a

Coordinates used to identify the compounds in each plate. TCBZ, triclabendazole.

b

Identification codes assigned by the Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV). NA, not applicable.

c

Molecular formulas and molecular weights were obtained from www.mmv.org. For TCBZ, these values were obtained from ChEMBL (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl/).

d

Measured at 72 h after drug exposure for the metacercaria (MC) stage. Results are the mean and standard deviation for triplicate experiments at a concentration of 33 μM.

e

Compounds were serially diluted and tested in culture. Results are the means from triplicate experiments. Fasciolicidal activity values were determined with CompuSyn software.

f

r, correlation coefficient.

g

Activity shown against other agents causing infectious diseases, obtained from www.mmv.org.

h

Predictions were obtained using the lazar program (https://lazar.in-silico.de/predict). NA, not available.

i

bw, body weight.

j

Data represent the mean and standard deviation for 10 individual experiments performed in 5 plates.

k

Data were obtained from https://drugs.ncats.io.
