Evaluation of Drug and Vaccine Candidates in the Human Malaria/Aotus Monkey Model
Abstract
This report presents data: On the evaluation of antimalarial drugs. Experimental drugs GJ-287 (WR282650; BP20546) and GJ-QZ (WR282651; BP20537) were non toxic when given to Aotus orally at 20 mg/kg for three consecutive days and only transient changes on blood leukograms and liver enzyme ALT were detected. These drugs were not effective alone or in combination with Chloroquine when Aotus monkeys infected with Plasm odium falciparum FVO strain were treated for three consecutive days. Significant differences on Lymphocytes and Granulocytes counts were found between male and female Aotus when hematological and renal chemistry values of feral laboratory adapted Aotus monkeys were determined.
