- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of patients with favorable treatment outcomes. Favorable treatment outcome is defined as Sustained Treatment success at 12 months after successful TB treatment, who is alive and free of TB. Successful TB treatment includes Cure and Treatment Completed. <br/ ><br>Timepoint: Favorable Outcome at end of 72 weeks (18 months)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of serious adverse events among patients in the study occurring during the treatment and follow-up period <br/ ><br> <br/ ><br>Proportion of patients with Unfavourable Outcome while on treatment regimens. <br/ ><br> <br/ ><br>HRQoL scores at baseline, end of treatment, and 48-weeks post-treatment and the percentage change in score over the treatment period between the regimens <br/ ><br>Timepoint: At 72 weeks (18 months)
