Uncomplicated Falciparum Malaria Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy and Safety of Artesunate-amodiaquine and Dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine for the Treatment of Uncomplicated Falciparum Malaria in Mainland Tanzania
The World Health Organization recommends regular surveillance of antimalarial efficacy to monitor the performance of different drugs. The Tanzanian National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP) in collaboration with its partners have been implementing therapeutic efficacy studies (TES) to monitor the performance of different antimalarials in the country. Most of the studies conducted in recent years focused on artemether-lumefantrine which is the first line antimalarial for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria in Mainland Tanzania. However, data on the performance of other artemisinin based combination therapy (ACTs) is urgently needed to support timely review and changes of treatment guidelines in case of drug resistance to current regimen. This study was undertaken in the same NMCP framework to assess the efficacy and safety of alternative ACTs used or with potential use in Tanzania. The study assessed the efficacy and safety of artesunate-amodiaquine (ASAQ) and dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria in Tanzania. The study was undertaken at two NMCP sentinel sites of Kibaha and Ujiji from July to December 2017.
