Identification of RTS,S/AS01 vaccine-induced humoral biomarkers predictive of protection against controlled human malaria infection.
Trial report in JCI insight, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 4 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDThe mechanism(s) responsible for the efficacy of WHO-recommended malaria vaccine RTS,S/AS01 are not completely understood. We previously identified RTS,S vaccine-induced Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein-specific (PfCSP-specific) antibody measures associated with protection from controlled human malaria infection (CHMI). Here, we tested the protection-predicting capability of these measures in independent CHMI studies.METHODSVaccine-induced total serum antibody (immunoglobulins, Igs) and subclass antibody (IgG1 and IgG3) responses were measured by biolayer interferometry and the binding antibody multiplex assay, respectively. Immune responses were compared between protected and nonprotected vaccinees using univariate and multivariate logistic regression.RESULTSBlinded prediction analysis showed that 5 antibody binding measures, including magnitude-avidity composite of serum Ig specific for PfCSP, major NANP repeats and N-terminal junction, and PfCSP- and NANP-specific IgG1 subclass magnitude, had good prediction accuracy (area under the receiver operating characteristic curves [ROC AUC] > 0.7) in at least 1 trial. Furthermore, univariate analysis showed a significant association between these antibody measures and protection (odds ratios 2.6-3.1). Multivariate modeling of combined data from 3 RTS,S CHMI trials identified the combination of IgG1 NANP binding magnitude plus serum NANP and N-junction Ig binding magnitude-avidity composite as the best predictor of protection (95% confidence interval for ROC AUC 0.693-0.834).CONCLUSIONThese results reinforce our previous findings and provide a tool for predicting protection in future trials.TRIAL REGISTRATIONClinicalTrials.gov NCT03162614, NCT03824236, NCT01366534, and NCT01857869.FUNDINGThis study was supported by Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's Global Health-Discovery Collaboratory grants (INV-008612 and INV-043419) to GDT.
