Leishmanias is a disease caused by the bite of sandflies and is found in many parts of the
world including the Europe, Southwest Asia, Africa and the Middle East. This disease is a
threat for military soldiers in areas where this disease is found. Sodium stibogluconate
(SSG) or Pentostam (Glaxo Smith Kline, United Kingdom) is an Investigational New Drug (IND)
product used by the Department of Defense for over 20 years to treat cutaneous, mucosal and
visceral leishmanias. This drug is not licensed for commercial use in the United States
because of very limited need for the product in the U.S.A. The primary objective of this
protocol is to collect safety data on the use of Pentostam for treatment of
laboratory-confirmed leishmaniasis with SSG 20mg/kg/d IV for 10 days or 20 days and visceral
and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis with SSG 20mg/kg/d IV for 28 days.
Due to low enrollment, the protocol was later amended in version 11 submitted 19May2010 in
serial no. 0096) to remove the efficacy objective and only collect safety data for enrolled
subjects. Prior to this amendment, data were entered on case report forms (CRFs). Per the
Sponsor's discretion, CRFs were no longer required and protocol-specified treatment details
and safety assessments were recorded in the patients' medical records (study file) only. No
data entry or statistical analyses of patient data was conducted.

Primary | Number of Participants That Discontinued Due to Adverse Experience, by Type of Adverse Experience | The safety of Pentostam (SSG) treatment was evaluated through the daily assessment of AEs during treatment. Additionally, clinical laboratory tests including serum chemistry (glucose, electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen [BUN], creatinine, alanine aminotransferase [ALT], aspartate aminotransferase [AST], total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase [ALK], amylase, and lipase) and hematology (hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelets, and white blood cells with differential); vital signs measurements; electrocardiograms (ECGs); and physical examinations were performed at screening and prior to Pentostam infusion on Days (± 2) 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 28 (Days 25 and 28 for patients with visceral or mucocutaneous leishmaniasis only). At the completion of Pentostam treatment, patients were encouraged to arrange follow-up at 2, 6, and 12 months after treatment; however, follow-up was not required. | prior to infusion on days (± 2) 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 28 | |
