The prophylactic efficacy of WR 238605, a primaquine analog, was studied with a human Plasmodium falciparum challenge model. A single oral dose of 600 mg, administered 1 day prior to challenge, successfully protected three of four subjects. The fourth subject developed mild, oligosymptomatic malaria on day 31, with drug concentrations one-half of those in the protected individuals. WR 238605 appears to be a promising prophylactic drug for P. falciparum malaria.
用人类恶性疟原虫攻击模型研究了伯氨喹类似物WR 238605的预防效果。在攻击前1天口服600 mg单剂量药物,成功保护了4名受试者中的3名。第四名受试者在第31天出现轻度、症状较少的疟疾,其药物浓度为受保护个体的一半。WR 238605似乎是一种有前景的恶性疟原虫疟疾预防药物。
