Groups2
Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | AS + oAC | All children will receive Artesunate (AS) 2.4 mg/kg IV at 0 and 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h. Children in the AS+oAC group will be given weight-based doses of oAC (Actidose Aqua) (Table 1) at 0, 6, 12, and 18 h. All children will then receive amodiaquine.~Actidose Aqua: Actidose Aqua (oAC) (Paddock Laboratories is sold over the counter in the US in bottles containing 25 g/120 mL (NDC # 0574-0121-04) or 50 g/240 mL (NDC # 0574-0121-08). oAC is stable at room temperature.~Artesunate: Artesunate (AS) obtained from Guilin Pharma (Shanghai), the only pharmaceutical company GMP pre-qualified by the WHO. The product artesunate for injection + 5% sodium carbonate inj + 0.9% sodium chloride inj will be delivered in vials of 30 mg and 60- mg vials, respectively, and will be dosed at 2.4 mg/kg as recommended for SM treatment by the WHO~Amodiaquine: Amodiaquine obtained from Pfizer (Dakar), is provided as 200-mg tablets or syrup (50 10 mg/mL), and will be provided as age-based doses. | 35 | 35 | OG000 |
| Group 2 | AS Only (Water) | Children in the AS only group will receive a weight-based volume of clean water (Bottled Water) to drink rather than the oAC.~Artesunate: Artesunate (AS) obtained from Guilin Pharma (Shanghai), the only pharmaceutical company GMP pre-qualified by the WHO. The product artesunate for injection + 5% sodium carbonate inj + 0.9% sodium chloride inj will be delivered in vials of 30 mg and 60- mg vials, respectively, and will be dosed at 2.4 mg/kg as recommended for SM treatment by the WHO~Amodiaquine: Amodiaquine obtained from Pfizer (Dakar), is provided as 200-mg tablets or syrup (50 10 mg/mL), and will be provided as age-based doses per the manufacturer's directions. | 35 | 35 | OG001 |
