Unresponsiveness to Glucantime treatment in Iranian cutaneous leishmaniasis due to drug-resistant Leishmania tropica parasites.

TL;DR: This is the first report of proven resistant parasites contributing to treatment failure for cutaneous leishmaniasis and shows that primary Glucantime-resistant L. tropica field isolates are now frequent in Iran.
Journal ArticleDOI

Randomised vaccine trial of single dose of killed Leishmania major plus BCG against anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis in Bam, Iran.

TL;DR: A single dose of ALM + BCG was safe and more immunogenic than BCG alone, as measured by leishmanin skin test, and the preferential protective effect in boys may have resulted from a greater booster effect produced by repeated exposure to infected sandflies.
Journal Article

Leishmaniasis vaccine candidates for development: a global overview.

TL;DR: This review presents only the vaccines in use and those in development for use in dogs or humans, and is not an exhaustive review of vaccine discovery or the principles of clinical immunology underlying vaccine development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leishmanization: use of an old method for evaluation of candidate vaccines against leishmaniasis.

TL;DR: LZ used as live challenge to test vaccine candidates reduces the required sample size, is cost effective for surrogate markers studies and will induce protection in the participants who are not protected by candidate vaccines.
