Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Cohort 1

10 subjects with Plasmodium vivax malaria will receive 30 mg KAE609 once a day for three days

Drug: KAE609
KAE609 was supplied as capsules for oral use.

Experimental: Cohort 2

Drug: KAE609
KAE609 was supplied as capsules for oral use.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Parasite clearance time [From baseline to the time point when the blood parasite count is zero(up to a maximum of 5 days)]

    Calculated based on parasite count in blood. In thin film, use actual WBCs/µl, of blood to calculate parasite density by using the following formula: parasites/µl= #parasites× actual WBC/#WBCs counted. In thick film, assume that there are 250 RBCs per HPF, RBC count from 8 HPF equal 2000 RBC, Use actual RBCs/µl blood to calculate parasite density by using the following formula: parasites/µl= # of parasites in 8HPF/2000)× actual RBC.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of participants with adverse events [vital signs: Days 1 through 6; ECG: Days1, 2, 3; Labs: Days 2, 3, 5, study completion]

    Number of participants with adverse events determined by Vital sign(body temperature, blood pressure and pulse rate): pre dose, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 hours post dose on Day 1: then 6, 12, 18, 24 hours post dose on each day during domiciles period until at least two consecutive normal temperature readings are obtained, then it will measure daily until Day 6. ECG: 3-4 hours post dose on day1; pre dose, 3-4 hours post dose on Day 2; pre dose, 3-4 hours post dose on Day 3 and study completion. Lab evaluation: Day 2, Day3 and Day5, study completion.

  2. Area under the curve (AUC)0-24h on Day 1 and Day 3 [Day 1 and Day 3]

    The parent drug in plasma samples will be analyzed. On Day 1: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours post dose. *The 24h sampling of first post dose should be taken before the second dose. On Day 3: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours post dose

  3. The accumulation ratio (Racc) (=AUC0-24h, day3/AUC0-24h, day1) [Day 1 and Day 3]

    The parent drug in plasma samples will be analyzed. On Day 1: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours post dose. *The 24h sampling of first post dose should be taken before the second dose. On Day 3: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours post dose

  4. Maximum concentration (Cmax) on Day 1 and Day 3 [Day 1 and Day 3]

    The parent drug in plasma samples will be analyzed. On Day 1: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours post dose. *The 24h sampling of first post dose should be taken before the second dose. On Day 3: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours post dose

  5. Time to maximum concentration (Tmax) on Day 1 and Day 3 [Day 1 and Day 3]

    The parent drug in plasma samples will be analyzed. On Day 1: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours post dose. *The 24h sampling of first post dose should be taken before the second dose. On Day 3: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours post dose

  6. Half-life (T1/2) [Day 3]

    The parent drug in plasma samples will be analyzed On Day 3: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours post dose

  7. Clearance (CL/F ) [Day 3]

    The parent drug in plasma samples will be analyzed On Day 3: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours post dose

  8. The apparent volume of distribution during the terminal elimination phase following extravascular administration (Vz/F) [Day 3]

    The parent drug in plasma samples will be analyzed. On Day 3: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, and 192 hours post dose
