Table 1 ASAQ Winthrop Risk Management Plan: issues to be documented

From: Innovative public-private partnerships to maximize the delivery of anti-malarial medicines: lessons learned from the ASAQ Winthrop experience

1.

Identified risks: to be minimized with specific information

 

   • Intake during first trimester of pregnancy

 

   • Allergy

2.

Potential risks: to be quantified in large-scale studies

 

   • Hepatotoxicity

 

   • Neutropenia/agranulocytosis

 

   • Somnolence

 

   • Audiometric dysfunction

 

   • Extra-pyramidal symptoms

 

   • Decreased efficacy (parasite resistance)

3.

Missing information: to be documented in new studies

 

   • Safety of repeated administrations

 

   • Specific populations (HIV/AIDS patients...)

 

   • Second and third trimester of pregnancy

 

   • Safety profile in non parasitaemic patients

 

   • Drug interactions & Interactions with traditional drugs and remedies

 

   • Efficacy in species other than P. falciparum
