NCT ID: NCT06060600 Completed - Clinical trials for Trypanosoma Brucei Rhodesiense; Infection

A Retrospective Analysis of Suramin Treatment for Stage 1 TBR

Start date: January 2, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study will include TBR HAT patients treated with suramin between 2000 and 2020 at three sites in Uganda and Malawi A natural history cohort composed of source data from approximately 200 patients from a published epidemiological study will be used as a comparator. This study's objectives are to evaluate the efficacy and safety of suramin in the Stage 1 treatment of TBR HAT.

NCT ID: NCT05637632 Completed - Clinical trials for Human African Trypanosomiasis

Assessment of Recombinant HAT-RDT Specificity

Start date: September 20, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Human African trypanosomiasis HAT, or sleeping sickness, is a tropical disease caused mainly by the parasite Trypanosoma brucei gambiense (gHAT). After a severe epidemic in the 1990s, the World Health Organization (WHO) now targets elimination of transmission of gHAT by the year 2030, which heavily relies on its diagnosis and treatment. Traditional screening tests (like CATT or rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs)) are based on the detection of antibodies against the parasite using native antigens, which are costly and dangerous to produce. New serological tests, using recombinant antigens, have been developed, but little is known about their field performance. The primary objective of this study is to assess the specificity of the newly-developed recombinant RDTs, since it will become very relevant as we move forward towards a screen&treat strategy. We will also compare the diagnostic accuracy and overall performance of iELISA and molecular testing.

NCT ID: NCT05256017 Completed - Clinical trials for Trypanosomiasis, African

Safety and Tolerability Study of Acoziborole in g-HAT Seropositive Subjects

OXA004
Start date: December 30, 2021
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Acoziborole as an oral, single-dose treatment was studied in an open-label pivotal Phase II/III trial (DNDi-OXA-02-HAT) in DRC and Guinea. The safety and efficacy results on g-HAT confirmed cases (all disease stages) from the pivotal study provided data, that allows to envision the treatment of confirmed g-HAT cases but there is still a gap in the management of g-HAT seropositive non-parasitologically confirmed individuals. Indeed, the standard g-HAT case definition implies the demonstration of the parasite in any body fluid via microscopy. However, there are factors such as low parasitaemia and the complexity and low sensitivity of parasitological methods that make such demonstration difficult. It has been demonstrated that a variable proportion (mainly depending on the prevalence) of such g-HAT "sero-suspects" are confirmed cases and, therefore, remaining as potential reservoirs of the parasite and a source of new infections hindering the efforts to eliminate the disease. The present clinical trial intends to expand the safety data of acoziborole and complement the safety profile obtained from the pivotal trial by assessing the safety and tolerability of a single dose of acoziborole compared with placebo in seropositive individuals who are not confirmed parasitologically. In addition to this study, an exploratory sub-study named 'TrypSkin' is planned to assess the presence of extravascular dermal T.b. gambiense in the population enrolled.

NCT ID: NCT04270981 Completed - Clinical trials for Trypanosomiases, African

ADME Study of Acoziborole in Healthy Subjects

Start date: February 5, 2020
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This is a single centre, open-label, single group, non-randomised, single oral dose study in healthy male subjects designed to assess the mass balance recovery, PK, metabolite profile and metabolite identification, and exploratory pharmacodynamics of acoziborole. It is planned to enrol 6 subjects. All subjects will receive an oral dose of 960 mg [14C] acoziborole on a single occasion as 4 capsules containing a small amount of radioactivity (not more than [NMT] 1000 nCi [37 KBq] 14C).
