to Conduct Initial Safety and Test-of-Concept Trial

In a move that promises to expand the types of malaria vaccine candidates in clinical development, the PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative (MVI) today announced a new partnership with Sanaria Inc., a Maryland company, to accelerate development of a unique malaria vaccine candidate.

A conversation with Stephen Hoffman

Scientist survives several near misses — including a crash-landing — before turning his efforts toward fighting malaria Off on his own in South America, he gets typhoid. In California, he is infected with malaria. On his way to a research site in Africa, the plane carrying him crash-lands. Is Stephen Hoffman, the leader of malaria-vaccine developer Sanaria, scared by his past skirmishes with death? Sometimes. Read the full story in the latest Washington Business Journal.

Rockville’s Sanaria to test malaria vaccine

While Sanaria Inc. works to keep its focus on developing revenue streams, the estimated 3,000 children who die each day in a global resurgence of malaria add a humanitarian perspective for the Rockville company. This week, Sanaria, headed by CEO Stephen Hoffman, begins manufacturing its first run of a unique and promising malaria vaccine.

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.
