Brief Summary:
Snakebite envenomation SBE is a major public health problem in many developing countries Standard snake antivenom SA remains the primary treatment and has been shown to reduce mortality in observational studies conducted in several sub-Saharan African SSA countries Although it is relatively available in other endemic contexts such as Asia and Latin America there have been major challenges with the reliable supply of effective products in sub-Saharan Africa for many years Premium Serums ampamp Vaccines Pvt Ltd PSVPL recently introduced its SA brand namely PANAF-Premium TM manufactured to address unmet treatment needs in the local context This serum has received WHO approval for use in sub-Saharan Africa and is used in Cameroon with neutralizing efficacy for 24 species represented in Africa
This is an open-label Phase IV post-marketing surveillance study to collect safety and effectiveness data systematically following the administration of PANAF-Premium TM The study will describe the types severity and number of adverse events recorded following the administration of PANAF-Premium TM and its effectiveness for snakebite management Epidemiological data will also be collected along with information on the snake species typically responsible for bites in the North region of Cameroon the type of envenomation the total dose of SA required for reversal of envenomation and the total time required for clinical recovery This will complement the international and national pool of pharmacovigilance data

Detailed Description:
Background Snakebite envenomation SBE is a major public health problem in many developing countries Conventional snake antivenom SA remains the primary treatment and has been shown to reduce mortality in observational studies conducted in several sub-Saharan African SSA countries Although it is relatively available in other endemic contexts such as Asia and Latin America there have been major challenges with the reliable supply of effective products in sub-Saharan Africa for many years Premium Serums amp Vaccines Pvt Ltd PSVPL recently introduced its SA brand namely PANAF-Premium TM manufactured to the latest standards providing a solution to address unmet treatment needs in the local context This serum has received WHO approval for use in sub-Saharan Africa and is used in Cameroon with neutralizing efficacy for 24 species represented in Africa Since antivenom is of animal origin it can cause adverse reactions ranging from mild itching to fatal anaphylaxis therefore patients should be treated appropriately or given prophylactic premedication Approximately 20 of cases may develop early within a few hours or late five days or more allergic reactions after administration of snake antivenom This open-label Phase IV post-marketing surveillance study aims to collect safety and effectiveness data systematically following administration of PANAF-Premium TM The study will describe the types severity and number of adverse events recorded following administration of PANAF-Premium TM and its effectiveness for snakebite management Additionally epidemiological data will be collected regarding the snake species typically responsible for bites in the North Cameroon region the type of envenomation the total dose of SA required for reversal of envenomation and the total time required for clinical recovery This will also contribute to the international and national pool of pharmacovigilance data
Method An open-label Phase IV post-marketing surveillance trial will be conducted to describe the types severity and number of adverse events recorded during snakebite management The average dose of SA used will be identified and the duration of recovery as well as the type of snakes prevalent in the area will be explored Eligible patients will be admitted to the hospital and case management will be in accordance with the standard protocol followed in Cameroon and adapted from the guidelines of the African Society of Venomology Any medication or procedure necessary to save the patient will be permitted If antivenom serum is needed the study drug to be used is PANAF-Premium TM Snake Venom Antiserum-Pan Africa manufactured by Premium Serums amp Vaccines Pvt Ltd Any suspicious or unexpected serious adverse events SAEs will be recorded immediately and reported to the sponsorethics committee for further action There will be no restrictions on the use of any concomitant medication or other interventions or investigations mandated by the patient39s clinical condition
