However, the long-term utility of ACTs is imperiled by widespread partial artemisinin resistance in Southeast Asia and its recent emergence in parts of East Africa. This underscores the need to identify chemotypes with new modes of action (MoAs) to circumvent resistance to ACTs. In this study, we characterized the asexual blood stage antiplasmodial activity and resistance mechanisms of LDT-623, a 4-aminoquinoline (4-AQ). We also detected LDT-623 activity against multiple stages (liver schizonts, stage IV-V gametocytes, and ookinetes) of Plasmodium’s life cycle, a feature unlike other 4-AQs such as chloroquine (CQ) and piperaquine (PPQ). Using heme fractionation profiling and drug uptake studies in PfCRT-containing proteoliposomes, we observed inhibition of hemozoin formation and PfCRT-mediated transport, which constitute characteristic features of 4-AQs’ MoA. We also found minimal cross-resistance to LDT-623 in a panel of mutant pfcrt or pfmdr1 lines, but not the PfCRT F145I mutant that is highly resistant to PPQ resistance yet is very unfit. No P. falciparum parasites were recovered in an in vitro resistance selection study, suggesting a high barrier for resistance to emerge. Finally, a competitive growth assay comprising >50 barcoded parasite lines with mutated resistance mediators or major drug targets found no evidence of cross-resistance. Our findings support further exploration of this promising 4-AQ.Laboratório Associado de Translacção e Inovação para a Saúde Global - LA Real (Pólo IHMT)Vector borne diseases and pathogens (VBD)Global Health and Tropical Medicine (GHTM)Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical (IHMT)RUNFerreira, Letícia TiburcioCassiano, Gustavo CapattiAlvarez, Luis Carlos SalazarOkombo, JohnCalit, JulianaFontinha, DianaGil-Iturbe, EvaCoyle, RachaelAndrade, Carolina HortaSunnerhagen, PerBargieri, Daniel YoussefPrudêncio, MiguelQuick, MatthiasCravo, Pedro V.Lee, Marcus C.
