At STOP2030 we want to provide a pharmacological tool that helps at delivering WHO's goals for soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH). That is why we're happy to announce that the REALISE study (Real world Evaluation of an ALbendazol-Ivermectin coformulation Safety and Effectiveness), our most ambitious clinical trial, has been approved for publication in clinicaltrials.gov and the Pan African Clinical Trial Registry.
This clinical trial is a Cohort Event Study aimed at evaluating the safety and effectiveness of our fixed-dose coformulation of albendazol and ivermectin within large populations, matched against the standard dose albendazole currently in use against STH. We expect to recruit around 20 thousand school-aged children between 5 and 14 years old in Kenya and Ghana.
This clinical trial is a Cohort Event Study aimed at evaluating the safety and effectiveness of our fixed-dose coformulation (FDC) of albendazol and ivermectin within large populations, matched against the standard dose albendazole currently in use against STH. We expect to recruit around 20 thousand school-aged children between 5 and 14 years old in Kenya and Ghana.
The general objectives of the REALISE study are to validate the benefits of the FDC through this pragmatic trial in a context of mass drug administration (MDA) programme to evaluate the safety as a primary endpoint and effectiveness profile as a secondary endpoint, in a large population of school-aged children.
