Detailed Description

Plasmodium vivax represents 50-80% of all malarial cases in Latin America and South East Asia. It is able to establish a dormant liver stage called the hypnozoite. Hypnozoite activation after initial infection can cause a relapse. Currently the only widely available drug is primaquine which requires administration over 14 days, resulting in poor compliance and treatment failure. Tafenoquine (an 8-aminoquinoline anti-malarial drug) has been shown to possess activity against all stages of the plasmodium life cycle, including the dormant stage in the liver. This is a multi-centre, double dummy, double blind, parallel group, randomized, active control study which is conducted in two parts. For both parts, subjects are treated with Chloroquine on days 1 to 3 (600mg, 600mg, and 300mg) to treat the blood stage vivax malaria. Part 1 will include at least 324 subjects and part 2 at least 600 subjects. Part 1 has 6 treatment arms, arms 1 to 4 contain different doses of Tafenoquine (50mg, 100mg, 300mg, and 600mg) dosed on day 1 or 2, arm 5 contains primaquine (15mg) dosing over 14 days (days 2-15 (15mg)) and arm 6 contains chloroquine only. The aim of this is to find a dose of Tafenoquine which meets the defined dose criteria. Based on Part 1 efficacy and safety, a single Tafenoquine dose (300 mg) will be studied in the pivotal Part 2. Part 2 contains 3 treatment arms one with the selected Tafenoquine dose (300 mg), the second arm will be 15mg Primaquine which will again be dosed over 14 days and the final arm contains chloroquine only dosed days 1-3 (600mg, 600mg, 300mg). Therefore as with Part 1, in Part 2 all subjects will receive Chloroquine. The aim of Part 2 is to investigate the safety and efficacy of the selected Tafenoquine/Chloroquine dose in the treatment and radical cure of Plasmodium vivax malaria. In addition to the Primary and Secondary endpoints stated below we will also be collecting; other efficacy endpoints (gametocyte clearance time, Recrudescence defined as any Plasmodium vivax parasitemia occurring on or before Day 29 (blood stage treatment failure), Incidence of Plasmodium falciparum malaria and Incidence of recrudescence and new Plasmodium vivax infection, determined by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), safety endpoints (clinically relevant haemolysis leading to drops in haemoglobin / haematocrit or complications thereof (required transfusions, acute renal failure), changes in methaemoglobin, gastrointestinal (GI) tolerability - incidence of abdominal pain, heartburn, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea and vomiting and ophthalmic safety - incidence of corneal deposits, retinal and visual field abnormalities. Data collected at up to four centres . Additionally, the incidence and severity of adverse events and abnormal laboratory observations will be presented).Pharmacokinetic endpoints (Population pharmacokinetic parameters for tafenoquine including but not limited to oral clearance (CL/F) and volume of distribution (V/F)and Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic endpoints (e.g. tafenoquine plasma concentrations) and selected Pharmacodynamic endpoints (e.g. relapse efficacy, change in methaemoglobin) if appropriate, will be explored.

The number of par with recurrence-free efficacy at 4 months has been summarized.	4 months post dose
Time to Recurrence of P Vivax Malaria	Recurrence was defined as the first confirmed presence of P vivax asexual stage parasites after clearance of initial parasitemia following CQ treatment. Time to recurrence was defined as the time (in days) from initial parasite clearance to recurrence. The time to recurrence was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. NA indicates data was not available due to insufficient number of participants with events during the follow up period in the study. The median number of days to recurrence along with 95% confidence interval has been presented for each treatment group.	Up to Day 180
Time to Parasite Clearance	Parasite clearance time was defined as time needed to clear asexual parasite from the blood that is, parasite numbers falling below the limit of detection in the thick blood smear and remaining undetectable after 6 to 12 hours. The time taken to achieve parasite clearance was analyzed using Kaplan Meier Methodology. The median parasite clearance time along with 95% confidence interval has been presented for each treatment group.	Up to Day 180
Time to Fever Clearance	Fever clearance time was defined as time from first dose of treatment to the time when body temperature falls to normal within Study Days 1-4 and remains normal for at least 48 hours up to the Day 8 visit. Fever clearance was considered to have been achieved once an initial temperature of more than 37.40 degree Celsius is reduced to a value less than or equal to 37.40 degree Celsius and in the absence of value more than 37.40 degree Celsius in the following 48 hours up to the Day 8 visit.

Number of Participants With Gastrointestinal Disorders	Gastrointestinal tolerability was analyzed by the number of par experiencing gastrointestinal disorders such as abdominal pain, heartburn, diarrhea, constipation, nausea, and vomiting. The number of participants with gastrointestinal disorders for each treatment group has been summarized.	Up to Day 180
Number of Participants With Keratopathy	Ophthalmic assessments were carried out at pre-qualified sites (Manaus) prior to randomization and at Days 29 and 90 and at withdrawal. Assessments were carried out at Day 180 if the Day 90 assessments showed abnormalities. The last assessment performed on the day of randomization or earlier was considered Baseline. The number of participants displaying keratopathy in each eye was summarized for each visit. The number of participants with new keratopathy at any time post Baseline was also reported. Ophthalmic Safety Population comprised of all participants in the Safety Population who have results from any eye assessments. Only those participants with data available at the specified data points were analyzed.	Up to Day 180
Incidence of Visual Field Abnormalities Based on Best Corrected Visual Acuity Test Scores	Ophthalmic assessments were carried out at pre-qualified sites (Manaus) prior to randomization and at Days 29 and 90 and at withdrawal. Assessments were carried out at Day 180 if the Day 90 assessments showed abnormalities. The last assessment performed on the day of randomization or earlier was considered Baseline. Best corrected visual acuity was assessed individually for each eye. Scores were recorded as a ratio. The values were used to derive a logMAR score for statistical analysis where logMAR=-1x log10 (ratio score).
