Quinolone-3-Diarylethers: A New Class of Antimalarial Drug

TL;DR: ELQ-300, a 4(1H)-quinolone-3-diarylether, which targets the liver and blood stages, including the forms that are crucial to disease transmission (gametocytes, zygotes, and ookinetes), has potential as a new drug for the treatment, prevention, and, ultimately, eradication of human malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI

(+)-SJ733, a clinical candidate for malaria that acts through ATP4 to induce rapid host-mediated clearance of Plasmodium

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that targeting ATP4 has great potential to deliver useful drugs for malaria eradication and suggest that inhibitors of PfATP4 have highly attractive features for fast-acting antimalarials to be used in the global eradication campaign.

Tanya Paquet, +60 more
TL;DR: The ability of MMV390048 to block all life cycle stages of the malaria parasite suggests that this compound should be further developed and may contribute to malaria control and eradication as part of a single-dose combination treatment.
