Official Title: Open Label, Randomized, Single Dose Cross-over Study to Assess Bioequivalence Between Single 120 mg Nifurtimox Tablet and Four 30 mg Nifurtimox Tablets Administered Orally, Following High Calorie/High

Brief Summary: This study will evaluate the bioequivalence as well as safety and tolerability of a novel 30 mg tablet of nifurtimox compared to the corresponding marketed 120 mg tablet in adult subjects suffering from chronic Chagas' disease when administered after a high-fat / high-calorie test meal. This study is a necessary step for the development of an age appropriate pediatric oral dosage form for the treatment of Chagas' disease in endemic countries according to the recommendations provided by current international guidelines (EMA Guideline on Clinical Development of Medicinal Products, EMA Note for Guidance on Oral Dosage Forms).
