ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Miltefosine was originally formulated and registered as a topical treatment for cutaneous cancers."6.43Development of miltefosine as an oral treatment for leishmaniasis. ( Engel, J; Sindermann, H, 2006)
"Future issues that need to be addressed for miltefosine are efficacy against non-Indian visceral leishmaniasis, efficacy in HIV-coinfected patients, efficacy against the many forms of cutaneous and mucosal disease, effectiveness under clinical practice conditions, generation of drug resistance and the need to provide a second antileishmanial agent to protect against this disastrous event, and the ability to maintain reproductive contraceptive practices under routine clinical conditions."4.83Miltefosine: issues to be addressed in the future.
