This study followed WHO recommendations for in vivo antimalarial efficacy trials.
The study population comprised children aged 6 to 59 months with microscopically confirmed acute uncomplicated malaria. Other inclusion criteria included body weight ≥5kg, the presence of fever (≥37.5°C axillary) or a
Kidney dysfunction is an independent predictor of mortality in both adults and children with severe malaria. In the largest studies of paediatric severe malaria, approximately 25% of children had kidney dysfunction and these patients accounted for roughly 50% of total deaths.
Although the
Introduction/Rationale
The World Health Organization (WHO) in 2010 reported that malaria was endemic in 96 countries reflecting an improvement of the situation of 2005 where it was endemic in 106 countries. Malaria morbidity and mortality remain a serious problem in sub Saharan Africa especially in
In each site subjects will be randomized between four arms: artemether-lumefantrine + amodiaquine, artemether-lumefantrine + placebo, artesunate-piperaquine + mefloquine and artesunate-piperaquine + placebo.
In Cambodia the comparator will be artesunate-mefloquine due to the current well-documented
The aim of this study is to provide policymakers with updated efficacy and safety data of artesunate + amodiaquine in combination with a single low dose of primaquine (0.25 mg/kg) and data on genetic markers of tolerance/resistance to artemisinin based combination therapies (ACTs), proposed as an
All children in the right age group presenting with clinical signs of malaria at the study site were considered possible study subjects. The guardians of these children were informed about the study orally in Swahili according to the informed consent form. Those who were not willing to participate
Combination therapy, the new strategy for malaria treatment, is based on the hypothesis that two (or more) components of different mechanisms of action protect each other from development of resistance. Artemisinin as well as its two derivatives, e.g. artemether and artesunate, constitute a family
Objective(s):
The overall goal of the CARAMAL project is to contribute to reducing malaria mortality in children globally by improving the community management of suspected severe malaria cases. The project will contribute to this goal by advancing the development of operational guidance to catalyse
Dihydroartemisinin/Piperaquine (DHA-PQP or Eurartesim®) is recommended by World Health Organization Expert Board for the treatment of P.vivax malaria, in case of chloroquine-resistance (CQR). However, no clinical study has been conducted to assess the efficacy of DHA-PQP in P.vivax malaria in the
Malaria incidence has increased two- to three-folds over the past four decades, and nearly half the world's population now lives in regions endemic for malaria: In Asia, Africa, and South America. A global annual estimate of 300-500 clinical cases of malaria and mortality in the range of 1-2 million
In our study,30 patients with stage III/IV NSCLC will be enrolled to receive vaccination with an optimal concentration and amount of blood-stage P. vivax to observe the infection time, rate and cycle; principal clinical symptoms such as fever and anemia; heart, liver and kidney function; changes in
3.1 STUDY DESIGN Children with uncomplicated malaria meeting the inclusion criteria will be enrolled (after their parent/caretaker has given informed consent), treated on site with the drugs under evaluation and followed-up for a period of 42 days. Drugs will be given under direct supervision,
Dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DHA-PPQ) Cambodia s frontline artemisinin (ART) combination therapy (ACT) for Plasmodium falciparum malaria is failing to cure nearly half of patients in its western provinces. These treatment failures are caused by parasite strains that are resistant to both ART and
The investigators propose a multi-center observational study to assess the effect of artemisinin resistance (as defined by the presence of relevant Kelch13 mutations) on the efficacy of parenteral artesunate for the treatment of malaria, stratified for disease severity on admission.
