Detaljeret beskrivelse

På trods af de seneste fremskridt inden for malariabekæmpelse fortsætter Plasmodium falciparum med at dræbe næsten en halv million mennesker årligt, hvoraf de fleste er børn, der bor i Afrika syd for Sahara. Plasmodium falciparum er den mest udbredte malariaparasitart og årsagen til den mest alvorlige form for sygdom og død. Det tegnede sig for 99,7% af alle malariatilfælde i Verdenssundhedsorganisationens (WHO) Afrikanske region i 2018. Børn yngre end 5 år og gravide kvinder har størst risiko for malaria og død, hvilket tegner sig for 67 % af de anslåede 405.000 malariadødsfald på verdensplan, med 94 % af disse i den afrikanske region. Selvom der var en generel reduktion i malariadødsfald i 2018 sammenlignet med 2010, er reduktionsraten for malariadødelighed aftaget siden 2016, og dette får malariaforskere til at stille spørgsmålstegn ved, om de nuværende malariabehandlingsregimer er optimale og baseret på solidt videnskabeligt bevis.

Svær malaria er en medicinsk nødsituation, som, hvis den ikke behandles med det samme, resulterer i 100 % dødelighed. Det er grundlæggende, at plasmakoncentrationer af et meget effektivt antimalariamiddel opnås så hurtigt som muligt. Artesunate er et vandopløseligt hemisuccinat artemisininderivat, tilgængeligt som natriumhemisuccinatsalt til injektion. Artesunates fremragende antimalariaegenskab demonstreret ved hurtig parasitclearance, forstærkes af dets høje initiale maksimale koncentration (Cmax) og hurtige hydrolyse til dets aktive metabolit dihydroartemisinin (DHA).

Nuværende doseringsregimer for IV artesunat er baseret på tid til parasitclearance og ikke kliniske endepunkter relateret til fysiologiske ændringer, der opstår med parasitæmi. Andre mål for fysiologisk dysfunktion kan bruges som undersøgelsesendepunkter for en malariabehandlingsresultatanalyse af nuværende regimer for IV artesunat til svær malariabehandling. Forbedrede doseringsregimer vil føre til færre komplikationer og sandsynligvis færre dødsfald. En sådan strategi er nødvendig for yderligere at reducere den offentlige sundhedsgevinst mod malariadødelighed, som synes at være gået i stå for nylig.

For pædiatriske patienter er IV artesunat-dosering vægtbaseret for at justere for artesunat-clearance og er blevet udviklet baseret på tid til parasitemi-clearance-tider, som muligvis ikke helt afspejler klinisk helbredelse. P. falciparum-parasitter er kendt for deres evne til at inficere røde blodlegemer, som derefter viser varianter af overfladeantigener, der adhærerer til endotelvaskulatur i målorganer. Af denne grund afspejler måling af parasitclearance i det perifere blod muligvis ikke de fysiologiske virkninger af alvorlig malaria, der er et resultat af endeorganskader, hvad enten det er på grund af direkte svækkelse af blodgennemstrømningen og nedsat levering af ilt, en lokal inflammatorisk reaktion rettet mod inficerede røde blodlegemer bundet til vaskulært endotel, eller rosetsætning af inficerede og uinficerede røde blodlegemer ved vaskulaturen. Andre mål for fysiologisk dysfunktion, når de kvantificeres alene eller på en algoritmisk måde, såsom en score, kan mere præcist afspejle vellykket behandling, herunder serumlaktat, serumglukose, bicarbonatniveauer, BCS, kreatinin og hæmoglobin. Disse målinger, sammenlignet med standardparasitternes clearance-tider fra perifert blod, kan være vigtigere at kvantificere og relatere til farmakologisk dosering af antimalariabehandling.

Denne undersøgelse har til formål at udvikle et forbedret IV artesunat doseringsregime til behandling af svær malaria hos børn.

Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Arm 1
Deltagerne vil modtage standardbehandling med IV artesunate til behandling af svær malaria. Hvert 60 mg hætteglas med artesunsyre vil blive opløst i 1 ml 5 % natriumbicarbonat for at danne natriumartesunat og derefter blandet med 5 ml 5 % dextrose. Dette vil blive injiceret som en bolus i en indlagt IV-kanyle. Børn, der vejer <20 kg, vil modtage IV artesunat i en dosis på 3,0 mg/kg/dosis sammenlignet med ældre børn, der vejer >/= 20 kg, som vil modtage 2,4 mg/kg/dosis på tidspunkterne 0, 12, 24. Hvis du ikke kan tage oral medicin, vil IV artesunate fortsætte efter 48 og 72 timer. Børn, der kommer sig og er i stand til at gå over til oral antimalariabehandling efter minimum 24 timer, vil påbegynde et 3-dages forløb med oral artemisinin-kombinationsterapi i henhold til nationale retningslinjer. N = 100

Tidsramme: Baseline, 24 hours post-first IV Artesunate dose, 48 hours post-first IV Artesunate dose, Time of completion of planned IV Artesunate dosing (72 hours post-first IV Artesunate dose), and Time of first hospital discharge (up to day 9)
Direct bilirubin was recorded daily until discharge along with scheduled follow-up visits. Change from baseline in direct bilirubin was reported at pre-defined timepoints: 24 and 48 hours post-first IV artesunate, time of completion of planned IV artesunate dosing, and time of first hospital discharge. Primary exposure-response analyses were performed to assess the relationship between DHA PK parameters (AUC0-12, Cmax, t1/2) and direct bilirubin. Many participants did not have unique measurements collected for each of the four timepoints defined, therefore these participants were using the same values at multiple timepoints. To meet the independence assumption of the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure, only 24-hours post-first IV artesunate and time of completion of planned IV artesunate dosing had models fit and were assessed for significance for direct bilirubin.

Total parasite clearance was defined as the first negative thick blood smear (i.e., a thick blood smear for which there were no detectable P. falciparum parasites per 200 WBC) after a participant's last positive blood smear for P. falciparum. The date and time of total parasite clearance was defined as the collection date and time of the first thick blood smear to meet the definition of parasite clearance. Total parasite clearance by Day 2 was defined as a binary variable indicating whether total parasite clearance occurred within the first 50 hours post-first on-study dose of IV artesunate.
Day 1 through Day 7 (Samples were collected according to the following schedule post-first on-study dose of IV artesunate in hours: 0, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours, and at least every 24 hours until clearance.)
Number of Participants With Parasite (P. Falciparum) Clearance in the Subset Who Did Not Receive Any IV Artesunate or Other Artemisinin-based Therapy Before Enrollment
Tidsramme: Day 1 through Day 7 (Samples were collected according to the following schedule post-first on-study dose of IV artesunate in hours: 0, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours, and at least every 24 hours until clearance.)
