Haematological consequences of acute uncomplicated falciparum malaria: a WorldWide Antimalarial Resistance Network pooled analysis of individual patient data

open access: yes, 2022
Background Plasmodium falciparum malaria is associated with anaemia-related morbidity, attributable to host, parasite and drug factors. We quantified the haematological response following treatment of uncomplicated P.

From anthelmintic to neuro‐oncology: A systematic review of mebendazole repurposing for brain tumour therapy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mebendazole (MBZ), a benzimidazole anthelmintic with established clinical use, has emerged as a repurposing candidate for primary brain tumours due to its multimodal anticancer actions and central nervous system penetrance. This systematic review synthesizes preclinical and clinical evidence evaluating MBZ's efficacy, mechanisms of action ...

An Update on Development of Small-Molecule Plasmodial Kinase Inhibitors

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Malaria control relies heavily on the small number of existing antimalarial drugs. However, recurring antimalarial drug resistance necessitates the continual generation of new antimalarial drugs with novel modes of action.

Pharmacometric evaluation of pre‐referral rectal artesunate in children with severe malaria

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Parenteral artesunate is the preferred first‐line treatment for severe malaria. Pre‐referral rectal artesunate suppositories are recommended where parenteral treatment is inaccessible. In this study, we compared dihydroartemisinin exposure and model‐predicted early parasite clearance following rectal artesunate and intravenous artesunate in ...

Antimalarial drug resistence and artemisinin based combination therapy : a bio-economic model for elucidating policy choices [PDF]

open access: yes
Antimalarial drug resistance is a major cause of the increasing burden due to P. falciparum malaria. Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) are now recognised to be the ideal choice for the first-line treatment of ...

A broad analysis of resistance development in the malaria parasite

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
It is unclear whether new antimalarial compounds may rapidly lose effectiveness in the field because of parasite resistance. Here, Corey et al.investigate the acquisition of drug resistance and the extent to which common resistance mechanisms decrease ...

Modelling the impact of antimalarial quality on the transmission of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine resistance in Plasmodium falciparum

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling, 2017
Background: The use of poor quality antimalarial medicines, including the use of non-recommended medicines for treatment such as sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) monotherapy, undermines malaria control and elimination efforts.
