About this study

Official title: Refining MDR-TB Treatment (T) Regimens (R) for Ultra(U) Short(S) Therapy(T) (TB-TRUST)-PLUS

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a combination of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine, clofazimine and pyrazinamide treatments guided by PZA sensitivity for 24 to 36 weeks in subjects with fluoroquinolone-resistant MDR-TB .

Read the detailed description

The TB-TRUST-plus is a phaseIII, multicenter, open-label trial. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of the ultra-short treatment regimen guided by PZA sensitivity among fluoroquinolone-resistant MDR-TB patients.A total of 200 participants with MDR-TB will be recruited and followed up until 84 weeks after the treatment initiation.

This regimen consists of two periods of 24-36 weeks. During the first 4-8 weeks(waiting for pyrazinamide drug sensitivity test), the regimen consists of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine, clofazimine and pyrazinamide. Then based on molecular PZA drug sensitivity results, patients will be in divided into 3 sub-groups: pyrazinamide-susceptible (PZA-S) patients , pyrazinamide-resistant (PZA-R) patients and pyrazinamide-unavailable (PZA-U)patients.

The Regimen for PZA-S patients, consisting of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine and pyrazinamide, are given until the 24th week (prolonged to 28 or 32 weeks if no smear conversion by end of 16th and 20th week).

PZA-R sub-group regimen, consisting of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine and clofazimine ,are given until 36th week (prolonged to 40 or 44 weeks if no smear conversion by end of 16th and 20th week) .

PZA-U sub-group continue the previous regimen, consisting of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine , clofazimine and pyrazinamide ,until 36th week (prolonged to 40 or 44 weeks if no smear conversion by end of 16th and 20th week) .

The primary objective is to access the treatment success rate without relapse of the PZA sensitivity guided ultra short regimen.

The secondary objective is to access the median time to sputum culture conversion. Safety evaluations performed are the routine lab tests, blood glucose, vital signs, electrocardiograph (ECG), reporting of adverse events, peripheral neuropathy brief examining with the use of a Brief Peripheral Neuropathy rating scale(BPNS) and ophthalmologic examination, including assessment of visual acuity and color vision,physical examinations and chest CT. Adverse events will be monitored and promptly managed during the whole treatment course.

PZA sensitivity guided all oral regimenExperimentalThis regimen consists of two periods of 24-36 weeks. During the first 4-8 weeks(waiting for pyrazinamide drug sensitivity test), the regimen consists of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine, clofazimine and pyrazinamide. Then based on molecular PZA drug sensitivity results, patients will be divided into three sub-groups. The regimen for PZA-S patients, consisting of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine and pyrazinamide, are given until the 24th week (prolonged to 28 or 32 weeks if no smear conversion by end of 16th and 20th week). PZA-R sub-group regimen, consisting of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine and clofazimine ,are given until 36th week (prolonged to 40 or 44 weeks if no smear conversion by end of 16th and 20th week) . PZA-U sub-group continue the previous regimen, consisting of bedaquiline, linezolid, cycloserine , clofazimine and pyrazinamide ,until 36th week (prolonged to 40 or 44 weeks if no smear conversion by end of 16th and 20th week) .

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Treatment success rate

    To access the treatment success rate without relapse .Treatment outcomes will be classified into favourable outcome and unfavourable outcome.

    Measured: 84 weeks after the treatment initiation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The median time to Sputum Culture Conversion

    time from treatment initiation to the first of two consecutive negative sputum cultures without an intervening positive culture in liquid media

    Measured: Time Frame: 12-36 weeks after treatment initiation

  2. The frequency of grade 3 or greater adverse events among patients

    to access the proportion of patients who experience grade 3 or greater adverse events (graded according to the Division of AIDS severity criteria for adverse events) during treatment or follow-up;

    Measured: 84 weeks after treatment initiation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bedaquiline, Pyrazinamide and Linezolid in people with Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis, run by Huashan Hospital at 15 sites in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Treatment success rate (time frame: 84 weeks after the treatment initiation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Nov 2024.
