The general objectives are to validate the benefits of FDC through this pragmatic trial in a context of mass drug administration (MDA) programme to evaluate the safety as a primary endpoint and effectiveness profile as a secondary endpoint, in a large population of school-aged children.

Participants and the study investigators assessing drug safety will not be blinded to treatment arms. Only the laboratory-based effectiveness measurement will be performed by blinded operators. **Masked roles** Outcome assessors Sources for study design Source: [clinicaltrials.gov](https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06282315) ## Outcomes ### Primary outcomes 1. AEs and SAEs record of participants treated with FDC compared to ALB. Timeframe: 7 days, active surveillance (Day 0 (1 hour), Day 1, Day 2 and Day 7 post-intervention) and passive surveillance (From Day 0 up to Day 6 post-intervention) Adverse events will be recorded in the source documents and the electronic Case Report Form during the trial. The nature of the AE, its date and time of onset, duration and severity, therapy employed (only for SAEs) and the investigator's opinion of causality to the study drug with an alternate aetiology, if appropriate, will be documented. Changes in the severity of an AE will be documented to allow an assessment of the duration of the event at each level of intensity. Classification of the AEs and SAEs according to their frequency will be performed by the Sponsor at the end of the trial. ### Secondary outcomes 1. Reduction in T. trichiura prevalence in participants treated with FDC compared with ALB. Timeframe: Baseline, 21 days and 11 months post-intervention At each time point, one stool sample will be requested from each selected participant, and the presence and number of STH eggs will be determined by a single Kato Katz method (WHO gold standard for STH diagnosis) using microscopy. T. trichiura prevalence will be considered as the number of participants infected divided by the total number of participants in the effectiveness cohort. STH diagnosis by Kato-Katz on fresh stool (samples analysed up to a maximum of 24 hours after sample collection). The stool sample will be analysed in the local laboratory to estimate STH prevalence at baseline in each school as part of evaluating the STH effectiveness of the treatment arms.
