Competing Interests
I have read the journal's policy and the authors of this manuscript have the following competing interests: We thank Dr. Péré Perez Simarro and Jose Ramon Franco (World Health Organization) for the supply of eflornithine (ornidyl, Sanofi aventis) and nifurtimox (lampit, Bayer). Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp and Bayer provided posaconazole and nifurtimox respectively, for in vitro experimentation. The companies (Sanofi aventis, Bayer, Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp) did not play any additional role in the study aside from providing supplies.
