This is an observational study in which data from women with Chagas disease who will take or have already taken nifurtimox during pregnancy and the impact on their babies are studied.
Chagas disease is an inflammatory, infectious disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. This parasite is mainly spread by insects called triatomine bug. If Chagas disease is left untreated, it can later cause e.g. serious heart and digestive problems.
Nifurtimox has been used for more than 50 years to treat Chagas disease in children and adults.
It is not recommended to be used during pregnancy as data from animal studies indicate that it may harm the baby. Currently, there are not enough data to know if this is also the case in humans.
In this study, researchers want to collect data on the safety of nifurtimox use in pregnant women. To do this, researchers will collect the following information:
The study will run for approximately 10 years.

Availability of this study's data will later be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA "Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing". This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014.
Interested researchers can use www.vivli.org to request access to anonymized patient-level data and supporting documents from clinical studies to conduct research. Information on the Bayer criteria for listing studies and other relevant information is provided in the member section of the portal.

| Maternal Complications: Measures of fetal growth deficiency (small for gestational age) | Up to pregnancy week 40 |
| Spontaneous abortion | Any loss of a fetus due to natural causes less than 20 weeks gestation as a spontaneous abortion (WHO/CDC/ICBDSR, 2014). If available, data from gross or pathological examination of the abortus or fetus will be evaluated for structural defects. | Up to 20 weeks |
| Elective/Induced abortion | Elective or induced abortion is the termination of pregnancy through medical or surgical procedures (ACOG, 2014) (WHO, 2014) If available, data from gross or pathological examination of the abortus or fetus will be evaluated for structural defects. | Up to pregnancy week 40 |
| Fetal death/Still birth | Fetal death or stillbirth refers to fetuses born dead at > 20 weeks gestation or weighing > 500 grams. Fetal death occurring > 20 weeks but less than 28 weeks gestation is considered an early fetal loss. Fetal death occurring > 28 weeks is considered a late fetal loss (ACOG, 2014). If available, data from gross or pathological examination of the abortus or fetus will be evaluated for structural defects. • The study will make the final classification between fetal death/still birth and spontaneous abortion based on gestational age and weight. If these parameters are not available, the study will accept the classification indicated by the HCP. | More than 20 weeks gestation or weighing less than 500 grams |
| Preterm delivery | Births delivered prior to 37 completed weeks of gestation per 100 births. Gestational age is based on the obstetric estimate of gestation (CDC). | Prior to 37 completed weeks of gestation |
| Live Birth | A live birth refers to a complete expulsion from its mother of a surviving neonate breathing or showing any evidence of life such as a heartbeat, umbilical cord pulsation, or definite movement of voluntary muscles, whether the umbilical cord has been cut or the placenta is attached (WHO, 2014). | Up to pregnancy week 40 |
| Ectopic or Molar Pregnancy | Any reported ectopic or molar pregnancy will be sub-classified in the respective pregnancy outcome including induced abortion, live birth, or spontaneous pregnancy loss. CDC National Center for Health Statistics surveillance system (NCHS, 2004 ). | Up to pregnancy week 40 |
