Filter by:TB is the most common cause of death in patients with HIV worldwide. Rifampicin [RIF] is the cornerstone of anti-TB therapy. Current guideline recommend efavirenz (EFV) 600mg per day as the first of choice for HIV/TB co-infection. Co-administration of EFV with RIF decrease the plasma concentration of EFV. Because of better safety profiles, EFV 400mg has replaced the EFV 600mg as the first-line antiretroviral therapy in people living with HIV. However, the efficacy of EFV 400mg when co-administrated with RIF in HIV/TB co-infection is unclear. This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EFV 400mg versus EFV 600mg in HIV/TB co-infected patients receiving RIF based anti-TB therapy.
This trial aims to determine whether the addition of rosuvastatin to standard TB therapy in pulmonary tuberculosis results in accelerated of sputum culture conversion. The trial will also investigate potential new biomarkers of sterilising activity and immune-modulatory activity.
This qualitative study is designed to elicit the perspectives of relevant stakeholders to adapt a community-based TB/HIV intervention aimed on providing home-based TB prevention treatment (TPT) initiation for child TB contacts, to design its implementation strategy and, post intervention, to assess lessons learned for future scale up. Participants will include policy makers and health system managers, nurse and physician providers, community health team members, and child caregivers of TB-exposed children. Stakeholders will be asked to participate in two interviews, one prior to the cluster randomized trial assessing this intervention and one after the cluster randomized trial. Trained interviewers will conduct 1-hour semi-structured in-depth interviews that will be audio-recorded, translated and transcribed for thematic analysis using a priori and emergent domains of interest. Free-listing, ranking exercises and cultural consensus will be used to identify context-specific intervention adaptations and implementation strategies.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of locally implantation of mesenchymal stem cell on vertebral bone defects due to infection of mycobacterium tuberculosis. there are controlled participants who receives placebo and patients who receives implantation of MSc
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
This experiment is designed to analyze the metabolites in body fluids from patients with active tuberculosis and latent tuberculosis infection also with health volunteer, then combine the metabolic product features with clinical characteristics, to develop a kind of metabolites targets to evaluate the progress in tuberculosis, thus provide a basis for further utilization of humoral metabolites in the diagnosis of tuberculosis.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of the regimen including high dose rifampicin for individualized duration (3 months after Culture Conversion) for the treatment of drug-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis.
To investigate the incidence of etiologically confirmed or clinically diagnosed active tuberculosis in close contacts of MDR-TB patients.
the study aimed to determine the distribution of respiratory infections in Tunisian population and evaluate the frequency of antibiotics prescribed according to current international recommendations.
This is a first time in human (FTIH) study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and repeat ascending doses of GSK2556286 in healthy adult participants. Food effect (FE) cohorts will investigate the influence of food on the PK of GSK2556286. The study will be conducted in two parts. Part A will be a single ascending dose (SAD) including up to 11 cohorts (Cohort 1A to cohort 11A) and Part B will be a multiple ascending dose (MAD), including up to 4 cohorts (Cohort 1B to cohort 4B).
