    Karadzovska et al. Parasites & Vectors (2017) 10:528 DOI 10.1186/s13071-017-2469-x RESEARCH Open Access A randomized, controlled field study to assess the efficacy and safety of lotilaner flavored chewable tablets (Credelio™)in eliminating fleas in client-owned dogs in the USA Daniela Karadzovska1, Kimberly Chappell2, Shane Coble2, Martin Murphy3, Daniela Cavalleri3, Scott Wiseman4, Jason Drake2* and Steve Nanchen3 Spanish version: Please see Additional file 1 (https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-017-2469-x) for the Spanish version of this article and Additional file 2 for the French translation of the Abstract. Abstract Background: Preclinical studies have shown that the novel isoxazoline, lotilaner (Credelio™, Elanco) administered orally to dogs, produces rapid flea and tick knockdown and sustained speed of kill for at least a month post- treatment with a wide safety margin. A field study was undertaken to validate pre-clinical results. Methods: Dogs were enrolled at 10 veterinary clinics across the United States. Qualifying households containing up to three dogs and one primary dog with at least 10 fleas were randomized 2:1 to receive lotilaner (Credelio™,Elanco)at the recommended minimum dose of 20 mg/kg, or afoxolaner (Nexgard®, Merial), administered per label, to give a minimum dose of 2.5 mg/kg. Treatments were dispensed on Days 0, 30 and 60 for administration by owners; all household dogs received the same treatment as the primary dog. Post-enrollment flea and tick counts were made on primary dogs on Days 30, 60 and 90, and all dogs were assessed for tablet palatability and safety.

  • (Credelio™) Against Haemaphysalis Longicornis Infestations of Dogs
    Otaki et al. Parasites & Vectors (2018) 11:448 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-018-3032-0 RESEARCH Open Access Laboratory evaluation of the efficacy of lotilaner (Credelio™) against Haemaphysalis longicornis infestations of dogs Hiroshi Otaki1, Junko Sonobe1, Martin Murphy2, Daniela Cavalleri2, Wolfgang Seewald2, Jason Drake3* and Steve Nanchen2 Abstract Background: Throughout Japan, Korea and China, Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks are vectors of Babesia gibsoni, which causes severe and progressive anemia in dogs. This study evaluated the efficacy of a single administration of lotilaner flavored chewable tablets (CredelioTM) against experimental canine H. longicornis infestations. Methods: Twenty-two healthy Beagles were ranked in descending order of counts of H. longicornis completed 48 h after challenge on Day -7. The 16 dogs with the highest live tick counts were blocked into pairs and within pairs randomized to either lotilaner-treatment at a minimum dose rate of 20 mg/kg or sham-treated controls. Treatment was administered within 30 ± 5 min following feeding on Day 0. Infestations with 50 unfed adult H. longicornis were completed on Days -2, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35. Elizabethan collars were placed for 48 (± 2) h after each infestation and a T-shirt was placed on each dog to facilitate attachment. Ticks were counted in situ 12 and 24 h post-treatment and counted and removed after an additional 24 h (48 h after treatment) and 48 h after each post- treatment infestation. Dogs were sedated for tick challenges and counts. Live attached ticks on each dog were counted for efficacy assessments. Lotilaner was considered effective if the average tick attachment rate in the control group was at least 20%, if there was a statistically significant difference (P < 0.05) in mean tick counts between treated and control groups, and if the lotilaner-treated group had a calculated efficacy of at least 90%.

  • The Novel Isoxazoline Ectoparasiticide Lotilaner (Credelio™): a Non-Competitive Antagonist Specific to Invertebrates Γ-Aminob
    Rufener et al. Parasites & Vectors (2017) 10:530 DOI 10.1186/s13071-017-2470-4 RESEARCH Open Access The novel isoxazoline ectoparasiticide lotilaner (Credelio™): a non-competitive antagonist specific to invertebrates γ- aminobutyric acid-gated chloride channels (GABACls) Lucien Rufener1*, Vanessa Danelli1, Daniel Bertrand2 and Heinz Sager1 The online version of this article (https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-017-2470-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users. Please see Additional file 2 for the French translation of the Abstract. Abstract Background: The isoxazolines are a novel class of parasiticides that are potent inhibitors of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channels (GABACls) and, to a lesser extent, of inhibitory glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls). Lotilaner (Credelio™), a novel representative of this chemical class, is currently evaluated for its excellent ectoparasiticide properties. Methods: In this study, we investigated the molecular mode of action and pharmacology of lotilaner. We report the successful gene identification, cDNA cloning and functional expression in Xenopus oocytes of Drosohpila melanogaster (wild type and dieldrin/fipronil-resistant forms), Lepeophtheirus salmonis (an ectoparasite copepod crustacean of salmon), Rhipicephalus microplus and Canis lupus familiaris GABACls. Automated Xenopus oocyte two-electrode voltage clamp electrophysiology was used to assess GABACls functionality and to compare ion channel inhibition by lotilaner with that of established insecticides addressing GABACls as targets. Results: In these assays, we demonstrated that lotilaner is a potent non-competitive antagonist of insects (fly) GABACls. No cross-resistance with dieldrin or fipronil resistance mutations was detected, suggesting that lotilaner might bind to a site at least partly different from the one bound by known GABACl blockers.

Agramonte NM, Bloomquist JR, Bernier UR. PLoS Negl Trop Dis. 2017 Sep 20 This paper might be of interest to some as it shows some dose-response curves for a Puerto Rican strain of Ae. Aegypti in response to topical toxicity of five insecticides (permethrin, etofenprox, deltamethrin, DDT, transfluthrin) was determined Behavioral differences in blood-feeding activity for pyrethroid-resistant and pyrethroid-susceptible strains of Ae. aegypti when exposed to pyrethroid-treated cloth were also explored.
