Cipargamin is an experimental synthetic antimalarial molecule belonging to the spiroindolone class. It possesses both the potency (average IC50 of 550 pM against asexual blood-stage P. falciparum) and favorable pharmacokinetics (elimination half-life of ~24 hours in humans) needed for a single-dose cure, a feature that could help slow the onset of parasite resistance and that is not shared by existing, approved antimalarial drugs. KAE609 is also unique in its ability to block transmission to mosquitoes. Cipargamin is a parasite P-type ATPase4 inhibitor. Cipargamin in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of acute, uncomplicated malaria due to plasmodium falciparum monoinfection. Nausea was the most common reported adverse effect. The adverse events were generally mild and did not lead to any discontinuations of the drug.
