Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Incidence of Severe Malaria Meeting Case Definition 1
From Year 0 to Year 3 (Starting January 2014 and ending December 2016)

Case definition 1 for severe malaria was defined as an episode of malaria with positive Plasmodium falciparum asexual parasitemia (within -1 to +3 days of admission) and with one or more marker of disease severity: Prostration, respiratory distress, Blantyre score equal to or less than (≤) 2, seizures 2 or more, hypoglycemia below (\<) 2.2 millimoles per liter (mmol/L), acidosis BE ≤ -10.0 mmol/L, lactate ≥ 5.0 mmol/L or anemia \< 5.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL). The incidence of severe malaria for case definition 1 is expressed as a person year rate for each group (n/T), representing the number of events (n) reported over the risk period, which was counted in days and expressed as person years at risk (T).

Incidence of Severe Malaria Meeting Case Definition 2.
From Year 0 to Year 3 (Starting January 2014 and ending December 2016)

Case definition 2 for severe malaria was defined as an episode of malaria with positive Plasmodium falciparum asexual parasitemia (within -1 to +3 days of admission) and with one or more marker of disease severity: Prostration, respiratory distress, Blantyre score equal to or less than (≤) 2, seizures 2 or more, hypoglycemia below (\<) 2.2 millimoles per liter (mmol/L), acidosis BE ≤ -10.0 mmol/L, lactate ≥ 5.0 mmol/L or anemia \< 5.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or SAE report including preferred terms (Malaria, Plasmodium falciparum infection or Cerebral malaria) within -1 to +3 days of admission. The incidence of severe malaria for case definition 2 is expressed as a person year rate for each group (n/T), representing the number of events (n) reported over the risk period, which was counted in days and expressed as person years at risk (T).

Rate of First or Only Clinical Episode of Plasmodium Falciparum (P. Falciparum) Malaria Infection (CPFMI), or Clinical Malaria Episode of Primary Case Definition (CPFMI-PCD)
From Month 2.5 to Month 14

A CPFMI-PCD was defined as an episode of malaria for which P. falciparum asexual parasitemia was greater than (\>) 5000 parasites per microliter (µL) accompanied by the presence of fever \[axillary temperature greater than or equal to (≥) 37.5°C\] at the time of presentation AND occurring in a child who is unwell and brought for treatment to a healthcare facility OR a case of malaria meeting the primary case definition of severe malaria disease. The time to first or only CPFMI-PCD is expressed in terms of rate of first or only CPFMI (RfoCPFMI), that is person-year rate in each group (n/T). Analysis for this outcome was solely performed on subjects in the 5-17 months age category.

Rate of First or Only Clinical Episode of P. Falciparum Malaria Infection (CPFMI), or Clinical Malaria Episode of Primary Case Definition (CPFMI-PCD)
From Month 2.5 to Month 14

A CPFMI-PCD was defined as an episode of malaria for which P. falciparum asexual parasitemia \> 5000 parasites/µL was accompanied by the presence of fever (axillary temperature ≥ 37.5°C) at the time of presentation AND occurring in a child who is unwell and brought for treatment to a healthcare facility OR a case of malaria meeting the primary case definition of severe malaria disease. The time to first or only CPFMI-PCD is expressed in terms of rate of first or only CPFMI (RfoCPFMI), that is, person-year rate in each group (n/T). Analysis for this outcome was solely performed on subjects in the 6-12 weeks (6-12W) age category.
