Clinical Trial Summary

Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in Ethiopia causes severe dermatological mutilations. Forms that require systemic treatment are cLCL, MCL, and DCL. National guidelines recommend equally all drugs that are also used for VL treatment. Miltefosine is one of these recommended medications but remains underused due to scarcity of drugs.

Outcomes of patients receiving miltefosine have never been documented systematically in Ethiopia until today. This is needed to provide evidence to advocate for increased access to miltefosine in Ethiopia, and to establish baseline data for future research on CL treatment options. The aim of this study is to document treatment outcomes of patients with cLCL, MCL, and DCL receiving systemic treatment using miltefosine within a routine care setting located in an endemic area in Ethiopia.
