Completed
Conditions
Tuberculosis
Interventions
Other: Pharmacokinetics
Registration Number
NCT02169141
Lead Sponsor
University Medical Center Groningen
Brief Summary

This is an open label observational pharmacokinetic drug study to evaluate Levofloxacine and Capreomycin in patients with Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB).

Detailed Description

Patients receive MDR-TB treatment with o.a. Levofloxacin and Capreomycin. At least one week after start of treatment, the PK samples samples will be obtained via an intravenous catheter at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 12 hours after intake.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
AUC/MIC ratio of Levofloxacinafter day 8 of treatment

The primary outcome parameter is the ratio of the in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) to the area under the serum concentration-time curve (AUC) over 24 hours (AUC0-24h ), \[AUC0-24h /MIC\], after administration of Levofloxacin.

Cmax/MIC ratio of Capreomycinafter day 8 of treatment

The primary outcome parameter is the ratio of the in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) to the maximum serum concentration, \[Cmax/MIC\], after administration of Capreomycin.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Volume of Distributionafter day 8 of treatment

Based on the measured drug concentration during the dosing interval and patient characteristics (height, bodyweight and age) the volume of distribution will be calculated

Clearanceafter day 8 of treatment

Based on the drug concetrations during the dosing interval and patient characteristics (height, bodyweight, age) the drug clearance will be calculated
