Disease burden is estimated to exceed 70 million disability-adjusted life-years, and leads to remarkably high YLD (years lived with disability) rates. Even more importantly, people with schistosomiasis are highly susceptible to malaria, tuberculosis and hepatic and acquired immunodeficiency viruses. There is only one drug, praziquantel, currently available for treatment and it has high efficacy, low cost, and limited side effects. However, only 13% of the target population has received the drug, and those treated are at continuous risk of reinfection necessitating repeated drug administration and the emergence of drug resistant parasites is a constant threat. There currently is no vaccine. While the target of >40% protection has been achieved with some molecules such as excretory-secretory proteins including calpain, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and cysteine peptidases, very recent articles reiterate the findings published during the last 2 decades of the last century, contradicting the established data of the pioneers of schistosome biology. A consensus should be reached without delay, in order to propose collaborative independent experiments and proceed ahead to pre- and clinical trials with efficacious candidate vaccine molecules. The proposed plan aims to finally reach an objective and fruitful agreement , via inviting established and young researchers from the United States, Brazil, China, Australia, and Europe who are working with different vaccine antigens, adjuvants, and approaches for immunization against S. mansoni, S. haematobium, and S. japonicum. It is hoped that the forum will end with a very few candidate antigens and a consensus approach regarding target immune responses, thus leading to encouraging the World Health Organization and other international foundations to sponsor the development and implementation of the urgently required, yet still elusive, vaccine for preventing and eliminating the transmission of schistosomiasis. 606 $aMedicine and Nursing$2bicssc 610 $aImmune responses 610 $aSchistosoma haematobium 610 $aSchistosoma japonicum 610 $aSchistosoma mansoni 610 $aSchistosomiasis 610 $aType 2 cytokines 610 $aVaccine 610 $aVaccine candidates 615 7$aMedicine and Nursing 700 $aAhmad Ali Othman$4auth$01278948 702 $aDonald McManus$4auth 702 $aRashika El Ridi$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136798703321 996 $aThe Schistosomiasis Vaccine - It Is Time to Stand Up$93014275 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01078nam0 22002771i 450 001 UON00346739 005 20231205104323.113 100 $a20091120d1940 |0itac50 ba 101 $afre 102 $aFR 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aNapoléon et la Lituanie en 1812$fBronius Dundulis 210 $aParis$cPresses Universitaires de FRance$d1940 215 $a344 p.$d23 cm. 410 1$1001UON00067024$12001 $aBibliothèque d'histoire contemporaine 606 $aLITUANIA$xStoria$x1812$3UONC074454$2FI 606 $aNapoleone Bonaparte$3UONC038829$2FI 620 $aFR$dParis$3UONL002984 700 1$aDUNDULIS$bBronius$3UONV193764$0703093 712 $aPresses Universitaires de France$3UONV245970$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20251017$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00346739 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI EUR D C 0813 $eSI MR 50207 5 0813 996 $aNapoléon et la Lituanie en 1812$91359072 997 $aUNIOR
