Registered outcomes2

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants That Discontinued Due to Adverse Experience, by Type of Adverse Experienceprior to infusion on days (± 2) 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 28
The safety of Pentostam (SSG) treatment was evaluated through the daily assessment of AEs during treatment. Additionally, clinical laboratory tests including serum chemistry (glucose, electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen \[BUN\], creatinine, alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\], aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\], total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase \[ALK\], amylase, and lipase) and hematology (hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelets, and white blood cells with differential); vital signs measurements; electrocardiograms (ECGs); and physical examinations were performed at screening and prior to Pentostam infusion on Days (± 2) 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 28 (Days 25 and 28 for patients with visceral or mucocutaneous leishmaniasis only). At the completion of Pentostam treatment, patients were encouraged to arrange follow-up at 2, 6, and 12 months after treatment; however, follow-up was not required.
