What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Subjects With Plasmodium Falciparum (P. Falciparum) Parasitaemia (PFP), for Each Survey

    The Overall parasite prevalence (PP) data were collected across centers from subjects aged between and including: 6 months to 4 Years (6M-4Y), 5 to 19 Years (5-19 Y) and 20 Years or older (20Y+), for each Survey. The number of subjects P. Falciparum parasitemia infected among the number of subjects with known result for P.falciparum parasitemia test was tabulated.

    Measured: At each Survey visit

Secondary outcomes (52)
  1. Number of Subjects With Plasmodium Falciparum (P. Falciparum) Parasitaemia (PFP), According to Annual Age for Children of 4 Years or Less, for Each Survey

    The overall parasite prevalence (PP) data were collected across centers from subjects aged 4 years or less, for each Survey. The number of subjects P. Falciparum parasitemia infected among the number of subjects with known result for P.falciparum parasitemia test was tabulated.

    Measured: At each Survey visit

  2. Number of Subjects With Anemia and Severe Anemia for Each Survey

    The overall anemia and severe anemia data were collected across centers from subjects, aged between and including: 6M-4Y, 5-19 Y and 20Y+, for each survey. Hemoglobin (Hgb) cut-offs used to define anemia and severe anemia in people living at sea level are: Anemia: children 6M to 5Y, Hgb lower than (<) 11 gram per deciliter (g/dL); children 5-11Y, Hgb <11.5 g/dL; children 12-13Y, Hgb <12 g/dL; non-pregnant females, Hgb <12 g/dL; pregnant females, Hgb <11 g/dL; males, Hgb <13 g/dL. Severe anemia: any age or gender, Hgb <7 g/dL. Missing/ Not applicable (NA) = if age or pregnancy status was not available. Among each age category, results for both sub-categories "Yes" (subjects with anemia) and "Missing/NA" are presented below, results for the category "No" can be deduced from the number of participants analyzed in the corresponding age category, minus (number of "Yes" + number of "Missing/NA"). Similar presentation is followed for "severe anemia" results.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood sampling and Assessment of body temperature in people with Malaria and Malaria Vaccines, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 8 sites in 6 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 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Ghana, Tanzania, Burkina Faso, Gabon, Kenya and 1 more country. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Aug 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Subjects With Plasmodium Falciparum (P. Falciparum) Parasitaemia (PFP), for Each Survey (time frame: At each Survey visit). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01190202, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 Aug 2020.
