ACT-451840 is an orally active, potent and low-toxicity compound, showing activity against sensitive and resistant plasmodium falciparum strains. ACT-451840 targets all asexual blood stages of the parasite, has a rapid onset of action. ACT-451840 behaves in a way similar to artemisinin derivatives, with very rapid onset of action and elimination of parasite. ACT-451840 can be used for the research of malarial[1][2][3].
ACT-451840 shows a 50 % inhibition concentration of 0.4 nM against the drug-sensitive P. falciparum NF54 strain. The IC50 value of ACT-451840 against the murine malaria parasite P. berghei is 13.5 nM in in vitro ex vivo assays.
ACT-451840 (10 and 60 mg kg) starts to show significant antimalarial effects (parasite reduction) in vivo at 20 mg/kg. ACT-451840 exhibits curative activity at 300 mg/kg and significant antimalarial effects already at 100 mg/kg. ACT-451840 shows excellent reduction at 30 mg/kg, resulting in 99.80 % activity[2]. ACT-451840 shows efficacy in the Plasmodium berghei mouse model[2].
