PW and PD are employees and shareholders of Enaiblers, and LB and LJS are scientific advisors to Enaiblers. LJS was Scientific Leader of the AI4NTD steering committee and a stockholder of Johnson & Johnson during the study. Johnson & Johnson, the Johnson & Johnson Foundation, and Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, provided funding for this work. Johnson & Johnson donates mebendazole for the treatment of soil-transmitted helminths, and Merck KGaA produces praziquantel, the standard treatment for schistosomiasis. All other authors have declared that they have no competing interests.
