Brief Summary: Rationale

The overall objective of this trial is to identify a safe and effective combination co-administration short course treatment for the treatment of VL which could be easily deployed in a control programme The hypothesis is that the combination treatment is as effective or better than the 5 mgkg single dose of AmBisome and will reduce the risk of parasite resistance occurring Safety and tolerability should be such that the combination can be easily deployed

Objective

The specific primary and secondary objectives are as follows

Primary objective

To identify a short course combination treatment regimen which is at least as effective as a single dose of AmBisome 5mgkg

Secondary objective

To compare safety and tolerability of the various treatments measured by vital signs blood biochemistry renal and liver function tests haematology spontaneous and elicited adverse event reporting

Primary Endpoint

The primary efficacy endpoint variable is parasitological clearance 2 weeks after start of treatment with no relapse during follow up and no clinical signs or symptoms of VL at 6 months post treatment

Parasitology is only carried out at any time during follow-up or at six months post treatment if there are signs or symptoms of VL infection
