Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Protocols for the community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) have not changed significantly for more than 20 years, with relatively complex treatment protocols and persistent supply chain challenges that have limited overall program coverage, leaving millions of malnourished children without care annually. The overarching goal of this research project is to simultaneously test two novel simplified approaches in CMAM with potential to improve program coverage. The simplified approach includes two parallel clinical trials for SAM and MAM treatment. Two fixed-dose regimes of RUTF will be tested against the current weight-based dosing of RUTF for children with SAM.
