High levels of chloroquine resistance to P.vivax has also emerged in the eastern provinces.\n\nThis trial sets out to assess two fixed dose artemisinin combination regimens: artekin (DHA-Piperaquine) and coartemether (artemether-lumefantrine) against both P.falciparum and P. vivax and their safety profiles.\n\nPatients who present to an established rural outpatient clinic in Timika, Papua with symptoms of acute, uncomplicated infection with P. falciparum, P.vivax or both species, will after laboratory confirmation of the diagnosis and having given informed consent to participate in the trial, be enrolled in the study. Drug administration will be supervised once per day. Patients will be treated as out-patients and then seen daily for the first week until aparasitaemic and thereafter at weekly visits to the clinic.\n\nThe data used from this trial will be used to make a public health decision to determine a suitable alternative first line antimalarial in the Timika region. In order to ensure that the data gathered will be relevant to the clinical setting in which the drugs will be used, drug administration of medication will be deliberately designed to mimic conditions that will be experienced with widespread deployment (eg once daily supervision).'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '12 Months', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Male and female patients at least one 1year of age and weighing more than 10kg.\n* Microscopic confirmation of P. falciparum and /or P.vivax infection (any parasitaemia).\n* Fever (axillary temperature \\>37.5C) or history of fever in the last 48 hours.\n* Able to participate in the trial and comply with the clinical trial protocol\n* Written informed consent to participate in trial; verbal consent in presence of literate witness is required for illiterate patients, and written consent from parents/guardian for children below age of consent\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Pregnancy or lactation\n* Inability to tolerate oral treatment\n* Signs/symptoms indicative of severe/complicated malaria or warning signs requiring parenteral treatment (See Appendix II)\n* Known hypersensitivity or allergy to artemisinin derivatives\n* Serious underlying disease (cardiac, renal or hepatic)\n* Parasitaemia \\>4%'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00157833', 'briefTitle': 'A Randomized Trial of Coartemether and Artekin for the Treatment of Uncomplicated Malaria in Papua, Indonesia.', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Menzies School of Health Research'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Randomized Trial to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Coartemether and Artekin for the Treatment of Acute Falciparum and Vivax Malaria in Timika, Papua', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'TIMIKA_FC'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'interventions': [{'name': 'Artekin / Coartemther', 'type': 'DRUG'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Timika', 'state': 'Special Region of Papua', 'country': 'Indonesia', 'facility': 'SP9 and SP12 Malaria-Public Health Clinics'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Ric N Price', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Menzies School of Health Research'}, {'name': 'Emiliana Tjitra', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'National Institute of Health Research and Development'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Menzies School of Health Research', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'National Institute of Health Research and Development, Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'National Health and Medical Research Council, Australia', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Wellcome Trust', 'class': 'OTHER'}]}}}
