Title
HIV Protease Inhibitors for the Prevention of Malaria in Ugandan Children
NCT number
NCT00978068
Status
Completed
Phases
Phase 3
Enrollment
176 participants, actual
Lead sponsor
University of California, San Francisco
Conditions
Malaria, HIV Infections
Interventions

Limitations and caveats
The study has limited statistical power for the comparison of uncommon events and limited evaluation of potential cardiotoxic effects, hence future studies of the safety of coadministration of lopinavir-ritonavir and lumefantrine are warranted.

Registered outcomes6

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryIncidence-density of Malaria Defined as the Number of Incident Episodes of Malaria Per Time at Risk.Time from randomization to at least 24 months of follow up or until end of the study
SecondaryPercentage of Uncomplicated Malaria Episodes With Accompanying Adverse Events That Occurred in the 28 Days Following Antimalarial Therapy28 days after antimalarial therapy
The rates of adverse events, defined as severity grade 2 or higher that are possibly, probably or definitely related to study drugs over the course of the 28-day period after antimalarial therapy with artemether-lumefantrine (AL).
SecondaryIncidence-density of Malaria Defined as the Number of Incident Episodes of Complicated Malaria Per Time at Risk.Time from randomization to at least 24 months of follow up or until end of the study
SecondaryEstimates of the 6-month Risk of a First Episode of MalariaEnrollment to 6 months follow up
To assess the effect of ART independently of potential interactions with antimalarial therapy after treatment for malaria, we compared the two groups with respect to the time to the first episode of malaria. Cumulative risk was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier product-limit formula.
Secondary28-day Risk of Recurrent Parasitemia28 days after antimalarial therapyTo assess the effect of potential interactions between ART and artemether-lumefantrine, the risks of recurrent parasitemia at 28 days were compared between the two groups.
Secondary63-day Risk of Recurrent Malaria28 days after antimalarial therapyTo assess the effect of potential interactions between ART and artemether-lumefantrine, the risks of recurrent malaria at 63 days were compared between the two groups.

Among patients who were followed for 6 months, malaria did not develop in 34 patients in the NNRTI group and 44 in the lopinavir-ritonavir group; data on 10 patients in the NNRTI group and 7 in the lopinavir-ritonavir group were censored before the 6-month follow-up assessment.
