The purpose of this study is to determine whether moxidectin (Mox) will be more effective than ivermectin (IVM) when used in single-dose combination therapies for lymphatic filariasis (LF).
This study will test the hypothesis that Moxidectin combination therapies are superior to ivermectin combination therapies for achieving sustained clearance of W. bancrofti microfilaremia.
This trial is designed as single-site, Phase III, randomized, open-label, masked-observer superiority trial with four treatment arms: ivermectin + albendazole (IA), moxidectin + albendazole (MoxA), ivermectin + diethylcarbamazine + albendazole (IDA), and moxidectin + diethylcarbamazine + albendazole (MoxDA). The primary endpoint is the proportion of participants achieving complete clearance of microfilaremia at 12 months (IA vs. MoxA comparison) or 24 months (IDA vs. MoxDA comparison). Block randomization by gender will be used to assign treatment arms.
The first 48 participants (12 each arm) will be treated at Agboville Hospital in Cote d'Ivoire at the Centre de Recherche de Filariose with inpatient AE monitoring and collection of post-treatment plasma drug levels (Part 1). For Part 1, active AE surveillance will be conducted in the hospital on days 1, 2, and 3, post-treatment, and in the participant's village of residence on day 7 post-treatment and passive surveillance will be conducted by trained village health workers on days 4-6. An interim safety analysis will take place after Part 1. If no safety concerns are identified, the remainder of the participants will be treated in their home villages, with active AE monitoring on days 1 and 2 post-treatment (Part 2) with passive surveillance by trained village health workers on days 3-7. Any participant in either Part 1 or Part 2 experiencing AEs of grade 2 or higher will be followed until adverse event (AE) severity falls below grade 2. Follow-up assessments for efficacy of treatments for all participants (Parts 1 and 2) will be conducted at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months.
The study includes both safety and efficacy analyses. The safety assessment (Part 1 only) ends 7 days after treatment (unless AEs remain grade 2 or higher). The efficacy assessment (Parts 1 and 2 combined) ends when participants are retested for filarial infection 36 months post-treatment. Participants in the IA arm will receive IA annually (standard of care). Participants in the other arms will receive the assigned treatment at baseline; those found to be microfilaremic at 24 months post-treatment will be retreated with the same treatment received at baseline. If clearance of microfilariae (Mf) at 12 months in the IA arm is superior to Mf clearance in the MoxA arm, the MoxA group will be switched to annual IA treatment.
The study design does not currently include stratification, nor do any sub-studies. However, the study may stratify based on pre-treatment Mf levels if high variability among pre-screening Mf counts is observed.

Recognizing that number and appearance of tablets received in each study arm will be noticeably different, this study will not be completely masked to participants or care providers. To minimize bias, administration of study medications will be performed by a staff member with no role in assessing AEs. AE assessments and all other outcome measures will be assessed by observers masked to the treatment assignment as best as possible.

| Blood microfilaria count, median (IQR) | Median | Inter-Quartile Range | Mf/mL |
|
| OG002 | IDA (Ivermectin + Diethylcarbamazine + Albendazole) | Participants will receive one oral dose of IVM 200 µg/kg + Diethylcarbamazine (DEC) 6mg/kg + ABZ 400 mg. Participants who are Mf positive at 24 months will be retreated with IDA at the same dosage. Ivermectin: Ivermectin (IVM) 200 µg/kg Diethylcarbamazine: Diethylcarbamazine (DEC) 6mg/kg Albendazole: Albendazole (ABZ) 400 mg |
| OG003 | MoxDA (Moxidectin + Diethylcarbamazine + Albendazole) | Participants will receive one oral dose of Mox 8 mg + DEC 6mg/kg + ABZ 400 mg. Participants who are Mf positive at 24 months will be retreated with MoxDA at the same dosage. Diethylcarbamazine: Diethylcarbamazine (DEC) 6mg/kg Albendazole: Albendazole (ABZ) 400 mg Moxidectin: Moxidectin (Mox) 8 mg |

|
| Primary | Clearance of Microfilaremia (IDA vs. MoxDA) | The proportion of participants in IDA and MoxDA study arms with complete clearance of W. bancrofti microfilaremia at 24 months after treatment. | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | 24 months |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Clearance of Microfilaremia | The proportion of participants in each study arm with complete clearance of W. bancrofti microfilaremia at 6, 12, 24, & 36 months after treatment. | The number of participants analyzed at different time points differs because we were unable to follow everyone consistently in the field at all timepoints. In many cases, our participants may need to leave for farming or other seasonal obligations. | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | 6, 12, 24, & 36 months |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Change in Mf Counts | Change in microfilariae counts (relative to baseline) at12 & 24 months | Mean microfilaria counts | Posted | Mean | 95% Confidence Interval | Mf/mL | Assessed at Baseline, 6, 12, & 24 months; Reported at 12 and 24 months |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Reduction in Circulating Filarial Antigen (CFA) Counts | Reduction in circulating filarial antigen (CFA) counts (relative to baseline) at 12 & 24 months | Geometric mean of circulating filarial antigen ng/mL at 12 and 24 months | Posted | Geometric Mean | 95% Confidence Interval | ng/mL | Assessed at Baseline, 6, 12, & 24 months; 12 and 24 months reported |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Inactivation of Adult Worm Nests in Male Participants Only | Inactivation of adult worm nests as assessed by scrotal ultrasound at 6, 12, and 24 months after treatment in male participants only | Participants with worm nest clearance (MALES ONLY) | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | 6, 12, & 24 months |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Frequency and Severity of AEs | Frequency and severity of AEs during the first 7 days after treatment. | Frequency of AEs | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | From baseline treatment to 7 days post-treatment |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Plasma Levels of Drugs/Metabolites Post Treatment | Noncompartmental pharmacokinetic analyses of DEC, ABZ, ABZSO, ABZSO2, IVM and Mox concentrations will be conducted using WinNonlin (Pharsight Corporation; Cary, North Carolina, USA). Drug plasma concentrations and computed pharmacokinetic parameters will be listed by subject and summarized by drug or metabolite (geometric mean with coefficient of variation, arithmetic mean with standard deviation, minimum, maximum, number of observations). Individual and geometric mean (by time) concentrations versus time will be plotted for each treatment group on both linear and natural logarithm scales. | Dose Normalized AUC (ng*hr/mL) | Posted | Mean | 95% Confidence Interval | ng*hr/mL | Baseline, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 24, & 48 hours post-treatment |
