Qualifiers

Is willing and able to give informed consent to be enrolled in the trial treatment and follow-up (signed or witnessed consent if the patient is illiterate)

Is aged 18 years or older

Has bacteriologically-confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis by Xpert MTB/RIF, other nucleic acid amplification test, or culture

With initial laboratory result of resistance to rifampicin by Xpert MTB/RIF or Xpert MTB/RIF ultra, or other DST (line probe assay, culture); and with initial laboratory result that is susceptible to isoniazid by Xpert MTB/RIF or other DST. If rifampicin resistance is detected by Xpert MTB/RIF or Xpert MTB/RIF ultra in specimens with very low bacillary, rifampicin resistance has been confirmed by a repeat molecular test.

Disqualifiers

Is infected with a strain of M. Tuberculosis resistant to isoniazid by Xpert MTB/XDR or other tests

Is infected with a strain of M. Tuberculosis resistant to fluoroquinolone by Xpert MTB/XDR or other tests

Is infected with a strain of M. Tuberculosis resistant to amikacin by Xpert MTB/XDR or other tests and have no result of susceptibility of isoniazid by conventional drug susceptibility testing

Has tuberculous meningitis or bone and joint tuberculosis
