Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of acetohydroxamic acid (AHA) capsules combined with short-course regimens (BDLLfxC or BDCZ) in patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). The primary objectives are to assess the safety and tolerability of AHA combined with short-course regimens, and to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of AHA. The secondary objectives include evaluating the 8-week sputum culture conversion rate, pharmacokinetic parameters, and exploring DNA damage repair biomarkers as potential indicators of treatment response.

To determine if a high-dose first-line regimen is non-inferior (non-inferiority margin 10%) in terms of safety to the same regimen at regular dosing, in previously treated patients with rifampicin-susceptible recurrent Tuberculosis (TB).

The INSPIRE-TB study is a pragmatic, multicentre, randomised, controlled, non-inferiority open-label trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of seven 9-month oral regimens compared to a 9-month standard of care (SOC) regimen in RR-TB participants susceptible to fluoroquinolones, and a bedaquiline-containing 9-month oral regimen compared to a 20-month conventional regimen in RR-TB participants resistant to fluoroquinolones

The objective of this work is to measure the early bactericidal activity of tedizolid, to compare it with the bactericidal activity of linezolid (reference molecule for the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis) and with that of standard quadruple therapy (reference treatment of drug susceptible tuberculosis).
