Pharmacokinetic study
Phase 1b clinical trial using Argemone
 mexicana in healthy adults infected or not
 infected with Plasmodium falciparum in
 Mali: pharmacokinetics and observational
 study.

Experimental procedure: open clinical trial
 phase 1b
Pharmacokinetic study
General Objective
 The main objective is to study the
 pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and
 tolerability of the decoction of the aerial
 parts of Argemone mexicana (AM),
 administered in healthy volunteers tested
 according to the traditional in a comparative
 clinical study conducted in 2006 by DMT
Pharmacokinetic study
Specific objectives
 • determine the terminal half-life of active
 compounds in the blood product
 • determine the kinetics of active compounds
 produced in the blood and urine
 • determine the AUC (Area Under the Curve),
 clearance and distribution volume of the active
 compounds in the blood product
 • to benchmark (between the volunteers,
 between plasma concentration and the
 concentration in erythrocytes) with the use of
 AM
Pharmacokinetic study
Specific objectives
 • Identify adverse events associated with the
 use of AM
 • determine the parasite clearance time and
 parasite density (when it occurs) associated
 with the use of argemone
 • determine the parasitological failure rates
 associated with the taking of argemone
 • determine the rate of reinfection or
 recrudescence of parasites associated with
 the use of AM .
Pharmacokinetic study
• Methodology
• Healthy adult volunteers with / without
  asymptomatic malaria
• Samples of blood at different time intervals
  after ingestion of A. mexicana decoction
• Analysis of blood
