Parasitol Res . 2009 Sep; 105(6):1531-8. PMID: 19784672
Drugs exist that show long-lasting inhibition of embryogenesis and microfilaria production or macrofilaricidal activity against Onchocerca volvulus. Therefore, the patients have to be followed-up for several years. Clinical drug trials...

Parasitol Res . 2009 Sep; 106(1):23-31. PMID: 19756742
Despite successful mass drug administration and vector control programs, the nematode Onchocerca volvulus is far from being eradicated. Therefore, new long-term sterilizing or macrofilaricidal drugs are needed. The depletion of...
