简要总结
Primary objective: to demonstrate the non-inferiority of PCR adjusted adequate clinical and parasitological response at D28 of artesunate + amiodaquine versus artemether + lumefantrine, based on the first malaria attack of each subject.
Secondary objectives:
For the first attack: To compare the two groups of treatment in terms of:
- D14 efficacy
- Parasitological and fever clearance
- Clinical and biological tolerability
- Evolution of gametocyte carriage
- Cardiac tolerability (QTc)
For the repeated attacks: To compare the two groups of treatment in terms of:
- D14 and D28 clinical and parasitological effectiveness (PCR adjusted)
- Clinical and biological tolerability
- Proportion of patients without fever at D3
- Proportion of patients without parasite at D3
- Compliance
- Impact on anaemia
During the total follow-up of the cohort: To compare the two groups of treatment in term of:
- Treatment incidence density
- Impact of repeated treatment on clinical and biological safety
- Impact of repeated treatment on hearing capacity
