Adjunctive Ivermectin Mass Drug Administration for Malaria Control

Malaria,FalciparumNeglected Tropical Diseases5 more

This is a cluster-randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the additive benefit of Ivermectin (IVM) (or Placebo) mass drug administration (MDA) to dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) MDA for malaria control in a moderate to low malaria-endemic setting as an adjunctive strategy to existing programmatic malaria control measures. The regime of DP and IVM will target both human reservoirs of Plasmodium falciparum and the Anopheles gambiae vector respectively, with the aim of interrupting transmission. The trial will be conducted on the Bijagos Archipelago, where islands (clusters) will be randomised to receive seasonal DP and IVM or DP and Placebo MDA. The primary outcome will be the prevalence of infection with Plasmodium falciparum in all age groups detected by nucleic acid amplification testing during the peak malaria transmission season after two years of intervention.

Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria (Uncomplicated)

A partially blinded randomised controlled non-inferiority trial comparing the efficacy, tolerability and safety of Triple ACTs artemether-lumefantrine+amodiaquine (AL+AQ) and artesunate-mefloquine+piperaquine (ASMQ+PPQ) and the ACTs artemether-lumefantrine+placebo (AL+PBO), artesunate-mefloquine+placebo (ASMQ+PBO) (with single-low dose primaquine in some sites) for the treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria to assess and compare their efficacy, safety, tolerability.

Short Course Radical Cure of P. Vivax Malaria in Nepal

MalariaMalaria2 more

This study is designed as a multicentre randomized, open label trial to assess the safety and efficacy of a low dose short course PQ treatment (3.5mg/kg total dose given over 7 days) in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) normal patients with P.vivax and P falciparum to reduce the risk of subsequent P.vivax episodes.

InfectionsVector Borne Diseases10 more

This is an open-label, adaptive study using the P. falciparum induced blood stage malaria (IBSM) model to characterise the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile and safety of MMV367 (the IMP). Up to 18 participants will be enrolled in cohorts of up to 6 participants each. The study will proceed as follows for all participants: Screening period of up to 28 days to recruit healthy adult participants. Day 0: Intravenous inoculation with approximately 2,800 viable P. falciparum-infected red blood cells. Days 1-3: Daily follow up via phone call or text message. Days 4-7: Daily site visits for clinical evaluation and blood sampling to monitor malaria parasite numbers via quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Day 7 PM: Start of confinement within the clinical trial unit. Day 8: Administration of a single oral dose of the IMP (MMV367). Different doses of MMV367 will be administered across and within cohorts in order to effectively characterise the PK/PD relationship. Days 8-11: Regular clinical evaluation and blood sampling while confined to monitor malaria parasite numbers and measure MMV367 plasma concentration. Day 11 AM: End of confinement within clinical trial unit. Days 12-23: Outpatient follow-up for clinical evaluation and blood sampling. Day 24: Initiation of compulsory definitive antimalarial treatment with Riamet® (artemether/lumefantrine) and/or other registered antimalarials if required. Treatment will be initiated earlier than Day 24 in the event of: Insufficient parasite clearance following IMP dosing Parasite regrowth following IMP dosing Characterising the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship of MMV367 Participant discontinuation/withdrawal, Investigator's discretion in the interest of participant safety. Day 27: End of study visit for final clinical evaluation and to ensure complete clearance of malaria parasites.

To Evaluate Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability and PK of Intravenous Cipargamin in Participants With...

Severe Malaria

The purpose of this study is to identify the safe and effective dose of intravenous cipargamin in participants with moderately severe and severe malaria. The study also intends to evaluate clinical treatment success using a novel clinical endpoint for drug development in severe malaria. Severe malaria is a medical emergency and is affecting primarily young children in Africa. Injectable artesunate is the standard of care for the treatment of severe malaria and is highly efficacious. However, the spread of artemisinin-resistance in Plasmodium falciparum in Asian countries poses a threat for future treatment of patients with this life-threatening disease. To mitigate this risk, there is a need of another drug in malaria endemic countries. Cipargamin treatment results in rapid clearance of parasites including artemisinin resistant parasites.

Uncomplicated Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria

This study aims to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of the investigational drug KAF156 in combination with a solid dispersion formulation of lumefantrine (LUM-SDF) in pediatric patients (6 months to < 18 years of age) with uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria. There is an unmet medical need for anti-malarial treatment with a new mechanism of action to reduce the probability of developing resistance.

Acute Malaria

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic of the combination M5717 plus pyronaridine in participants with acute uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Pyramax (Artesunate/Pyronaridine) will act as an internal control providing reference safety data and a benchmark for the efficacy evaluation.
