New gel tested for healing parasitic skin sores

NCT ID NCT07149753

Summary

This is an early, small study to see if a miltefosine gel is safe and might work for treating non-severe skin leishmaniasis, a parasitic infection that causes skin sores. Fifteen adults with 1-4 small sores will apply one of three gel strengths daily for 28 days. Researchers will check for skin irritation and measure if the sores shrink or heal over three months to decide if larger studies are worthwhile.
