- NCT05021731
- Lead Sponsor
- Miguel Santín
- Brief Summary
Objective To determine if treatment completion with a 4-month rifampin (4R) or 3-month rifapentine (P) + isoniazid (H) weekly for 12 weeks (3HP) regimens is better than with a 3-month (3HR) regimen for treatment of latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) in patients with end stage kidney disease.
Methods Design: Multicenter, prospective, parallel-group, open-label, controlled clinical trial.
Study population: All adult patients with ESKD in who treatment for LTBI is prescribed at 7 hospitals.
Interventions: Patients who accept participation, will be randomly assigned to one of the 3 arms: 3HR (control) (90 doses), 4R (120 doses) or 3HP (12 doses).
Outcome: Proportion of participants who discontinue permanently the assigned treatment. Follow-up: Periodic assessment for permanent or temporary discontinuation, and adverse events of the assigned treatment.
Sample size: 225 subjects (75 per arm) will be needed to demonstrate, if exists, a 0.16 decrease in permanent discontinuation rates in the experimental arms (4R and 3HP) with respect to the control arm (3HR), with α= 0.025, β= 0.20, and 5% expected losses, and assuming a 0.25 proportion of permanent discontinuation in the control.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Treatment completion From date of randomization until the date of completion of the assigned treatment, or date of lost to follow-up, or date of death, whichever came first, assessed up to 16 weeks for the 3HR arm, 14 weeks for the 3HP arm, and 20 weeks for the 4R arm. Proportion of participants who complete the treatment assigned at randomization, defined as: 1) 90 doses within a maximum of 16 weeks, without interruptions longer than 2 weeks, and no more than in 2 occasions, for 3HR (control arm); 2) 12 doses within a maximum of 14 weeks, without interruptions longer than 10 days, for 3HP (experimental arm 1), and 3) 120 doses within a maximum of 20 weeks, without interruptions longer than 2 weeks, and no more than in two occasions, for 4R (experimental arm 2).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Permanent discontinuation because of adverse events From date of randomization until the date of completion of the assigned treatment, or date of lost to follow-up, or date of death, whichever came first, assessed up to 16 weeks for the 3HR arm, 14 weeks for the 3HP arm, and 20 weeks for the 4R arm. Proportion of participants who permanently discontinue the treatment assigned, because of adverse events, regardless the relationship of the event/s to the study treatment.
Permanent discontinuation defined as: 1) not completion of 90 doses within a maximum of 16 weeks, without interruptions longer than 2 weeks, and no more than in 2 occasions, for 3HR (control arm); 2) not completion 12 doses within a maximum of 14 weeks, without interruptions longer than 10 days, for 3HP (experimental arm 1), and 3) not completion of 120 doses within a maximum of 20 weeks, without interruptions longer than 2 weeks, and no more than in two occasions, for 4R (experimental arm 2).Death From date of randomization until four weeks after completing the assigned treatment, or lost to follow-up, assessed up to 17 weeks for the 3HR arm, 15 weeks for the 3HP arm, and 21 weeks for the 4R arm. Number of participants who die while on the study, regardless of its relationship to the treatment assigned at randomization
Permanent discontinuation because of adverse events related to the treatment From date of randomization until the date of completion of the assigned treatment, or date of lost to follow-up, or date of death, whichever came first, assessed up to 16 weeks for the 3HR arm, 14 weeks for the 3HP arm, and 20 weeks for the 4R arm. Proportion of participants who permanently discontinue the treatment assigned, because of adverse events related to he study treatment
Permanent discontinuation defined as: 1) not completion of 90 doses within a maximum of 16 weeks, without interruptions longer than 2 weeks, and no more than in 2 occasions, for 3HR (control arm); 2) not completion 12 doses within a maximum of 14 weeks, without interruptions longer than 10 days, for 3HP (experimental arm 1), and 3) not completion of 120 doses within a maximum of 20 weeks, without interruptions longer than 2 weeks, and no more than in two occasions, for 4R (experimental arm 2).
