简要总结
In this phase II clinical trial, the pharmacokinetics, safety and (short-term) efficacy of higher than standard doses rifampicin will be studied during the intensive phase of tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Patients enrolled in this study will either get the standard TB regimen (including 600 mg rifampicin; first study arm), or 900 mg rifampicin plus isoniazid, ethambutol and pyrazinamide in standard dosages (second study arm), or 1200 mg rifampicin plus the other drugs in standard dosages (third study arm). All patients will get the standard TB regimen during the continuation phase of treatment.

研究组 & 干预措施
1
50 patients, treated with the standard anti-TB regimen, including rifampicin (600 mg), isoniazid (300 mg), pyrazinamide (30 mg/kg), ethambutol (15 mg/kg), administered daily, orally, during the intensive phase of TB treatment. In addition they will receive 2 placebo tablets resembling rifampicin 300 mg.
干预措施: Rifampicin in higher doses (Drug)
