To my understanding, the lentivirus will inject itself to cells and replicate the malarial protein (rVar2) carrying the toxin that will eat up the cancer cells, these will indeed stick to glycosoaminoglycans that are found in cancer cells and the placenta so it makes sense that you don't want to inject this to someone pregnant, however the virus itself will clear up after a while so I don't see how it'd cause a permanent 'allergic' reaction. The rate of cancer cells killed and how long will it take for the virus to clear up from the body will be unknown until we have some concrete tests done.

Couple things. First, if you've got cancer, you've got bigger problems than placenta. Primarily, you'd be dead before you could give birth and I'd rather be alive than pregnant. But this is also just an initial version. It's possible to add a kill switch to later versions that kill off any cells carrying the gene, and therefor the malarial protein will clear from the patients system quickly once it's done it's job. Or do the reverse and have it only run when you take a specific compound, and as soon as you stop the gene turns off. But even as it stands this should only last a couple weeks. There's nothing in the construct to make this gene last so it should get cleared out on it's own in about 2 weeks
