“…However, the isolation of rare and potent mAbs that preferentially bind NPDP (Kisalu et al, 2018;Tan et al, 2018) or the NVDP repeats (Wang et al, 2020) identified these subdominant epitopes as sites of vulnerability on PfCSP. As these epitopes are not contained in RTS,S, these discoveries led to the development of next-generation vaccines against the junctional region (Atcheson et al, 2021;Calvo-Calle et al, 2021;Francica et al, 2021;Jelı ´nkova ´et al, 2021).…”
