Malaria and epidemic situations
![Page 4: Overview of current application of artemisinin derivatives for malaria control · 2010-04-07 · Overview of current application of artemisinin derivatives for malaria control Tang](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041123/5d2abcbb88c993c66c8cd837/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Malaria Malaria continues to be a major threat in the developing world, with > 1 million clinical episodes and 3000 deaths every day. Currently approximately 40% of the world population resides in areas of active malaria transmission. A total of 90% of the disease-associated mortality occurs inSub-Saharan Africa.

Antimalarial drug resistance
Chloroquine resistance in P. falciparumfirst emerged in the 1950s and 1960s at the Thailand-Cambodia border, as well as in South America; in the 1980s, it began to spread in Africa. Now has been reported from almost all malaria endemic countries of Africa.

Mefloquine resistance is present in Asia;Sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine the back-up to chloroqune in Africa has become progressively less effective worldwide.

Antimalarial therapy
For falciparum malaria, previously recommended monotherapies, such as chloroquine, sulfaadoxine -pyrimethamine, and amodiaquine, has been replaced by combination antimalarial therapy.

WHO policy on ACTs
The WHO recommends that all combinations include an artemisinin derivative.The only exception is amodiaquine + sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine in settings where artemisinin combination therapies (ACTs) are not yet available.

Application of artemisinin derivatives for treatment and control malaria
Uncomplicated falciparum malariaArtemisinin-based combination as first-line treatment for falciparum malaria in Southeast Asia for more than 10 years.Artemether-lumefantrine (six doses) has been shown to be very effective in large trials reported from Uganda and Tanzania.
![Page 21: Overview of current application of artemisinin derivatives for malaria control · 2010-04-07 · Overview of current application of artemisinin derivatives for malaria control Tang](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041123/5d2abcbb88c993c66c8cd837/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Application of artemisinin derivatives for treatment and control malaria
A once daily three-dose treatment of dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine, was a highly efficacious treatment for severe malaria and multi-drug resistant falciparum malaria in Southeast Asia. The combination of an oral artemisinin derivative (usually artesunate) and mefloquine has become standard treatment in several parts of Southeast Asia.

Severe malaria
A large multicentre randomised trial conducted in East Asia has shown a 35% reduction in mortality from severe malaria following treatment with parenteral artesunate compared with quinine. There is increasing evidence that artemisinin-based combination treatments are safe and rapidly effective.

Effect of against gametocytes
Artemisinins are some of the most potent transmission blocking drugs. The studies observed the effect of artesunate (ATS) on the infectivity of Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes (PFG), showed oral administration of artesunate with a total dosage of 1000mg in 6 days inhibits the infectively of PFG.

Mass treatmentMalaria pilot study in central and west-highland, Viet Nam (CV8).Malaria elimination project in Kampong Speu in Cambodia (Artemisinin-piperaquine + PMQ).Malaria control in Moheli Island, Comoro population about 40000 (Artequick+ Primaquine)Mass treatment: 1st day Artequick (2 tablets) + primaquine (1 tablet); 2nd day Artequick (2 tablets).Primaquine: 9 mg for adult (reduce the dosage for children), one per ten day, continue in 6 month.

Other Anti-parasite activityWu, T. et al. The study showed that Artemisinin-type compounds are effective for preventing Schistosomiasisjaponica infection.Xiao SH, et al studied found that high worm reduction of 74.4%-97.9% was also observed when administering a low dose of artesunate or artemether (30mg/kg) against C.sinensis.Single dose of artemether and artesunate is efficacious against Opisthorchis viverrini、Fasciola hepatica and Echinostoma caproni.Nagamune, K.et al studied showed that artemisinin induces calcium-dependent protein secretion in the Toxoplasma gondii.

Antifungal and Antitumor activity
Antifungal activityGalal, A.et al report Antifungal activity of artemisinin derivatives.AntitumorJung, M. et al review recent advances in artemisinin and its derivatives as antitumor agents. Artemisinin and many of its analog possess also immuno-modulation effects, and antitumor activities. Jiao, Y. et al report Dihydroartemisinin is an inhibitor of ovarian cancer cell growth.

Tolerance or resistance?Palin, western Cambodia, in Thai-Cambodian border Since 2003, has exhibit uniformly prolonged clearance times after treatment with either artesunate plus mefloquine for 3 days or artesunate for 7 days and decreased efficacy of the regimen against Plasmodium falciparum.Thailand and Cambodia, the currently recommended first-line treatment for P.falciaprum malaria is artesunate plus mefloquine for 3 days, In Cambodia, however, use of artemisinin monotherapy is rife.

In China and Viet Nam, where artemisinin dervatives have a long history of use. There is evidence of decreasing in vitro susceptibility but no evidence to show in vivoresistance.

Global requirement and challenge
Widerspread use of ACTs will require further study on the safety of ACT use in early pregnancy and in children who receive repeated courses. Another great challenge is affordability. The high cost of ACTs makes them unavailable to most patients and creates challenges for countries that need to sustain control and elimination. One proposed financing mechanism would make ACTs available for less than US$1 to buyers in all sectors, public or private.

Improved control resistance to chloroquine and eventual elimination of P. vivax still require new drugs.
