Trial results shows that new treatment for a common STI is on the horizonA global clinical trial for a new gonorrhoea treatment has shown promising results.
South Africa was one of five countries involved.
This is the largest clinical trial ever done for new gonorrhoea treatment.
Delany-Moretlwe says that the oral pill has the potential to simplify gonorrhoea treatment as it is a single oral dose.
Delany-Moretlwe is hopeful that the participation of South Africans in the zoliflodacin trial will help to speed up the registration of the oral gonorrhoea treatment in the country.
