Efficacy, Safety, and PK of M5717 in Combination With Pyronaridine as Chemoprevention in Adults and Adolescents With Asymptomatic Plasmodium Falciparum Infection (CAPTURE-2)

Phase 2a Proof-of-Concept, Multicenter, Randomized, Open Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of a Single Dose of the Combination M5717-pyronaridine as Chemoprevention in Asymptomatic Adults and Adolescents With Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria Infection (CAPTURE-2)

This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a single dose of M5717 plus pyronaridine tetraphosphate in clearing current Plasmodium falciparum infection and protecting against recurrent infections in asymptomatic adults and adolescents. The study will also assess the duration of protection provided by different doses of M5717 plus pyronaridine and the additional contribution of M5717 to the duration of protection using external study data.
