Abbreviations: Fx017M, delayed fractional dose, comprising a 0.5-mL dose of RTS,S/AS01B followed 1 month later by a 0.5-mL dose of RTS,S/AS01B, followed 6 months later by a 0.1-mL dose of RTS,S/AS01B; 012M, 0- , 1-, and 2-month standard schedule comprising 3 doses of 0.5 mL of RTS,S/AS01B given 1 month apart.

a By the 2-sample Student t test, for comparisons for each antibody target.

b “Protected” denotes subjects who were protected after the first CHMI. “Not protected” denotes subjects who were not protected after the first CHMI.
