1 MDA + IRS IN UGANDA: modelling and practice ASTMH Symposium #141 IRS and Drug-Based Malaria Control: Interaction, Timing and Next Steps Dorothy Echodu October 31, 2018 New Orleans

2 MDA + IRS in Uganda: Modelling and Practice Outline Modeling MDA + IRS timing Study set-up & preliminary results Do the results make sense? 9/12/18 2

3 Openmalaria Modelling: IRS prolongs MDA impact for duration of insecticide efficacy 9/12/18 3 Elliott R, Smith D, Echodu, D. (2018) Mathematical Biosciences. Volume 300.

4 Prevalence reduction over time Ross-MacDonald Modelling: Synchronous timing is best, impact scales with R 0 Elliott R, Smith D, Echodu, D. (2018) Submitted. 9/12/18 Time before and after IRS campaign 4

5 Same effect in Openmalaria: Co-timing impact grows with transmission intensity 9/12/18 5 Elliott R, Smith D, Echodu D. (2018) Submitted.

6 Openmalaria Modelling: synergy or seasonality? 9/12/18 R. Elliott 6

7 Openmalaria Modelling: synchronous deployment more powerful than seasonality, at least for this annual EIR (100) 9/12/18 R. Elliott 7

8 Katakwi Rotary Malaria Project: IRS + MDA (Uganda) 9/12/18 8

9 PAGE TITLE GOES HERE PROJECT SUMMARY Description and study site Katakwi District Sequence of malaria control interventions in 3 subcounties (Phase 1) Kapujan: (IRS + MDA, 4 rounds Toroma: (IRS, 4 rounds) Magoro (std of care) LLINs in all three subcounties April 2017 Objectives Primary objective: Phase I: To evaluate the impact of population based IRS in combination with MDA as compared with no MDA on clinical and entomological malaria indicators. 9

10 PAGE TITLE GOES HERE PROJECT SUMMARY Interventions Phase I ( ): controlled before and after (CBA) pre/post, analyzed with difference in differences IRS in Kapujan and Toroma with pirimiphos-methyl, 4 rounds every 8 months. MDA for all eligible residents in Kapujan with DHA-P, 4 rounds every 8 months. Limitations: one cluster per arm non-randomized Evaluation Methods & Sample Size 1) Cross sectional community surveys: 200 households (~800 individuals) in each sub county assessed at baseline and then every 6 months for the first two years. 2) Entomology surveys: Mosquitoes from 30 households per arm per month using CDC light traps 3) Health facility surveillance 10

11 3 adjacent arms: mapped & enumerated 2x/yr IRS + MDA IRS Std of Care (LLINs) As of March 2018: Total households: 8,503 Total population: 50,178 MDA arm: 16,777 9/12/18 11

19 Overall RDT prevalence: 7 months post IRS + MDA IRS/MDA IRS/MDA Arm B: Arm C (S1 to S4) OR 2.31 [ ], p<.001 Arm A: Arm B (S1 to S4) not significant 9/12/18 K. Colborn 19

20 What about mobility? Openmalaria modelling: MDA + IRS, with imported infections, realistic EIR Imported infections appear to help.but R. Elliott 9/12/18 20

21 Openmalaria modelling: IRS only, with imported infections, realistic EIR Imported infections degrade MDA impact, but mainly by degrading IRS. Not the whole answer! R. Elliott 9/12/18 21

22 Summary Two models predict strong timing-dependent synergy Preliminary results show protection at 3 months, possibly also at 7 months not as dramatic as predicted Mobility might explain lackluster MDA, but not while IRS is so effective 9/12/18 22
