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.

Thus, it is important to design a clinical trial of NTZ that includes cooperation with basic scientists.\n\nPatients will be randomized to the active drug or placebo in a 2:1 ratio.

With the approval of the protocol chair, patients may switch to open-label NTZ after two weeks of blinded therapy if there is a clinical worsening of diarrhea due to cryptosporidiosis accompanied by either weight loss \\>= 5% or the requirement for intravenous fluids to maintain body weight and/or intravascular volume despite the use of appropriate antidiarrheal agents.\n\nDays 22 - 42, Arm I and Arm II will receive oral NTZ (open-label). Days 43 - 63, Arm I will begin the maintenance phase and Arm II will receive oral NTZ (open-label).\n\nOn Day 63 Arm II will start the maintenance phase. In maintenance phase patients will be randomized to 1 of 2 doses of NTZ 24 weeks.\n\nPatients who are not complete or marked responders at Day 42 (Arm I) or Day 63 (Arm II) may receive a higher dose of NTZ for an additional three weeks.
