Clinical Trial Summary

The development of efficacious, safe, and shorter treatment regimens could significantly improve TB management and treatment success rates. This prospective, 3-year, single arm study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a short-course, 4-month regimen including isoniazid(H), pyrazinamide(P), rifapentine (P), and moxifloxacin(M) (2HZPM/2HPM) for the treatment of drug-susceptible, pulmonary tuberculosis, and compared with a historical control group receiving the standard six-month regimen.


Clinical Trial Description

Shorter regimens have the potential to impact on TB control by reducing TB incidence and mortality, and improve outcomes by increasing patient adherence to treatments and decreasing duration to cure, in addition to reducing costs to the health system and the patient. The purpose of this prospective, three year, single arm study is to evaluate whether a short course, four-month regimen containing rifapentine and moxifloxacin (2HZPM/2HPM) are as effective and/or as tolerable as the standard six-month regimen for the treatment of drug-susceptible, pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). A historical group receiving the standard six-month regimen is used as control. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of rifapentine in Asian patients. Analysis of of histocompatibility leucocyte antigen (HLA) associations with adverse events and changes in biomarkers will be done. ;
