Int J Parasitol Drugs Drug Resist . 2023 Feb; 21:65-73. PMID: 36758271
The antischistosomal drug oxamniquine, OXA, requires activation by a sulfotransferase within the parasitic worm to enable killing. Examination of the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship for OXA identified an in vitro-in vivo...
