No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the gametocytocidal and transmission reducing activity of artesunate-amodiaquine (ASAQ) and artemether-lumefantrine-amodiaquine (ALAQ) with and without a single dose of 0.25mg/kg primaquine (PQ). Outcome measures will include infectivity to mosquitoes at 2, 7 and 14 days after treatment, gametocyte density throughout follow-up, and safety measures including haemoglobin density and the frequency of adverse events.

Conditions

  • Malaria,Falciparum

Interventions

DRUG

Artesunate-amodiaquine combination

Tablets containing 50mg/135 mg or 100mg/270 mg of artesunate/amodiaquine will be administered according to weight as per manufacturer guidelines

DRUG

Primaquine Phosphate

The single dose of 0.25mg/kg PQ will be administered in an aqueous solution, according to a standard operating procedure (SOP) provided by the manufacturer.

DRUG

Artemether-lumefantrine

Tablets containing 20 mg artemether and 120 mg lumefantrine will be administered according to weight as per manufacturer guidelines

DRUG

Amodiaquine

Tablets containing 153 mg of amodiaquine will be administered according to weight, aiming for a dosage of approximately 10 mg (7.7-15.3mg)/kg/day, given once or twice daily (together with artemether-lumefantrine) for three days.
