Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate three dose levels of a combination tablet and a fixed dose granule formulation of pyronaridine and artesunate PA for the treatment of acute uncomplicated falciparum malaria in children
Detailed Description: This is a Phase II open-label sequential-group dose-escalation single-centre study to study pharmacokinetics bioavailability comparison of tablets vs granules and safetytolerability of PA in paediatric patients with acute symptomatic uncomplicated P falciparum malaria The study population will include 60 patients comprising male and female children recruited from a single study site located in the endemic region of Gabon

Patients will be assigned sequentially to 1 of 4 treatment groups 15 per group Group A Tablets PA 48 mg 16 mg Group B Tablets PA 72 mg 24 mg Group C Tablets PA 96 mg 32 mg Group D Granules PA 60 mg 20 mg Oral tablets will be taken once daily for 3 consecutive days Days 0 1 and 2 The dose given to each patient depends on the dosing cohort group and the patients body weight

Each patient will attend the study site for screening and baseline procedures as well as receipt of the first dose of study drug on Day 0 Visit 1 baseline Patients will be hospitalised for the first 72 hours and remain near the study site for the entire duration of the study The patients will return to the study site for all scheduled follow-up visits until discharge on Day 42

The primary efficacy end point for the study is the incidence of patients with PCR-corrected adequate clinical and parasitological response ACPR on Day 28 In the case of adverse events reported and unresolved at Day 42 patients will be followed up for a further 30 days or until resolution of the event
