Brief Summary

Mycobacterial Lung Diseases in Virginia: sequencing and clinical determinants of relapse and outcome

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    Nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung diseases, primarily due to M. avium complex (MAC), are an increasing clinical problem nationwide and now overtake domestic TB in terms of morbidity and mortality. It is also harder to treat and results in poorer outcomes despite longer drug regimens. In this project we utilize a state-wide clinical cohort of NTM lung disease patients to understand what features of the organism (such as the species or subtype or drug resistance profile), the host (such as antibiotic drug absorption), and the environment (such as household exposure to NTM) are most important in predicting clinical outcome. The sum of this research will direct future therapies and management algorithms for this difficult disease.

    First, we will perform whole genome sequencing of NTM isolates to discern relapse versus reinfection and the environmental sources of acquisition. Second, we will utilize a state-wide cohort of new and prior diagnosed NTM lung disease patients, starting initial therapy to correlate clinical outcomes with NTM species, drug susceptibility, other bacterial in vitro assays, and serum drug levels.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Aim 1 [5 years]

      Relapse versus reinfection: Perform whole genome sequencing of NTM isolates from lung disease patients from across Virginia to discern relapse versus reinfection and environmental sources of acquisition.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Aim 2 [5 years]

      Patient outcomes: Utilizing the cohort of new and prior diagnosed NTM lung disease patients that have started initial therapy within the last 3 months from across Virginia, compare conventional drug susceptibility (MIC) versus pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) indices in predicting NTM species-specific clinical outcomes.

    • Nodules, cavities, and/or bronchiectasis on CT scan within the past 2 years

    • If if the above data are not available, but a patient's Infectious Disease or Pulmonary physician has documented the diagnosis of NTM lung disease in their notes, this will suffice

    PK subjects:
    • Newly diagnosed with NTM lung disease and beginning antibiotics for NTM within the last 3 months from enrollment.

    • Prior diagnosis of NTM lung disease, and starting initial therapy within the last 3 months prior to enrollment.

    • Consent to pharmacokinetic testing within one month of enrollment and at six months of therapy

    Exclusion Criteria:
    • List the criteria for exclusion
    All subjects:
    • Age < 18 years
