A series of 4-amino 2-anilinoquinazolines optimized for activity against the most lethal malaria parasite of humans, , was evaluated for activity against other human parasites and related apicomplexans that infect humans and animals. Four of the most promising compounds from the 4-amino 2-anilinoqui...
