About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Open Label, Efficacy and Safety Study of Parenteral SAR97276A in the Treatment of Symptomatic Uncomplicated and Severe Malaria in Adults and Children

The objective of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of SAR97276A in severe malaria in pediatric patients. Before treating pediatric patients with severe malaria, the efficacy and safety of SAR97276A will be first tested in adult patients, then in pediatric patients, with uncomplicated malaria.

The safety and the concentration of SAR97276A in blood and plasma will be assessed in adult and pediatric patients.

Read the detailed description

The treatment will be administered by intramuscular or intravenous route depending on the cohort. The treatment will be administered as single dose or 3-day repeated dose. The patients will be hospitalized for 3 days and followed up to 28 days following study treatment.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Benin, Burkina Faso, Gabon, Tanzania. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: In accordance with protocol's predefined criteria and Data Monitoring Committee recommendation due to insufficient level of efficacy). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Combination of fever clearance, general condition improvement at 48h parasite reduction at 72h and no need for rescue therapy at 72h (time frame: 3 initial days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00739206, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
