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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAdequate Clinical Response (ACR) of Tafenoquine: 28 Day Cure Rate28 Days
A subject will be considered a success (cure) if they have an Adequate Clinical Response (ACR). Tafenoquine was efficacious if the lower bound of the two-sided 90% confidence interval for the day 28 cure rate was not less than 85%
SecondaryNumber of Subjects Without Relapse of P. VivaxDay 28, Months 2, 3 and 4Number of subjects without relapse of P. vivax at 2, 3 and 4 months \- Blood smears were obtained at Days 28, 60, 90 and 120 to confirm the continued absence of P. vivax parasitemia
SecondarySafety and Tolerability of Tafenoquine as Defined by Most Common Adverse Events (AEs)90 DaysTo evaluate the safety and tolerability of the tafenoquine dosing regimens as defined by the most common AE's overall, occurring in \>10% of subjects in either treatment group
SecondaryParasite and Gametocyte Clearance Time (PCT and GCT)up to day 7 after baseline smear
Serial blood smears to detect the presence of P. vivax parasites and gametocytes, conducted every 12 hours up to and including day 7, until blood smear became negative were utilized to determine the time to clearance. PCT and GCT were considered cleared if 2 consecutive blood smears were negative.
OtherFever Clearance Time (FCT)through day 7
Measure of body temperature every 12 hours through day 7 was used to determine the time (to nearest 12 hours) from initiation of treatment until subjects temperature decreased to 37.2C and remained at or below that level for a minimum of 24 hours.
