About this study
This project will provide new insights concerning how to reduce dengue transmission by means of cost-effective and sustainable implementation strategies of vector control methods.
The research will assess key strategies which deliver new vector control tools with respect to their cost-effectiveness, acceptability and sustainability in contrasting environments.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Insecticide treated curtains and insecticide treated coversOther
The study is comparing the introduction of two new vector control tools (insecticide treated curtains and insecticide treated covers) through two different distribution strategies. These tools are curently not in use in the routine programmes of the concerned countries.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| VM | Experimental | implementation of new vector control tools (insecticide treated curtains and jar covers) through the existing routine vector control programme Receives: Other: Insecticide treated curtains and insecticide treated covers |
| PM | Experimental | implementation of new vector control tools (insecticide treated covers and curtains) through partnerships Receives: Other: Insecticide treated curtains and insecticide treated covers |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Aedes aegypti entomological indices
Measured: every 6 months
Secondary outcomes (1)
uptake and acceptance of tools
Measured: 6 and 18 months after distribution

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Insecticide treated curtains and insecticide treated covers in people with DENGUE, run by Institute of Tropical Medicine, Belgium at 2 sites in 2 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in Thailand, Venezuela. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Aedes aegypti entomological indices (time frame: every 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jan 2013.
