It is endemic as well in sporadic areas worldwide including Central America, Chili, Central Africa, India, Indonesia and Middle East countries.(2) It is completely eradicated from the developed communities.\n\nIf not treated early, the disease progresses to the final sclerotic phase where permanent complications including nasal deformities, anosmia, dysphonia, dysphagia and stridor could happen.(3-5)\n\nOf the wide treatments range (antibiotic combinations, cytostatic drugs, radiation, and laser), none is ideal. The causative organism is resistant to most antibiotics and, being intracellular, is not always exposed to sufficient concentrations of drug. A clinical cure is hard to identify because the end-stage is mucosal fibrosis which, even without active infection, interferes with normal function of the upper respiratory tract. The fibrosed mucosa, especially in crusts, can become secondarily infected with bacteria, which may include klebsiella.(6)\n\nRifampin (7), streptomycin (8), ciprofloxacin (5) and levofloxacin (9) have been used in treatment of rhinoscleroma.\n\nMost patients are from a low socioeconomic group and cannot afford the price of antibiotics to which klebsiella is susceptible. (6)\n\nThe usual regimen given for free by the Ministry of Health in Egypt in histologically positive cases is Rifampicin 300 mg twice daily for six months (based on a nasal biopsy and documented as a Tuberculosis, not rhinoscleroma, to allow free delivery of the medication) then another biopsy is taken to identify if cure or not. If not, Rifampicin is given for another six months and so on.\n\nUnfortunately, due to the high level of antimicrobial resistance, poor patients' compliance, and drugs side effects, the treatment failure rate is increasing. So there is a real need for an alternative drug that is effective, safe and has a short treatment course.\n\nGemifloxacin is a new fluoroquinolone that has bactericidal activity. It has good intracellular penetration and low toxicity.(10) It is more potent than ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin.(11)"}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '45 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
