A Phase 3 interventional study of amodiaquine+artesunate/artemether-lumefantrine in Uncomplicated Malaria, sponsored by University of Ghana Medical School. Status unknown at 1 site in Ghana. Open to participants aged 6 Months to 14 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2006-12-04.
Sponsored by University of Ghana Medical School · Phase 3, Interventional, and Treatment
Artemisinin combination therapies (ACT) are currently recommended for malaria treatment. Artemether-lumefantrine(A-L) and Artesunate+amodiaquine (A+A) have been the most commonly adopted of the recommended ACT regimens. In Ghana, A+A is the current first-line antimalarial treatment in Ghana, but there has been 1 efficacy report of this regimen in Ghana till date. Moreover, the safety of repeated treatments with ACT has been little studied. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of A+A vs. A-L, as well as the safety of repeated treatments of these regimens in a longitudinal trial in which recruited children will be followed up for 1 year.
