简要总结
The objective is to estimate the efficacy of tinidazole for the treatment of Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) among male patients who have been diagnosed with non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU) at the Public Health - Seattle &King County (PHSKC) Sexual Health Clinic (SHC). Tinidazole was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 2004 to treat other infections (i.e., trichomoniasis, giardiasis, amebiasis, bacterial vaginosis) but has not been systematically tested for effectiveness against M. genitalium. The dosing that the investigators are proposing does not significantly increase the risk associated with taking tinidazole and this investigation meets criteria for an IND exemption.
详细描述
To estimate the efficacy of tinidazole for treating M. genitalium among people male sex at birth (men) diagnosed with NGU, the investigators will enroll men with NGU attending an urban sexual health clinic who have a positive test for M. genitalium. Prior to enrollment, men with NGU will have received syndromic therapy for NGU consisting of doxycycline 100mg orally twice daily for 7 days. After enrollment men with NGU will receive tinidazole 2 grams orally on day one followed by 500mg orally twice daily on days 2-10. Participants will undergo a test of cure 21 days after completing the tinidazole regimen to determine whether M. genitalium has been eradicated (microbiologic cure). Remnant urine specimens from the NGU diagnosis visit will be used to perform culture and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assessment, and will undergo quantitative PCR (qPCR) to determine initial organism load. Urine specimens collected at the initiation of tinidazole therapy and at the test of cure will also undergo culture, MIC assessment, and qPCR .

结局指标
主要结局
Microbiologic cure of M. genitalium
时间窗: Day 38
Microbiologic cure of M. genitalium will be determined at a test of cure visit. Microbiologic cure will be defined as a negative test for M. genitalium in a urine specimen using a nucleic acid amplification test.
