Summary

This study tests if a new drug combination (moxidectin plus two other medicines) can safely treat three parasitic infections—lymphatic filariasis, scabies, and strongyloidiasis—in communities in Fiji. About 5,100 children and adults will receive either the new combination or a standard one once a year for three years. Researchers will check if the new treatment clears the parasites better and causes no more side effects.
