PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 14-21 days post treatment

Population: Modified intention-to-treat (mITT) analysis set included all participants who had a baseline measurement for the efficacy variable and did not use anti-malaria treatment after study treatment.

Clinical cure was defined as zero egg counts at 14-21 days post treatment as determined by the Kato-Katz method. Number of participants with clinical cure were reported.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 14-21 days post treatment

Population: mITT analysis set included all participants who had a baseline measurement for the efficacy variable and did not use anti-malaria treatment after study treatment.

Percent reduction in egg count was calculated as geometric mean egg count at post-treatment minus geometric mean egg count at baseline (before treatment) divided by geometric mean egg count at baseline.
