Ex vivo tetramer staining and cell surface phenotyping for early activation markers CD38 and HLA-DR to enumerate and characterize malaria antigen-specific CD8(+) T-cells induced in human volunteers immunized with a Plasmodium falciparum adenovirus-vectored malaria vaccine expressing AMA1

BACKGROUND: Malaria is responsible for up to a 600,000 deaths per year; conveying an urgent need for the development of a malaria vaccine.
