干预措施: Placebo tablets (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Composite clinical TB score
时间窗: 0 (baseline) compared to 8 weeks.
A previously described composite clinical TB score will be used to monitor the efficacy of vitamin D and phenylbutyrate treatment among TB patients on standard chemotherapy. The numerical TB score will include self-reported clinical symptoms (cough, night sweats and chest pain) as well as different parameters determined upon clinical examination anemia, haemoptysis, dyspnoea, tachycardia, positive finding at lung auscultation, fever, low body mass index (BMI) and low mid upper arm circumference (MUAC). The TB score will be determined at the time of diagnosis (time point 0) and at 4, 8, 16 and 24 weeks after initiation of antimicrobial treatment with vitamin D and phenylbutyrate. The primary endpoint will be assessed at time point 8 weeks compared to baseline (time point 0).
次要结局
- Laboratory secondary endpoints(0, 4, 8, 16, 24 weeks)
- Clinical secondary endpoints(0-4, 8, 16 and 24 weeks)
