Filter by:Moxidectin is not approved to treat scabies in humans. The effective dose of moxidectin to treat scabies is not known. This study aims to assess the efficacy of a single administration of 8 mg, 16 mg, or 32 mg moxidectin per oral in achieving Scabies Complete Cure at Day 28. This study also aims to assess the safety of three strengths of single moxidectin doses in adults with scabies.
A population of approximately 50 pediatric subjects will be enrolled to assess the PK of spinosad and benzyl alcohol for 3 hours following a single, full-body topical application (open label) on a single in-clinic visit (Day 1, or Day 2 if screening only on Day 1). There will be approximately 50 subjects ages 1 month to 3 years 11 months of age enrolled with the goal of completing approximately 16 subjects. With assistance from a caregiver, Natroba will be applied over the entire body from the neck down to the toes (including the soles of the feet) and to the hairline, temples, forehead and possibly the scalp (if a scabies infestation is present on the scalp). The open-label Investigational Product (IP) will remain on the skin for at least 6 hours before removing the IP by gentle washing. The subjects will stay in the clinic until the 3-hour procedures are completed. Blood draws will be taken at 0 hours just prior to treatment, and then at 0.5 and 3.0 hours post-treatment. Heel sticks are likely to be the mode of blood collection for children less than 2 years of age. A ±5-minute time window will be allowed for all post-treatment blood samples. Removal of IP can occur by the caregiver at home after it has been on the skin for at least 6 hours before bathing the child. Safety will be assessed with adverse events (AEs), general skin and eye irritation assessments, and pre-dose and pre-discharge laboratory evaluations. Following the sample collections subjects will be released from the clinic and directed to their primary care physician for follow-up. Subjects will be provided scabies medications upon discharge to dispense to family members. These include 5% Permethrin for those in the household that are less than 4 years of age and Natroba for those in the household 4 years of age and older. Subjects who terminate early will not be given these medications to dispense to family members.
Scabies is a Neglected Tropical Disease, particularly important in autochthonous populations. Treatment failures could explain the high prevalence of this disease in Amerindian and Maroon populations of French Guiana. Our main objective is to look for specific sociodemographic risk factors for treatment failure of scabies in the remote areas of French Guiana. A secondary objective is to evaluate the prevalence of scabies and its complications.
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.
The ETSKABI study is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, initially single-armed and in case of treatment failure subsequently three-armed randomized clinical trial. Within the initial treatment phase, the to-date clinical efficacy of the standard therapy regimen according to the current German "S1-guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of scabies" is to be examined. The subsequent second phase focusses on three differently escalated treatment regimens in order to evaluate their potential to cure those patients still suffering from Scabies after standard therapy. In total, 183 patients with Scabies who meet all inclusion criteria and do not meet none of the exclusion criteria are to be enrolled and topically treated with Permethrin 5 % cream (up to two administrations, i.e. repeated one-time on day 14 in case of persisting Scabies). In case of treatment failure by the end of phase one, adult patients will be randomized to either receive an (i) escalated therapy with Permethrin 5 % cream (repeated topical administration on two consecutive days), (ii) an add-on-combination consisting of escalated therapy with Permethrin 5 % cream and Ivermectin p.o. or (iii) an escalated therapy with Permethrin 10 % cream (up to two administrations, i.e. repeated one-time on day 14 in case of persisting Scabies). The primary objective of the ETSKABI study is the clinical efficacy of the standard therapy by the end of phase one (standard therapy according to the S1-guideline). Beside this, clinical efficacy by the end of phase two (escalation phase) will be evaluated as well as adverse events in order to investigate over-all clinical safety.
This trial will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of ivermectin in scabies infected children weighing 5 to less than 15kg. This will allow future efforts to expand the indication of ivermectin treatment to infants weighing 5 to less than 15kg to treat numerous NTDs, allowing this young age group equitable access to the numerous benefits of ivermectin therapy.
Scabies remains a frequent condition that affects adults and children. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of two drug treatments against scabies in children and their close contacts. One group will apply topical permethrin 5% and the other group will receive oral ivermectin. Both groups will be treated twice, once at inclusion and the second time 10 days later. Both treatment regimens have been used widely and are safe to use.
