            • Ghana submit by 1 Feb in advance of 7 Feb 2024 deadline (5 March as backup)
              • RDD will notify of supporting documents needed for the IRB
        • Training - R&D/ISGlobal
          • Good Clinical Practice (can be GFDA or from different organization as long as not expired)
        • Reference lab
          • Samples should be run on site (Kato Katz in the schools) and others in-country (ELISA dried blood spots for Strongyloides), with a lab in Accra still to be identified.
        • Communication & Social mobilization - NTD Programme/RDD/Health Promotion/Mundo Sano
          • Frame messaging on why doing clinical trial as based on Trichuris burden evidence for clinical trial most clear as albendazole is less effective and we have decent burden data; Reinforce messaging that will be a clinical trial, building on and using MDA architecture as much as possible
          • GHS to review external communications plan Tuesday 19th
          • All/Mundo Sano facilitate
            • Circulate and review materials from past MDA and/or relevant trials from communications/social mobilization (GHS has already circulated)
            • Align on targeted changes for Ghana and for Kenya (meeting with Kenya scheduled for December 19th with the Comms team)
            • Consdiera how to reflect non-STH diseases also addressed by the FDC (e.g. Onchocercosis, Limphatic Filariasis, Scabies). This was consulted with the Comms team an we are not sure it is a good idea. Perhaps we can think about doing posters and material to be left to the sites after the project, but not during the study
