Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective of this prospective clinical trial is to compare pharmacokinetics and safety and tolerability of a standard dose (400 mg) with an escalated dose (600 mg; 800 mg) of moxifloxacin (MFX). This clinical trial will provide important safety information on MFX in a higher dosage in TB patients.


Clinical Trial Description

Moxifloxacin (MFX) is a fluoroquinolone with a high in vitro and in vivo bactericidal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A daily dose of 600-800 mg MFX should be considered for optimal killing of the involved mycobacteria and suppression of drug resistance, which is higher than the currently used dose of 400 mg once daily. In general, safety data to support switching to the suggested higher dose are limited.

For this purpose, twenty tuberculosis patients will start on a standard dose of MFX 400 mg once daily. After 8 days the dose will be increased to 600 mg once daily and on the 15th day of treatment, the dose of MFX will be escalated to 800 mg. In patients who have been treated with rifampicin (RIF) in the past three weeks prior to start of MFX treatment an additional washout period of 3 weeks to reduce the rifampicin induced enzymatic activity will precede the dose escalation. ;
