A Corrigendum on
Controlled Human Infections As a Tool to Reduce Uncertainty in Clinical Vaccine Development

Roestenberg, M., Kamerling, I. M. C., and de Visser, S. J. (2018). Front. Med. 5:297. doi: 10.3389/fmed.2018.00297

In the original article, there was a mistake in “Figure 2C” as published. In the figure legend, the incorrect number was used to indicate the second-best route and should have been “5.22 €M” instead of “5.97 €M”. The corrected Figure 2C appears below.

Figure 2. Decision tree showing the optimal order of questions to generate the highest project value, given estimated probability of success (PoS) and costs (million euro, €M) per scientific question. In the case PoS and costs for every question are equal, the order does not matter for the project value (A), however unequal distributions will clearly show different project values for the optimal order in blue, second best order in red and user defined order in green (B). A 1 €M additional investment in “correlates” has a major effect on the optimal order and project value (C).

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.

Keywords: vaccine, malaria, product development (PD) process, clinical development, low-income access
