Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Consenting adult males aged 18-50 years in good health.
- Will remain resident in the study area for the study duration
Exclusion Criteria:
- Clinically significant history of the following conditions; skin disorder (eczema, etc.), allergy, symptomatic immunodeficiency, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, endocrine disorder, liver disease, renal disease, gastrointestinal disease, neurological illness.
- History of splenectomy
- Haemoglobin less than 9.0 g/dl

- Likelihood of travel away from the study area
- HIV positive.
- History of contact dermatitis (due to the use of a potentially irritant disinfectant that may be present in trace amounts in the AdCh63 ME-TRAP vaccine, see the investigators brochure for details, attached)

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this trial is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of AdCh63 ME-TRAP and MVA ME-TRAP candidate vaccines in healthy adult volunteers in a malaria endemic region. The regime proposed in this trial has protected non-immune volunteers against sporozoite challenge in clinical trials performed by Oxford, and so may be protective against naturally acquired infection in Kenya.The study population will comprise 30 healthy adult males aged 18-50.
The investigators do not propose to include a placebo group. At this stage the investigators objective is to describe the safety profile in a small number of individuals, and the confidence intervals for the proportion of individuals with a particular event would be too wide for meaningful comparison with a placebo group. Immunogenicity will be judged by comparison with baseline.
