Triple Antimalarial Combination to Accelerate the Parasite Clearance and to Prevent the Selection of Resistant Parasites
Triple Antimalarial Combination (Imatinib-DHA-PPQ) to Accelerate the Parasite Clearance and to Prevent the Selection of Resistant Parasites

The purpose of this study is to provide a new drug combination for a better treatment of P. falciparum for a faster parasite clearance and to counteract artemisinin resistance.

According to WHO, resistance to artemisinin derivatives (ART) is emerging in many areas of the Greater Mekong Region as a delayed parasite clearance following a standard treatment by artemisinin combined therapy (ACT). Artemisinin resistance is often accompanied by the resistance to the partner drugs such as piperaquine (PPQ), mefloquine (MEF), amodiaquine (AQ) and lumefantrine (LF). The slow and incomplete clearance of parasites following ACT treatment is considered to permit the selection of resistant parasites. The availability of new, more efficient treatments accelerating the clearance of parasites is therefore needed to counteract the selection of ART resistant strains. Imatinib (IMA) has been demonstrated to increase the efficacy of ART in a synergic fashion. This positive effect is further potentiated by low concentrations of PPQ. IMA is active both on the intra-erythrocyte asexual forms and on gametocytes. It is therefore expected that the combination DHA-PPQ-IMA should lead to faster and radical clearance of the parasites, therefore reducing the frequency of healthy carriers and transmission.

盲法描述:The research method will be a Phase 2 trial, 2 arms, randomized, open label (only the microscopist will be blinded), adaptive, dose de-escalation, trial conducted in adult male subjects with uncomplicated P.falciparum malaria. In all phases, patients will be treated by a triple combination IMA-DHA-PPQ (ARM 1) or by the standard DHA-PPQ treatment (ARM 2).
