Filter by:A randomized, open, drug controlled design of experiments was used to evaluate the early bactericidal activity, safety, tolerance and pharmacokinetic characteristics of JDB0131 benzenesulfonate tablet taken orally by drug sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Five groups are proposed to be set up in this test (JDB0131 benzenesulfonate 100mg BID, JDB0131 benzenesulfonate 200mg QD, JDB0131 benzenesulfonate 200mg BID, anti tuberculosis drug fixed dose composite dosage QD is determined according to the weight of the study participants, and delamanid 100mg BID)
TS ELiOT is a stepped-wedge, cluster randomized trial assessing the effect of a next-generation sequencing-based strategy on rifampin-resistant tuberculosis management and patient outcomes.
A Phase 1, Drug-Drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and the Induction Potential of TBAJ-876 on CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein and the Inhibition Potential of TBAJ-876 on P-glycoprotein in Healthy Adult Subjects
The primary aim of this pragmatic trial is to determine the effectiveness of a Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) Drug Sensitivity Testing (DST) strategy to guide individualised treatment of rifampicin resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) patients. The primary objective is to determine the effectiveness of this WGS DST strategy in patients diagnosed with RR-TB. We will additionally perform an exploratory health economics evaluation of both arms, and will determine the feasibility of the WGS DST strategy.
A Phase 1, Partially Blind, Placebo Controlled, Randomized, Combined Single Ascending Dose with a Food Effect Cohort (Part 1) and Multiple Ascending Dose Study (Part 2) Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of TBAJ-876 in Healthy Adult Subjects
Pretomanid is being used in an antimicrobial combination regimen(s) to treat patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). The primary purpose of the Male Reproductive Safety - "BPaMZ/SEM"- clinical study is to evaluate the potential effect of pretomanid on human testicular function whilst being used in a 26 weeks antimicrobial combination regimen consisting of bedaquiline (B) plus pretomanid (Pa) plus moxifloxacin (M) and pyrazinamide (Z) (BPaMZ).
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a life-threatening disease partly due to increasing incidence of multidrug and extensively drug-resistant TB. Diagnostic based on culture and conventional drug susceptibility testing using media take several weeks leading to prolonged periods of ineffective therapy and ongoing transmission. Development of rapid molecular diagnostic tests for the identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and drug resistance has become a high priority. The Xpert® MTB/RIF Assay does not provide information on INH-resistance and the LPA is only recommended for use in smear-positive samples, complex to perform and requires manual interpretation. Several novel assays have been recently developed/CE-marked offering high sample throughput and higher sensitivity for detection of MTB, RIF- and INH-resistance in centralized laboratories. However, published data on their performance and operational characteristics is extremely limited. This is a prospective, multicentre, diagnostic accuracy trial in which the performance of centralised TB assay solutions will be assessed at the intended setting of use with culture, phenotypic DST and sequencing as reference standard. Potential trial participants will be identified at participating TB clinics or hospitals (enrolment sites). Sputum samples will be collected and transported to the associated TB reference laboratories (testing sites). In order for the results of this trial to be generalizable, adults with symptoms compatible with pulmonary TB undergoing evaluation will be screened for inclusion at geographically diverse participating centres in high burden TB countries. Additionally, to supplement the drug-resistant cases to timely achieve accurate performance estimates, well-characterized frozen sputum samples from the FIND specimen bank will be used.
Each year, 10.4 million patients are diagnosed with and 1.7 million people die from Tuberculosis (TB). Despite the availability of highly effective and accessible medications in the developing world where TB is endemic, the 6-18 month treatment regimen is often thwarted as patients fail to comply due to a lack of knowledge about the disease, desire for privacy, and/or stigma avoidance. Successful TB treatment is critical for reducing transmission, the selection of drug-resistant strains and treatment costs. Mobile health interventions promise to increase treatment success, especially in regions where directly observed treatment (DOT) is impractical. The most promising interventions attempted thus far employ a combination of SMS reminders and medication monitors. However, there is relatively little high-quality evidence on their impact, and what evidence there is shows mixed success. In Kenya, the burden of TB is among the highest in the world with a prevalence rate of 558 cases per 100,000 people. There is a great need for the development of alternative protocols, which reduce the costs of treatment and burden of adherence, and more effectively motivate patients to adhere to the program. A substantial and growing literature in the social sciences demonstrates the potential of behavioral interventions for generating large increases in contributions to public goods. Keheala, a feature-phone and Internet-based digital platform that uses Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) technology to register a patient's self-verification of medication adherence alongside support and motivation, based on proven techniques from the behavioral sciences, was shown in a 1,200-patient randomized controlled trial (RCT) to reduce the unsuccessful TB treatment outcomes in Kenya by two-thirds compared to the standard of care protocol. This 15,500 patient RCT will compare Keheala's scalability, cost-effectiveness and social impact to alternative interventions across diverse regions of Kenya.
To evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability at 8 weeks (2-months), 52 weeks (12-months), and 104 Weeks (24-months) post the start of the following treatment regimens in participants with: Drug Sensitive TB (DS-TB) patients given BPaMZ for 17 Weeks ( or 4 months) vs. Standard HRZE/HR treatment given for 26 weeks (or 6 months) and Drug Resistant TB (DR-TB) patients given BPaMZ for 26 Weeks (or 6 months)
This study is a U.S.-based, 1 site (with 4 clinical settings), randomized controlled trial (with funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Antibiotic Resistance Solutions Initiative) that will be implemented to evaluate traditional directly observed therapy (DOT) and electronic forms of DOT (eDOT) for tuberculosis (TB) treatment. The trial will assess whether eDOT that employs electronic communication methods, such as video via computer or cellphone, is a non-inferior approach to monitor TB treatment adherence, compared to traditional in-person DOT (ipDOT), in which a trained person is in the physical presence of patients as anti-TB drugs are ingested. ipDOT is the single best intervention proven to be successful when it comes to TB patients' adherence to therapy (which reduces risk of acquired drug resistance). However, ipDOT is resource intensive and many times challenging to facilitate in-person. If eDOT is found to be non-inferior to ipDOT, health departments and other clinicians might be able to provide eDOT to certain populations of TB patients in a more flexible and potentially cost-saving manner.
