Sponsor's own description

In areas of the Sahel sub-region of Africa with intense seasonal malaria transmission, seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and amodiaquine (SP+AQ) has become the standard-of-care for the prevention of malaria in children. Despite the scale-up of SMC across West Africa, the malaria burden remains high. Reasons for this are not well understood, however, it is hypothesized that children eligible for SMC who get malaria may be underdosed or may have not received SP+AQ. Moreover, there are major concerns that the continued use of the SMC strategy may increase selection of AQ and/or SP-resistant Plasmodium falciparum parasites. The overall objective of this observational study are to understand the factors driving malaria among children eligible to receive SMC and whether circulating levels of sulfadoxine (SDX), pyrimethamine (PYR), and AQ are associated with risks of malaria and antimalarial drug resistance.
