About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Single Dose Study to Assess Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of KAE609 in Adult Patients With Acute, Uncomplicated Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria Mono-infection

This study will assess efficacy, safety , tolerability and PK in uncomplicated adult malaria patients with acute P. falciparum infection after single dose with KAE609 at 75 mg, 150mg, 225mg and 300mg/day

Read the detailed description

the study is comprised of 4 sequential cohorts, in total there will be up to 48 patients enrolled in the study.

cohort 1: 6-12 patients receive 75mg single dose. cohort 2: 6-12 patients receive 150mg single dose. cohort 3: 6-12 patients receive 225mg single dose. cohort 4: 6-12 patients receive 300mg single dose. After approximately every 6 patients in any cohort have been treated with a given dose and complete the first 15 days, a safety and tolerability data review will be conducted by a Data Monitoring Committee(DMC). Consensus agreement of DMC is required to either escalate to the next dose level or expand a given cohort with an additional 6 patients in order to obtain more safety data.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 28-day Cure Rate

    28-day cure rate was measured by the endpoint of complete cure without recrudescence before Day 29. The primary variable of 28-day cure rate was defined as the proportion of patients with clearance of asexual parasitemia (by blood film) by day 6 of the study, and without subsequent recrudescence (by blood film).

    Measured: Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing KAE609 in people with Cure Rate, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 4 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Thailand, Vietnam. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Sep 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

28-day Cure Rate (time frame: Day 28). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Sep 2015.
