研究概览
简要总结
The primary aim of this pragmatic trial is to determine the effectiveness of a Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) Drug Sensitivity Testing (DST) strategy to guide individualised treatment of rifampicin resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) patients.
The primary objective is to determine the effectiveness of this WGS DST strategy in patients diagnosed with RR-TB. We will additionally perform an exploratory health economics evaluation of both arms, and will determine the feasibility of the WGS DST strategy.
详细描述
The trial will be a single blinded randomised controlled, pragmatic, medical device trial evaluating a Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) Drug Sensitivity Testing (DST) strategy to guide individualised treatment of rifampicin resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) patients. A total of 248 patients diagnosed with RR-TB in the South African Free State province will by randomised to one of two trial arms. 124 patients will be assigned to the intervention arm, consisting of a WGS DST strategy for diagnosing drug resistance profile and an algorithm-determined individualised RR-TB treatment recommendation. 124 patients will be assigned to the control arm where the diagnosis of Mtb drug resistance and individualisation of RR-TB treatment will happen according to the Standard of Care (SOC) procedures.

结局指标
主要结局
The Effectiveness of a WGS DST strategy for individualisation of RR-TB treatment
时间窗: Day 0 to month 6 (6 months)
The effectiveness will be determined by the rate of change in time to positivity (TTP) over 6 months in the Mycobacterial Growth Indicator Tuber (MGIT) system \[time from: Day 0 to Week 24\]. The effectiveness of the WGS DST strategy will be determined by the rate of change in TTP in liquid media MGIT cultures of sputum samples collected during the first 6 months of treatment. The TTP will be used to determine the change in mycobacterial load using a non-linear mixed effect time-to-event model that provides a longitudinal representation of mycobacterial load (measured as TTP in MGIT) at weeks 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24
次要结局
- Health economic evaluation of a WGS DST strategy for individualization of RR-TB treatment(Start of treatment to end of treatment (which may vary from 6 months to over 11 months))
- Impact of WGS strategy for individualisation of RR-TB treatment on Health related Quality of Life (HRQOL)(Start of treatment to end of treatment (which may vary from 6 months to over 11 months))
