Filter by:A Phase 1, open label clinical study to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, tolerability and efficacy of Plasmodium falciparum Malaria Protein 014 (FMP014) combined with (ALF with QS-21), saponin molecule derived from the bark of Quillaja species (ALFQ)) in healthy adult volunteers at different doses and dosing schedules.
A phase Ib age de-escalation and dose escalation open label clinical trial of the safety, immunogenicity and ex-vivo efficacy of a candidate malaria vaccine Pfs25-IMX313/Matrix-M administered intramuscularly in healthy adults and young children in Tanzania
A Phase 1, open label clinical study to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, tolerability and efficacy of Plasmodium falciparum Malaria Protein 013 (FMP013) combined with (ALF with QS-21), saponin molecule derived from the bark of Quillaja species (ALFQ)) in healthy adult volunteers at different doses and dosing schedules.
A randomised open labeled, parallel-group, controlled trial to assess the efficacy of paracetamol to reduce kidney dysfunction caused by cell-free haemoglobin-mediated oxidative damage in paediatric patients with falciparum malaria complicated by intravascular haemolysis.
Reactive and proactive case detection measures are widely implemented by national malaria elimination programs globally. Similarly, the Ethiopian Federal Ministry of Health decided to include reactive case detection (RCD) and targeted mass drug administration (tMDA) approaches as part of their elimination strategy, along with rigorous evaluation. This study aims to evaluate the impact on annual parasite incidence (API) and cost-effectiveness of implementing tMDA and RCD within a 100-meter radius of passively detected index case, compared with standard of care in the control arm. In addition, cross-sectional surveys will measure the change in malaria prevalence over the two-year study intervention period. The aim is to generate evidence to inform Ethiopia's national strategy for malaria elimination.
Plasmodium vivax malaria is difficult to manage because even after taking medicine that kills the infection in the blood, it can continue to hide quietly in the liver, later re-emerging into the blood and causing another episode of malaria illness (relapse). This clinical trial aims to enroll patient with P. vivax infections and try to detect signals in blood, urine and/or saliva coming from the silent liver stages to help identify who could benefit from treatment with primaquine. It also will explore if certain factors of patients negatively impact primaquine efficacy.
This is an Open label, first-in-human, Phase I/IIa, blood-stage P. vivax malaria vaccine trial to assess the safety, immunogenicity and efficacy of the blood-stage Plasmodium vivax malaria vaccine candidate PvDBPII in Matrix M1 in healthy adults living in the UK.
The purpose of this study is: 1) to evaluate the effectiveness and extended safety of the Plasmodium immunotherapy for the advanced malignant solid tumors. 2) To explore the safe and effective course of the Plasmodium immunotherapy for the advanced malignant solid tumors. 3) To explore the possible indications of Plasmodium immunotherapy for advanced malignant solid tumors. The treatment will last 5-10 weeks from the day of successful infection and will be terminated by antimalarial drugs.
This study is a human challenge study to assess the feasibility and safety of controlled human malaria infection (via P. vivax sporozites) in healthy volunteers, and to develop a bank of P. vivax-infected blood for use in future controlled human P. vivax malaria infection studies. Additional objectives are to obtain data on host immune response to P. vivax infection and pre-treatment gametocytaemia. This study is funded by the UK Wellcome Trust. The grant reference number are Oxford/MORU: 212336/Z/18/Z and 212336/Z/18/A, and Mahidol University: 212336/A/18/Z and 212336/A/18/A.
In the current study, three experimental approaches aiming at reducing malaria transmission will be tested. The study will cover two transmission season (2019 and 2020) and the interventions will vary by season. More specifically, in the 2019 transmission season (June-December) (Year 1), community case management of malaria (CCM) will be implemented in all eight villages as improved standard of care; in the 2020 transmission season (Year 2), the eight study villages will be divided into 4 study arms. CCM will continue in all villages; two villages will continue with CCM only (Arm 1, control); the three other pairs of villages will receive active fever screening and treatment (Arm 2); monthly mass screening and treatment (MSAT) (Arm 3); and mass drug administration (MDA) during the last 3 months of the dry season (April-June) (Arm 4). For MDA, the whole population (except for those not fulfilling the entry criteria) will be treated with a full course of dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) (320/40mg and 160/20mg piperaquine/ dihydroartemisinin per tablet) per manufacturer's guidelines (once daily for 3 days and according to body weight). The MDA treatment will be repeated 3 times at monthly intervals.
