Clinical Trial Summary

To assess the early bactericidal activity of Azithromycin 250mg by mouth daily over the first 14 days of treatment for Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung disease.


Clinical Trial Description

This research is being done to better understand several important aspects of treatment of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung infections using an early bactericidal activity (EBA) study design. MAC is an environmental bacteria that can cause chronic lung infection. Early bactericidal activity is the amount of bacterial killing that occurs during the first few weeks of antibiotic treatment. By collecting information about the EBA of azithromycin for MAC, the investigators will quantify the efficacy of azithromycin against pulmonary MAC. ;
