简要总结
The purpose of this study is to study the effect that treatment of dormant tuberculosis infection has on the immunological system.
We expect to observe an impact over the production of cytokines by peripheral white blood cells which may be useful to know if treatment has been effective.
详细描述
As part of on-going studies conducted in the Orizaba Health Jurisdiction in southeastern Mexico, household contacts of pulmonary TB patients who recently converted their tuberculin test and TST+ve contacts from randomly selected control households with no history of TB within the last 2 years (remote contacts) will be enrolled. We assume that these individuals are infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Additional confidence that all subjects enrolled are latently infected will come from ELISPOT analysis of the response to ESAT-6 and CFP-10. We propose to administer INH to 100 TST+ve recent and 100 TST+ve remote contacts for 6 months. To control for spontaneous fluctuations of biomarker levels, we propose to defer therapy by 3 months to half the subjects in each group. Thus, four groups will be defined:
A. Recently converted contacts receiving isoniazid (5mg per kg up to 300 mg daily for 6 months) immediately after recruitment.
B. Recently converted contacts receiving isoniazid (5mg per kg up to 300 mg daily for 6 months) three months after recruitment.
C. Remote contacts receiving isoniazid (5mg per kg up to 300 mg daily for 6 months) immediately after recruitment.
D. Remote contacts receiving isoniazid (5mg per kg up to 300 mg daily for 6 months) three months after recruitment.
