A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Effect of Tafenoquine (SB252263) on the Electrocardiogram (ECG) With Focus on Cardiac Repolarization (QTc Duration) in Healthy Subjects
Abstract
This will be a randomized, single-blind, placebo controlled, parallel group study. Approximately 260 subjects will be enrolled in five groups. This study is designed to compare the effects of tafenoquine, administered as single dose as well as administered over three consecutive days, on the changes in QT duration to those observed in subjects dosed with either moxifloxacin or placebo.
Conditions: Malaria, Vivax.
Primary outcome: Change from baseline in QTcF for 1200 mg dose of tafenoquine compared to baseline.
Enrollment: 260 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 260 participants or records.
