About this study

The objective of this study is to compare how accurately the Xpert MTB/RIF assay Ct value at diagnosis and the AI-based tuberculosis activity score predict the treatment outcome of rifampin-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis patients. As a retrospective observational study, data from patients diagnosed with rifampin susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis through the Xpert MTB/RIF assay performed on sputum in 2019 at the participating institutions will be analyzed (up to 900 people).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Medical records reviewOther

    The clinical characteristics at the time of diagnosis of rifampin-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis patients, the Xpert MTB/RIF assay Ct value, the tuberculosis activity score based on AI of the chest image, and treatment results will be collected retrospectively through medical records.

What is being measured

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

  1. Negative culture conversion until 8 weeks after initiation of treatment

    Conversion from positive tuberculosis culture to negative tuberculosis culture

    Measured: Within 8 weeks of initiating treatment

  2. Time to negative culture conversion

    Time (days) to conversion from positive tuberculosis culture to negative tuberculosis culture

    Measured: Within 6 months of initiating treatment

  3. Treatment outcome including 1) Cure 2) Treatment completion 3) Treatment failure 4) Death 5) Loss of follow-up 6) Unknown

    1. Cure: confirmed negative culture conversion plus negative culture results from at least one sputum on the month of treatment completion
    2. Treatment completion: confirmed negative culture conversion at least once during treatment
    3. Treatment failure: positive culture results after 4 months of treatment
    4. Death: death during treatment
    5. Loss of follow-up: loss of follow-up during treatment
    6. Unknown

    Measured: Within 2 years of initiating treatment

What does the primary outcome measure?

Negative culture conversion until 8 weeks after initiation of treatment (time frame: Within 8 weeks of initiating treatment). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Jul 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 3 Nov 2026.
