Brief Summary:
The primary aim of the comparative trial is to assess the relative safety and efficacy of two artemisinin containing regimens amodiaquine plus artesunate AAQ and artekin both administered once daily for 3 days
Detailed Description:
With the emergence of species of multi drug resistant Pfalciparum across the archipelago the Indonesian Centre for Disease Control CDC now recommends amodiaquine plus artesunate in areas of high chloroquine and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine resistant strains of P falciparum High levels of chloroquine resistance to Pvivax has also emerged in the eastern provinces
This trial sets out to assess the efficacy of artekin and amodiaquine plus artesunate and artekin against both Pfalciparum and P vivax
and their safety profiles
Patients who present to an established rural outpatient clinic in Timika Papua with symptoms of acute uncomplicated infection with P falciparum Pvivax or both species will after laboratory confirmation of the diagnosis and having given informed consent to participate in the trial be enrolled in the study Patients will be treated as out-patients and then seen daily for the first week until aparasitaemic and thereafter at weekly visits to the clinic
The data used from this trial will be used to make a public health decision to determine a suitable alternative first line antimalarial in the Timika region In order to ensure that the data gathered will be relevant to the clinical setting in which the drugs will be used drug administration of medication will be deliberately designed to mimic conditions that will be experienced with widespread deployment eg once daily supervision
