Evolution of Ivermectin Resistance in the Nematode Model Caenorhabditis elegans: Critical Influence of Population Size and Altered Emodepside Efficacy

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The emergence and spread of anthelmintic resistance represent a major challenge for treating parasitic nematodes, threatening mass‐drug administration control programs in humans and zoonotic hosts. Currently, experimental evidence to understand the influence of management (e.g., treatment dose and frequency) and parasite‐associated factors (e ...

Repurposing Oxfendazole for Onchocerciasis: Population Pharmacokinetics of a Tablet Formulation in Healthy African Adults

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Global efforts to eliminate onchocerciasis are hampered by the lack of a macrofilaricidal drug capable of killing adult parasites. Oxfendazole, a veterinary anthelminthic, exhibits macrofilaricidal activity and holds promise to shorten treatment durations.
