| Scientific title | Can indoor residual spraying provide additional protection against clinical malaria over current best practice of long-lasting insecticide impregnated nets? A cluster-randomised controlled trial in children in The Gambia |
| Study acronym | SANTE |
| Study objectives | To evaluate whether there is any benefit against malaria from using indoor residual spraying and long-lasting impregnated nets (LLINs) combined compared to LLINs alone. |
| Ethics approval(s) | 1. Gambia Government/MRC Laboratories Joint Ethics Committee first approved on the 12th August 2008 (ref: L2009.15, L2010.19; SCC1128) 2. LSHTM Ethics Committee approved on the 16th September 2009 (ref: 5592) |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Malaria morbidity and infection |
| Intervention | 1. DDT indoor residual spraying: with rooms sprayed with DDT (2 g/m2), in May/June, at the start of the main malaria transmission season, in 2010 and 2011. 2. Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs): Olyset, permethrin, 2% w/w on polyethylene netting, Sumitomo Chemicals. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure | Incidence of clinical episodes of malaria presenting at health facilities defined as a child with an axillary temperature of greater than or equal to 37.5°C or a history of fever in the past 48 hours, together with the presence of P. falciparum parasites of any density detected by microscopy and/or RDT in the absence of other detectable cause of fever. |
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. Mean haemoglobin concentration in children in the two study arms measured in the end of the transmission season survey 2. Parasite prevalence in children in the two study arms measured at the end of the transmission season |
| Overall study start date | 01/03/2010 |
| Completion date | 30/04/2012 |
