While there are indications that 28 days of miltefosine is not sufficient for treating CL by L. aethiopica, a better understanding of what happens in terms of parasite clearance and drug dosing is lacking. In this study, longitudinal measurements of parasite and drug concentrations during treatment are done to monitor parasite kinetics as well as pharmacokinetics. This data will be crucial to provide more information on duration and dosing of miltefosine in CL patients globally, and in Ethiopia and pediatric patients in particular.
