Prof. Lineu Prestes 580, Bl. 13, 05508-900 São Paulo, SP, Brasil *Divisão de Programas Especiais, Superintendência de Controle de Endemias, Phenothiazine drugs – fluphenazine, chlorpromazine, methotrimeprazine and trifluoperazine – were evaluated as modulating agents against Brazilian chloroquine-resistant fresh isolates of Plasmodium falciparum. Aiming tosimulate therapeutic schedules, chloroquine was employed at the concentration used for sensitive falciparum ma-laria treatment and anti-psychotic therapeutic concentrations of the phenothiazine drugs were adopted in two-foldserial dilutions. The in vitro microtechnique for drug susceptibility was employed. Unlike earlier reported data, thephenothiazine modulating effect was not observed. However, all the drugs demonstrated intrinsic antiplasmodialactivity in concentrations lower than those described in the literature. In addition, IC estimates have been shown to be inferior to the usual anti-psychotic therapeutic concentrations. Statistical analysis also suggested an increasein the parasitaemia rate or, even, a predominant antiparasitic effect of phenothiazine over chloroquine when usedin combination. Key words: antimalarial - chloroquine - multidrug resistance - phenothiazines - modulating agents - chemosensitizer agents The global situation of malaria is claiming attention we evaluated the potential effect of the phenothiazine more than ever.

According to these, coincident and separated, parallel and concurrent (one or two intercepts) lines were fitted. The10% significance level was adopted for the likelihood ra-tio statistic which, in this case, corresponds to the differ- ence between two goodness-of-fit statistics. In addition, the 50% inhibitory concentration, IC , of each drug and its combination with chloroquine was estimated.
The susceptibility of the isolates to chloroquine, phe- nothiazine drugs and their combinations can be seen in the descriptive analysis lines (Figs 2 to 6 show the linescalculated for Isolate 1). A decrease in the parasitaemiarate can be observed along the drug concentrations, mark- The inferential analysis suggested the concurrent lines (two intercepts) as the best fitted model for fluphenazine,chlorpromazine (at the 5% significance level), andmethotrimeprazine for Isolate 1. The coincident lines werefitted to trifluoperazine in the same isolate (Table I). For Isolate 2 the coincident lines model was the best fit for all the phenothiazines, with the exception of methotrime-prazine. The concurrent lines model (two intercepts) wasthe best fit for this drug (Table II).
