入选标准

  • 1. Patients (male and female) aged 6 - 21 years
  • 2. Single ulcer clinically diagnosed as Buruli ulcer (WHO 2001)
  • 3. Laboratory confirmation of Buruli ulcer: on day 0 four swabs from the undermined edges and one diagnostic biopsy from all patients enrolled into the trial on clinical grounds are taken. All samples are investigated by microscopy for acid-fast bacilli (AFB) after Ziehl Neelsen (ZN) staining and by IS2404 real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Histopathological changes typical for BU are recorded.

排除标准

  • In view of the unproblematic nature of the treatment no relevant adverse effects are foreseen. Nevertheless, patients with significant underlying other communicable and non-communicable diseases are excluded in this first proof-of-principle study.
