Filter by:Emerging resistance to artemisinins and their partner drugs severely threatens the treatment of falciparum malaria in Myanmar with artemisinin combination therapies. To inform drug policy, it is crucial to evaluate alternative antimalarial treatments. The investigators here propose a randomized clinical trial comparing parasite clearance parameters and efficacy of 3 days arterolane-piperaquine with standard treatment with 3 days dihydroartemisinin (DHA)-piperaquine in adult patients with uncomplicated falciparum malaria in Myanmar stratified for the presence of "K13" mutation in the infecting parasite strains.
