Over one billion people worldwide are infected with
soil-transmitted helminths (STH). STH infections (Ascaris lumbricoides,
Trichuris trichiura, hookworm and Strongyloides stercoralis) can
contribute to anaemia, malnutrition, and delayed cognitive development among others. Currently, the cornerstone for controlling STH is
mass drug administration (MDA) programs with benzimidazole drugs,
albendazole or mebendazole. However, some studies start to suspect
of benzimidazole-resistance, already observed in veterinary medicine in
high rates.
