2011 Trial "The RTS,S vaccine was tested in Phase III trials in 11 different African countries. These trials have had some successes. The earliest results, released in October 2011, showed that in children aged 5-17 months, vaccination with RTS,S reduced the risk of clinical malaria and severe malaria by 56% and 47%, respectively.[17] However, in results released in November 2012, the vaccine was less effective in infants aged 6-12 weeks at first vaccination."[1]
2015 (July) "The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) announced on July 24, 2015,that it has adopted a positive scientific opinion, under Article 58, for GSK’s malaria candidate vaccine Mosquirix TM, also known as RTS,S, in children aged 6 weeks to 17 months."[2]
