 Evaluation of the protective efficacy of a spatial repellent to reduce malaria prevalence in Uganda: Study protocol for a cluster-randomized double-blinded control trial: The Mossie-GO trial
REFNo: HS4196ES

The study’s primary objective is to demonstrate and quantify the protective efficacy (PE) of Mossie-GO, an active spatial repellent system disseminating transfluthrin, in reducing the prevalence of malaria infection in children ≤ 5 years of age.

The study’s secondary objective is to measure the impact of the intervention on entomological correlates of transmission including vector densities and host seeking behaviour. Insecticide resistance in the local mosquito population will also be explored.
