| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Control arm (LLIN-alone) | No intervention | The baseline and control intervention (LLIN-alone) correspond to what is implemented in each country by their respective National Malaria Control Programs (NMCP). This include universal coverage with Long-Lasting insecticidal Nets (LLIN). This arm is common to both countries (Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire) |
| LLIN + indoor residual sprayings | Experimental | LLIN+IRS arm consisted in applying, in addition to LLINs, IRS with Actellic® 300CS (Syngenta AG, Basel, Switzerland) at a target dosage of 1 g. of active ingredient (pirimiphos-methyl) per m² in every houses of the selected villages. This arm is common to both countries (Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire) Receives: Device: Indoor residual sprayings |
| LLIN + Larvicide | Experimental | The intervention consists in treating Anopheles breeding sites with BTI biological larvicide, in addition to LLINs. This arm was implemented in Côte d'Ivoire only. Receives: Device: Larvicide |
| LLIN+ One-health Ivermectin | Experimental | This arm consists in monthly injections of ivermectin to peri-domestic farm animals (mammals) during 4 consecutive months, oin addition to LLINs. This arm was implemented in Burkina Faso only. Receives: Biological: Ivermectin |
| LLIN + Behaviour Change Communication | Experimental | BCC complementary intervention (LLIN+BCC arm) was designed to target the following behaviors in the human population: (i) everyone sleep under an LLIN every night, (ii) every household and community member cleans up its environment to limits mosquito proliferation, (iii) every pregnant woman asks for, and takes the intermittent preventive treatment of malaria during pregnancy (ITP) and, (iv) people in charge of <5 y/o children come to see an health worker within 24h in case of fever. The intervention involve one health worker from the community per 35 households. Every health worker has the objective to perform 15 home visits (15-20 min), 20 interpersonal talks (15-20 min) and 4 group talks (15-30 min) per months. Receives: Behavioral: BCC |
What is being measured

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Indoor residual sprayings, Larvicide and BCC in people with Malaria, run by Institut de Recherche pour le Developpement at 2 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?
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 1 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Malaria incidence density (time frame: continuous monitoring during 2 years). 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 NCT03074435, which also lists 9 linked publications.
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 1 Oct 2024.
