Efficacy and Safety of Moxidectin Versus Ivermectin Against Strongyloides Stercoralis

The study is an extension to the study StrongMoxi NCT04056325 and entails modifications based on the outcome of NCT04056325 part A. The study is a phase 3, double-blinded and randomized clinical trial conducted in Cambodia. It aims at providing evidence on efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic measures of 8 mg of moxidectin compared to 200 μg/kg ivermectin in adults infected with S. stercoralis. The efficacy of the treatment will be assessed by collecting three stool samples once per-treatment and once 21-28 days post-treatment. The stool samples will be analyzed by a quantitative duplicate Baermann assay.
