Background on Malaria and Combination Anti-Malarial Drug Therapy FDA Workshop: Clinical Trial Design Considerations for Malaria Drug Development 30 June 2016 Prof. Arjen M.

Spread of resistance: chloroquine & pyrimethamine 1980 1980 1960 1959 1957 1970 1997 1982 1978 Dondorp et al Adapted from Chris Plowe Nat Rev Microbiol. 2010 Options with failing ACTs using existing drugs 1st. Triple therapies (TACT): DHA-PQP-MQ; AM-LUM-AQ: TRAC II 2nd. Arterolane-piperaquine: TRAC II 3rd. 5-day regimen of DHA-PQP or AM-LUM Needs trialing & reassurance of safety concerns (QTc-prolongation); new problem: PQP resistance. 4th. Drug rotation of DHA-PQP and MAS3, guided by prevalence of PfMDR1 copy-number 5th. Sequential use of two different ACTs (e.g. DHA-PQP and MAS3) 6th. Artesunate-pyronaridine efficacy<90%; cross resistance with PQP?? TACT: DHA-piperaquine + mefloquine No interaction Possible counter-acting Reasonably matching re QTc time resistance mechanisms PK-profiles Price et al. Lancet 2004 TACT: Artemether-lumefantrine + amodiaquine Artemether-Lumefantrine Treatment Artesunate-amodiaquine failure Counter-acting resistance mechanisms PfMDR1 N86Y Reasonably matching PK-profiles PfMDR1 D1246Y Venkatesan et al. Am J Trop Med Hyg 2014 Conclusions: Combination therapy • Fast acting drug (artemisinin) confers survival advantage • Partner drug with longer half life permits construction of 3 day regimen • Combination increases genetic barrier to resistance • Significantly increases complexity in terms of drug development Conclusions II: resistance • Artemisinin resistance now with us: -Expanding in SE Asia; not yet in Africa -Contributes to treatment failure -Selects for partner drug resistance -Might increase transmissibility • Partner drug resistance: -Increasing problem in SE Asia (Greater Mekong Subregion) • Few options left in GMS: -Triple combination therapies • New antimalarials urgently needed! -Choice of partner drug no longer trivial… Global Portfolio of Antimalarials Research Translational Product development Access Lead Human Patient Patient Regulatory Preclinical Post approval optimization volunteers exploratory confirmatory review Artemether- DHODH 1 project P218 MMV048 OZ439/FQ Tafenoquine Rectal Artesunate * UTSW/UW/Monash UCT/TIA GSK Cipla/Strides/WHO-TDR lumefantrine Novartis (Biotec) Sanofi Dispersible 1 Novartis Open Source Drug 2 projects DDD498 ACT-451840 KAE609 Dihydroartemisinin - Arterolane/ Artesunate GSK Actelion Discovery Merck Serono Novartis piperaquine Piperaquine for injection Univ.
