Tafenoquine 150 mg
DrugTablet contains TQ as tafenoquine succinate. The 2 tablets (2 tablets of 150mg) of dark pink, capsule-shaped, film coated will be administered orally with 240ml of water.
NCT Number: NCT02658435
The study aims to provide evidence of retinal safety to support the use of tafenoquine as a potential single dose radical cure treatment for patients with Plasmodium vivax (P. vivax) malaria (i.e., co-administration of a schizonticidal drug with TQ). The study will be conducted as a single masked, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group design. It will assess retinal changes from baseline using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus auto fluorescence (FAF) at Month 3 (90 days) post-dose in adult healthy volunteers (participants). A placebo control group will be used to compare the results in the TQ group. Interim analysis will be conducted after completing 100 out of 300 participants in TQ group and 50 out of 150 participants in matched placebo.

Inclusion criteria
Non-reproductive potential defined as Pre-menopausal females with one of the following: Documented tubal ligation or Documented hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure with follow-up confirmation of bilateral tubal occlusion or Hysterectomy or Documented Bilateral Oophorectomy or Postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol levels consistent with menopause (refer to site specific laboratory reference ranges for confirmatory levels). Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the highly effective contraception methods if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrolment.
Reproductive potential and agrees to follow one of the options listed in the Modified List of Highly Effective Methods for Avoiding Pregnancy in Females of Reproductive Potential (FRP) from screening until completion of the Day 90 follow-up visit.
Exclusion criteria
Tablet contains TQ as tafenoquine succinate. The 2 tablets (2 tablets of 150mg) of dark pink, capsule-shaped, film coated will be administered orally with 240ml of water.
It is the matched Placebo tablet. The 2 tablets (2 tablets of 150mg) of dark pink, capsule-shaped, film coated will be administered orally with 240ml of water.
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
The change from baseline will be assessed as a binomial output as, Yes or No. Spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) images/scan will be obtained. For Central subfield thickness and Central retinal lesion thickness, change from baseline of at least 40 microns (µ) will be consider 'Yes'. Central Retinal Lesion Thickness is defined as the distance between the inner limiting membrane of the retina and the inner border of the choriocapillaris measured in the central 1millimeter (mm) of the centre scan
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
The change from baseline will be assessed as a binomial output as, Yes or No. SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Total Macular Volume, change from baseline of 10% will be considered 'Yes'
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
The change from baseline will be assessed as a binomial output as, Yes or No. SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Ellipsoid zone disruption will be assessed by manual reading
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
The change from baseline will be assessed as a binomial output as, Yes or No. SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Abnormal auto-fluorescence will be assessed by FAF by manual reading
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Central retinal thickness is the thickness at the centre point of the macula
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Central subfield thickness measures thickness from top of Internal limiting membrane (ILM) to bottom of Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Central retinal lesion thickness measures a greatest linear thickness from ILM to inner border of choriocapillaris
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Total macular volume describes the overall thickness of retina from top of ILM to bottom of RPE as a volume measurement.
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained. Ellipsoid zone disruption will measure zones of absent or irregular ellipsoid layer.
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
SD-OCT images/scan will be obtained.
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
FAF images will be obtained. Qualitative assessment will be done to check for any abnormal patterns of auto-fluorescence in the macular region that may be indicative of disease of the retinal pigment epithelium.
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
BCVA will be measured by a trained examiner
Time frame: Baseline and Day 90(follow-up)
Vortex keratopathy (corneal deposits) will be confirmed by slit lamp examination. Anterior and posterior segment evaluation will be done.
Time frame: 90 days
