12 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Plasmodium falciparum multidrug resistance transporter 1 (Pfmdr1) gene mutations are associated with altered response to artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT), particularly the combinations containing the partner drugs lumefantrine and amodiaquine (i.e., artemether-lumefantrine [AL] and artesunate-amodiaquine [ASAQ]). Past studies of Pfmdr1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at codons 86,...
