Combination Therapy with Indolylquinoline Derivative and Sodium Antimony Gluconate Cures Established Visceral Leishmaniasis in Hamsters [PDF]
ABSTRACT 2-(2″-Dichloroacetamidobenzyl)-3-(3′-indolylquinoline), designated indolylquinoline derivative A, reduced the splenic and the liver parasite burdens by >93.0% in Leishmania donovani -infected hamsters, whereas sodium antimony gluconate (SAG) reduced the burdens approximately 80.0%.

Combination Therapy Using Sodium Antimony Gluconate in Stearylamine-Bearing Liposomes against Established and ChronicLeishmania donovaniInfection in BALB/c Mice [PDF]
ABSTRACTIn this work we report the activity seen with combination therapy using sodium antimony gluconate in liposomes composed of egg phosphatidyl choline and stearylamine for elimination ofLeishmania donovaniparasites from the liver and spleen of BALB/c mice with established and chronic infections.

Antimony susceptible Leishmania donovani: evidence from in vitro drug susceptibility of parasites isolated from patients of post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis in pre- and post-miltefosine era. [PDF]
Post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) patients are a key source of Leishmania donovani parasites, hindering the goal of eliminating visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Monitoring treatment response and parasite susceptibility is essential due to increasing
