Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness and toxicity of WR 279,396, a topical cream for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. This study is to be conducted with a placebo control under double-blind conditions in a local population group in Tunisia where leishmaniasis is endemic.


Clinical Trial Description

WR 279,396 is a paromomycin-based topical cream that has shown some suggestion of being effective for the treatment of non-serious, non-complicated cutaneous leishmaniasis in previous clinical studies. The goal of this study is to expand those observations in a larger, more rigorous study to clearly define the efficacy of this product and collect information about adverse effects. ;
