Study Summary

To determine the frequency of complete, marked, and partial clinical responses in patients with cryptosporidiosis treated with 6 weeks of NTZ versus 21 days of placebo. To determine the safety of NTZ in subjects with cryptosporidiosis. There is no proven therapy for cryptosporidiosis in persons with AIDS. Nitazoxanide appears to be a good candidate drug for further evaluation because of its effectiveness in preclinical models, the data from early clinical trials and its safety profile. Cooperation between clinical researchers and basic scientists in clinical trials of agents for HIV infection and its complications is a high priority for the ACTG, the NIAID, and the NIH. Thus, it is important to design a clinical trial of NTZ that includes cooperation with basic scientists.
