Summary

FLAME is an open-label cluster-randomized controlled trial that aims to determine the effectiveness of focal mass drug administration (fMDA) to reduce the incidence of Plasmodium vivax malaria in the Loreto Department in Peru. Standard interventions, including symptomatic and asymptomatic screening for malaria infections, provision of insecticide-treated bednets, and environmental transmission monitoring, will be compared to clusters of villages randomized to receive anti-malarial drugs.

Focal Mass Drug Administration (fMDA)

Administration of focal mass drug administration for high-risk individuals residing in households that are within 200 meters of a Plasmodium vivax index case households from the prior 2 years (including individuals in the index case household). Intervention to be administered two times, two months apart each cycle, for 3 cycles spaced apart by regular intervals. Each year will include 2 rounds of fMDA. Round 1) Chloroquine (CQ)+ Tafenoquine (TQ) for \>= 16y (CQ: Day1 600 mg, Day 2 600 mg, Day 3 300 mg CQ, TQ 300 mg on Day 1); CQ+ Primaquine (PQ) for \<16y (CQ: age-based dosing, PQ age-based dosing); CQ+PQ for G6PD intermediate individuals \>=6mo and \<16y ((CQ: Day1 600 mg, Day 2 600 mg, Day 3 300 mg, PQ age-based dosing). Round 2) single dose CQ+TQ for \>= 16y (CQ: Day1 600 mg, TQ 300 mg on Day 1); single dose CQ+PQ for \<16y (CQ: age-based dosing, PQ age-based dosing); single dose CQ+PQ for G6PD intermediate individuals \>=6mo and \<16y ((CQ: Day1 600 mg, PQ age-based dosing).
