Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: PfSPZ Challenge
Description: PfSPZ Challenge (NF54) acts as the immunogen in the PfSPZ-CVac approach to vaccinating against malaria. Participants will receive either one (in the pilot phase) or 3 (in the main phase) 400,000 or 300,000 aseptic, purified, cryopreserved, fully infectious PfSPZ injections by DVI (with concurrent administration of antimalarial drugs). Following immunization, participants in the main phase will be followed through the transmission season in order to assess vaccine efficacy.

Intervention: Pyrimethamine
Description: Pyrimethamine has been FDA approved for acute treatment and chemoprophylaxis of malaria due to susceptible strains of plasmodia.~Pyrimethamine has been shown to possess both liver and blood stage activity. In this study, we plan to use a higher dose of pyrimethamine, 75 mg orally for either one or two days each month. The pilot arms will receive either a total of 1 daily dose or 2 daily doses. The main arms will receive a total of 3 daily doses or a total of 6 doses.
