Multicentric Efficacy and Safety Study of Antileishmanial Drugs for Treatment of Visceral Leishmaniasis in Brazil (LVBrasil)

NCT01310738 Phase 4 TERMINATED

This study is aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of medications currently used in Brazil for treatment of visceral leishmaniasis. The investigators will compare the effects of meglumine antimoniate, two formulations of amphotericin B: deoxycholate and liposomal, and a combination of meglumine plus the liposomal amphotericin B formulation. The study is designed to demonstrate the difference in efficacy measured as cure rate at six months after treatment and the safety profile based on the adverse event rate observed with each intervention.
