Официальное название

A Double-blind Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Oral Tafenoquine Plus Standard of Care Versus Placebo Plus Standard of Care in Patients Hospitalized for Babesiosis

Обзор

This study is a double-blind, randomized, multisite, placebo-controlled trial comparing the safety and efficacy of TQ versus placebo in patients hospitalized for babesiosis with low risk for relapsing disease who will also be administered a standard-of-care antimicrobial regimen (A/A) that is recommended in the 2020 IDSA guideline on the diagnosis and management of babesiosis.

Подробное описание

This study is a double-blind, randomized, multisite, placebo-controlled trial comparing the safety and efficacy of TQ versus placebo in patients hospitalized for babesiosis with low risk for relapsing disease who will also be administered a standard-of-care antimicrobial regimen (A/A) that is recommended in the 2020 IDSA guideline on the diagnosis and management of babesiosis.

Patients hospitalized for a diagnosis of babesiosis, who have received A/A for \<48 hours (h) prior to randomization or are about to receive A/A, will be asked to provide written informed consent and will undergo eligibility screening including medical history, physical examination, prior and concomitant medications, blood chemistry and hematology, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency testing, blood smear for diagnostic confirmation of babesiosis, pregnancy testing for females of child-bearing potential, and assessment of risk factors for relapsing babesiosis. The screening period will last a maximum of two days. The first day of dosing with TQ or placebo will be Day 1 and will be done while the patient is still hospitalized.
