Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of change in renal function assessed by eGFR [ml/min/1.73m²] over 2 years (1.5yrs after administration of 6 months of isoniazid therapy 5mg/kg (maximum 300mg) plus pyridoxine 20mg or no treatment.<br>The eGFR will be calculated using the CKD EPI equation using Age, sex, and creatinine. This will be evaluated every 3 months as part of standard care at 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,18,21 and 24 months.<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. Reactivation of TB monthly during the 2 years follow up period from initiation of trial.<br>If positive: patient will be withdrawn from trial to initiate TB treatment as deemed clinically appropriate (but will continue follow up for endpoints).<br>2. Survival benefits-mortality measured using Kaplan-Meier estimate at the end of the study.<br>3. Effect on other parameters of kidney function performed at CKD clinic as standard practice including but exclusively: urinary microalbumin (ACR), 0, 3, 6 and 12 months.<br>4. The effect of IMP in the inflammatory status assessed by serum CRP and optical density of IGRA at screening then 9 months and 12 months from initiation of therapy<br>5. Safety endpoints: SAEs, AEs and liver enzymes (SGPT, ALP, Bilirubin) at 0, 3, 6 and 12 months
