Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of a Contezolid and Delamanid-Containing short regimen to standard longer regimen in Rifampicin-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (RR-TB). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the efficacy of short regimen non-inferior to standard regimen? - Is the short regimen safe enough to replace the standard regimen? Participants will: - Be given with either short or standard regimen for RR-TB treatment - Be asked to complete the scheduled visit as planned.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) still imposes a substantial health and economic burden worldwide. Pulmonary tuberculosis has been confirmed as an important risk factor for COPD and this specific phenotype is thereby named as "tuberculosis-associated COPD". Although it is a generally accepted concept, several relevant problems need to be addressed, including how to define this phenotype more precisely, what the clinical characteristics and prognosis are as well as which kind of pharmacologic intervention is optimal. In this study, tuberculosis-associated COPD patients (study group) and non-tuberculosis associated COPD patients (control group) are recruited. After collecting baseline information of participants, the investigators arrange for participants to follow up in the outpatient for reassessment with a scheduled interval of 6 months, which lasts for 1 year. Primary outcome of this study is the frequency of moderate/severe acute exacerbation of COPD during the follow-up of 12 months. By conducting a multicenter prospective cohort study in China, the researchers intend to investigate the clinical characteristics and prognostic predictors, explore plausible therapeutic regimens and promote precise diagnosis and treatment for tuberculosis-associated COPD.
The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, clinical trial to assess the prophylactic efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of the investigational M72/AS01E-4 Mtb vaccine when administered intramuscularly (IM) on a 0,1-month schedule to adolescents and adults. This trial will be conducted in 3 cohorts: Interferon gamma release assay (IGRA)-positive Cohort, IGRA-Negative Cohort and Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV) Cohort.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate 3 dose levels of TBAJ876 for 8 weeks in combination with pretomanid and linezolid, compared to 8 weeks of Isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide and ethambutol (2HRZE), in adult participants with newly diagnosed, smear-positive, pulmonary drug sensitive tuberculosis (DS-TB). The main questions the trial aims to answer are: - What is the optimal dose of TBAJ876 to continue further in development. - What is the bactericidal activity of bedaquiline with pretomanid and linezolid (B-Pa-L) compared to 2HRZE and TBAJ876-Pa-L over 8 weeks - What is the efficacy and safety of the 26-week B-Pa-L regimen compared with the SOC (2HRZE/4HR) in participants with DS-TB. Participants will be seen regularly during treatment (up to 26 weeks) and follow-up (52 weeks post treatment) for safety and efficacy assessments, including but not limited to: - Safety labs, ECGs, vital signs, physical exams, PK sampling, neuropathy assessments and adverse event monitoring - Sputum collection
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare an optimized dose (1800 mg) of rifampicin to standard dose (450 mg if patient <50 kg and 600 mg if patient >50kg) of rifampicin in tuberculosis patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To compare the incidence of hepatotoxicity occurs in the optimized dose vs standard dose arm - To compare any adverse events occur in the optimized dose vs standard dose arm - To compare final treatment outcome at the end of treatment according to WHO definitions of cure in the optimized dose regimen versus the standard dose regimen. - To compare two and three months culture conversion rates in the optimized dose regimen versus the standard dose regimen. - To describe and compare the steady-state plasma pharmacokinetics of the optimized dose regimen versus the standard dose regimen. Participants will be given an optimized dose of 1800 mg of rifampicin daily. Researchers will compare the optimized and standard dose to see if more hepatotoxicity occurs.
Tuberculosis is the third leading infectious killer. In 2021, an estimated 10,6 million people fell ill with tuberculosis worldwide. Drug resistance emerges with the increase of antibiotherapy use. Among the four antimicrobial drugs used for tuberculosis, isoniazid is a first line treatment. It has a bactericidal activity against the tuberculosis complex. Nevertheless, the hepatic metabolism of isoniazid shows variation between individuals. There is a real risk of hepatotoxicity and neurotoxicity induced by isoniazid. The peak measurement (Cmax) of serum isoniazid is recommended to adjust the treatment and to allow recovery. Moreover, several samples allow a kinetics of isoniazid elimination so as to distinguish slow and fast acetylators. Few data are available on isoniazid acetylation. It could be useful to know the proportion of patients treated by isoniazid at a standard dose, associated with a risk of overdosing or underdosing. Inadequate exposures should be studied to understand if there is an impact in the medical care.
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infection caused by bacteria passed from one person to another through the air when an infected person for instance coughs, speaks, or sneezes. This study tests the safety and vaccine-induced immune response of a new preventive TB vaccine called H107e/CAF®10b. H107e is a copy of protein parts from the bacterium causing tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which are also called antigens. CAF®10b is an adjuvant which helps the body discover the antigen. The adjuvant and antigen are mixed together to formulate the final vaccine. The final formulated vaccine enhances the immune system's response against the antigen. This is a first-in-human study, meaning this vaccine is being given to people for the first time. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of the vaccine and its components; however, the study will also evaluate the specific immune responses generated by the new vaccine. The study is divided into two parts, phase 1a and phase 1b. Phase 1a investigates unadjuvanted H107e, CAF®10b adjuvant, H107e/CAF®10b vaccine (low adjuvant dose), and H107e/CAF®10b vaccine (full adjuvant dose). The trial products are administered twice intramuscularly. H107e is also administered intranasally in one of the groups on Day 85. Phase 1b investigates H107e/CAF®10b, H107e/CAF®10b+Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), BCG, and placebo. A placebo is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug. All groups in phase 1b receive H107e intranasally on Day 211. A preventive TB vaccine such as H107e/CAF®10b should be able to introduce the body's immune system to antigens from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This will result in memory in the immune system, meaning that when a person gets infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the immune system will recognise and target the bacteria to prevent disease, thereby avoiding the need for antibiotic treatment and/or other treatments and their side effects.
To determine the effects of endurance training on functional capacity and QOL(Quality of life) in patients with post-TB (tuberculosis) lung disease. Post-tuberculosis lung disease is a major health concern nowadays. There is limited evidence in the literature regarding the rehabilitation of patients with cured tuberculosis which leads to post-TB complications.
