SUMMARYUp to 5% of untreated femaleOnchocerca volvulusfilariae develop potentially fatal pleomorphic neoplasms, whose incidence is increased following ivermectin treatment. We studied the occurrence of 8 filarial proteins and ofWolbachiaendobacteria

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 have to be per

The effects of azithromycin treatment on the presence of Wolbachia endobacteria and on the embryogenesis and microfilariae production of Onchocerca volvulus were studied. In 2002, in an endemic area in Ghana, 37 onchocerciasis patients were treated f

Summary Objective To evaluate the efficacy of doxycycline as a macrofilaricidal agent against Wuchereria bancrofti. Method In the Western Region of Ghana, 18 patients infected with W. bancrofti were recruited and treated with 200 mg doxycycline per d

In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial in Ghana, 67 onchocerciasis patients received 200-mg/day doxycycline for 4–6 weeks, followed by ivermectin (IVM) after 6 months. After 6–27 months, efficacy was evaluated by onchocercoma histology, PCR an

Sub-optimal responses to ivermectin (IVM) have emerged. Targeting the Onchocerca volvulus Wolbachia endosymbionts with doxycycline is effective in clearing microfilariae in onchocerciasis patients with persistent microfilaridermia and in enhanced kil

The effects of 5-week doxycycline treatment on the depletion of Wolbachia endobacteria from Onchocerca volvulus, on the interruption of embryogenesis and on microfilariae production, and with regard to macrofilaricidal activity were studied. In 2003,

Recently, experts have warned that mass treatment with ivermectin alone may not interrupt the transmission of Onchocerca. Hence, additional drugs are needed, such as antibiotics acting on symbiotic endobacteria of the filariae, the causative agents o
