Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Diagnosis of active and latent pulmonary tuberculosis, as well as extrapulmonary tuberculosis, is still a major challenge of TB control in China. This observational study aims to evaluate TB-antigen responsive T cell markers in the diagnosis of tuberculosis and extrapulmonary tuberculosis and try to find new prompt and cost-effective laboratory tests for active TB screening.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: TB-antigen responsive T cell markers

Detailed Description

The enrolled patients will be grouped into active or latent tuberculosis according to the bacteriological evidence of TB. The TB-antigen responsive T cell markers will be examined. The performance of each T cell marker for the diagnosis of active TB will be systematically evaluated.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active TB

Subjects met the following: Either Pulmonary or Extra-pulmonary tuberculosis patients TB Bacteriological evidence obtained by culture or Xpert MTB/RIF from at least 1 specimen.

Diagnostic Test: TB-antigen responsive T cell markers
A blood test including a series of T cell markers which are responsive to TB antigens

Latent TB

Subjects met the following: TB Contact in history. Chest X-ray suggestive of non-TB. without any symptoms suggestive of TB. TST and/or IGRA positive.

Diagnostic Test: TB-antigen responsive T cell markers
A blood test including a series of T cell markers which are responsive to TB antigens

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Positive rate and negative rate [2-3 month after sampling]

    Evaluation of the positive rate and negative rate for each T cell marker

  2. Receiver operating characteristic curve [2-3 month after sampling]

    The AUC of each T cell marker will be analyzed and compared
