Fifth SMC cycleIn progressA typical SMC round involves four cycles of SMC administration during the four months of the rainy season. This study, conducted in one district in Burkina Faso, pilots the addition of a fifth monthly cycle to the SMC round to assess its feasibility and impact on malaria incidence.As of April 2020, coverage survey results showed similar coverage of targeted children during the fifth cycle, and analysis of qualitative data was in progress (see details in cell note). Data on malaria incidence were unavailable due to a health worker strike.

Age eligibilityIn progressSMC is typically targeted at children aged 3–59 months, though coverage data suggests that it is often administered to children outside of this age range. This study, conducted in Chad, examines common barriers to accurately determining age eligibility and the feasibility of extending SMC administration to children aged 5-10 years.As of April 2020, an assessment of the quality of health data at 16 health centers and the analysis of qualitative data were in progress (see details in cell note).

Vitamin A integrationCompleteThis study, conducted in one LGA in Nigeria, pilots the integration of SMC administration and vitamin A distribution into one campaign.As of April 2020, coverage survey results showed an improvement in vitamin A coverage between baseline and endline and no effect on SMC coverage. Analysis of qualitative data was complete (see details in cell note).
