Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Ondanks recente vooruitgang in de bestrijding van malaria, doodt Plasmodium falciparum nog steeds jaarlijks bijna een half miljoen mensen, van wie de meesten kinderen zijn die in Afrika ten zuiden van de Sahara wonen. Plasmodium falciparum is de meest voorkomende malariaparasietsoort en de oorzaak van de meest ernstige vorm van ziekte en dood. Het was goed voor 99,7% van alle malariagevallen in de Afrikaanse regio van de Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie (WHO) in 2018. Kinderen jonger dan 5 jaar en zwangere vrouwen lopen het meeste risico op malaria en overlijden, goed voor 67% van de geschatte 405.000 sterfgevallen door malaria wereldwijd, waarvan 94% in de Afrikaanse regio. Hoewel het aantal sterfgevallen door malaria in 2018 in het algemeen is gedaald ten opzichte van 2010, is de daling van het aantal sterfgevallen door malaria sinds 2016 vertraagd en dit heeft ertoe geleid dat malariaonderzoekers zich afvragen of de huidige behandelingsregimes voor malaria optimaal zijn en gebaseerd zijn op degelijk wetenschappelijk bewijs.

Ernstige malaria is een medisch noodgeval dat, indien niet onmiddellijk behandeld, 100% sterfte tot gevolg heeft. Het is van fundamenteel belang dat plasmaconcentraties van een zeer effectief antimalariamiddel zo snel mogelijk worden bereikt. Artesunaat is een in water oplosbaar hemisuccinaat-artemisininederivaat, verkrijgbaar als natriumhemisuccinaatzout voor injectie. De uitstekende antimalaria-eigenschap van artesunaat, aangetoond door snelle klaring van parasieten, wordt versterkt door de hoge initiële maximale concentratie (Cmax) en snelle hydrolyse tot zijn actieve metaboliet dihydroartemisinine (DHA).

De huidige doseringsregimes voor intraveneus artesunaat zijn gebaseerd op de tijd tot klaring van de parasiet en niet op klinische eindpunten die verband houden met fysiologische veranderingen die optreden bij parasitemie. Andere metingen van fysiologische disfunctie kunnen worden gebruikt als onderzoekseindpunten voor een analyse van de uitkomst van de behandeling van malaria van de huidige regimes voor IV-artesunaat voor de behandeling van ernstige malaria. Verbeterde doseringsregimes zullen leiden tot minder complicaties en waarschijnlijk minder sterfgevallen. Een dergelijke strategie is nodig om de gezondheidswinst tegen malariasterfte, die recentelijk tot stilstand lijkt te zijn gekomen, verder terug te dringen.

Voor pediatrische patiënten is de IV-dosering van artesunaat op gewicht gebaseerd om de klaring van artesunaat aan te passen en is ontwikkeld op basis van tijd tot klaring van parasitemie, die mogelijk niet volledig de klinische genezing weerspiegelt. P. falciparum-parasieten staan ​​bekend om hun vermogen om rode bloedcellen te infecteren die vervolgens afwijkende oppervlakte-antigenen vertonen die zich hechten aan endotheliale vasculatuur in doelorganen. Om deze reden is het mogelijk dat meting van de klaring van parasieten in het perifere bloed niet de fysiologische effecten weergeeft van ernstige malaria die het gevolg is van schade aan eindorganen, hetzij door directe verslechtering van de bloedstroom en verminderde zuurstoftoevoer, hetzij door een lokale ontstekingsreactie gericht tegen geïnfecteerde rode bloedcellen. gehecht aan vasculair endotheel, of rozetten van geïnfecteerde en niet-geïnfecteerde rode bloedcellen in het vaatstelsel. Andere metingen van fysiologische disfunctie kunnen, wanneer ze alleen of op een algoritmische manier zoals een score worden gekwantificeerd, een succesvollere behandeling nauwkeuriger weergeven, waaronder serumlactaat, serumglucose, bicarbonaatspiegels, BCS, creatinine en hemoglobine. Deze maatregelen kunnen, in vergelijking met de standaard klaringstijden van parasieten uit perifeer bloed, belangrijker zijn om te kwantificeren en te relateren aan de farmacologische dosering van antimalariatherapie.

Deze studie heeft tot doel een verbeterd intraveneus artesunaatdoseringsregime te ontwikkelen voor de behandeling van ernstige malaria bij kinderen.

Experimenteel: Wapen 1
Deelnemers krijgen de standaardzorg met IV-artesunaat voor de behandeling van ernstige malaria. Elke injectieflacon van 60 mg artesunzuur wordt opgelost in 1 ml 5% natriumbicarbonaat om natriumartesunaat te vormen en vervolgens gemengd met 5 ml 5% dextrose. Dit wordt als bolus in een inwonende IV-canule geïnjecteerd. Kinderen die <20 kg wegen, krijgen IV-artesunaat in een dosis van 3,0 mg/kg/dosis, vergeleken met oudere kinderen die >/= 20 kg wegen, die 2,4 mg/kg/dosis krijgen, op tijdstippen 0, 12, 24. Als u geen orale medicatie kunt innemen, wordt IV-artesunaat na 48 en 72 uur voortgezet. Kinderen die herstellen en na minimaal 24 uur kunnen overstappen op orale antimalariatherapie, zullen volgens de nationale richtlijnen een driedaagse kuur orale artemisinine-combinatietherapie starten. N = 100
Geneesmiddel: Artesunaat
Artesunaat is een barnsteenzuurester van artemether.

Tijdsspanne: 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
Tijdsspanne: 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.)
