The DRUGSBUGS project aims to enhance treatment options for soil-transmitted helminths by investigating the role of gut microbiomes in treatment efficacy. It focuses on the development of a new anthelminthic drug, emodepside, and explores innovative technologies for drug discovery to improve public health outcomes.
An estimated 1.5 billion people are infected with soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) causing a global burden of 1.9 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs).
Current treatment options are limited.
Preliminary studies in my lab hint towards a gut microbiome mechanism responsible for treatment failures of the most efficacious treatment currently available, albendazole-ivermectin. I propose an innovative 5-year project (“DRUGSBUGS”) that holds promise for major breakthroughs in anthelminthic d…
