Patients received daily injections of low dose antimonial + killed vaccine for 10 days followed by 10 day rest (one cycle). After 4 cycles combined treatment cured all patients vs. 8% in low chemo alone. Combined treatment significantly reduced drug dose, cost and time to cure. The vaccine was registered in Brazil.
