Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Tuberculosis (TB) disease is caused by bacteria that have infected the lung. TB bacteria are very small living agents that are spread by coughing and can be killed by taking TB drugs. To kill these TB bacteria TB patients have to take a combination of four drugs for 2 months and then two drugs for a further 4 months. During the first 2 months patients take rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide. After that patients take only isoniazid and rifampicin for a further 4 months, making a total of 6 months therapy.

In A5307 the investigators wanted to test a new combination of drugs to see if the investigators could treat TB faster in the future.

Studies in animals have suggested that one of the four drugs, isoniazid, only works for a few days and may not be needed after the first two doses of TB treatment to kill the TB bacteria. After that its effects wear off to the point that it may even interfere with the other drugs. The investigators wanted to see if stopping isoniazid early, or using moxifloxacin, a different drug, instead could treat TB faster. This study was the first time that this type of regimen without isoniazid had been tested in humans. If the investigators could show that isoniazid stops working after a few days, the investigators could then try to see if they could possibly make a better tuberculosis treatment in the future.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

This was a Phase IIa open label, randomized clinical trial comparing the early bactericidal activity (EBA) of four anti-tuberculosis regimens. Participants with acid fast bacilli (AFB) smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis were hospitalized from screening through Day 15 of the study, during which time, sputum, blood, and urine were collected. Participants returned to the clinic on Day 28 for the final visit. The study duration was 29 days.

The purpose of the study was to estimate the primary outcome within each study arm and the study was not designed for between arm comparisons.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Daily Decrease in log10 Transformed Colony-forming Unit (CFU) Counts Per ml Sputum From Baseline (Study Treatment Initiation) to Day 14 [Pre-entry, Day 0 and Day 14]

      The daily decrease was calculated as follows: EBA0-14(CFU)= [baseline log10 CFU/mL sputum (mean of log10 CFU/mL at pre-entry and day 0) - log10 CFU/mL at day 14]/14. For a CFU/ml count of 0, the log10 CFU/mL was set to 0. No formal statistical testing was conducted to compare the arms. Please refer to the explanation in the Protocol Section.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Daily Change in Time to Positivity (TTP) From Baseline (Study Treatment Initiation) to Day 14 [Pre-entry, Day 0 and Day 14]

    2. Daily Change in log10 Transformed Colony-forming Unit (CFU) Counts Per mL Sputum From Baseline (Study Treatment Initiation) to Day 2 [Pre-entry, Day 0 and Day 2]

      The daily change in log10 CFU/mL sputum was calculated as follows: EBA0-2(CFU) = (baseline log10 CFU/mL sputum (mean of log10 CFU/mL at pre-entry and day 0) - log10 CFU/mL at day 2)/2. For a CFU/mL count of 0, the log10 CFU/mL was set to 0.

    3. Daily Change in log10 Colony-forming Unit (CFU) Counts Per mL Sputum From Day 2 to Day 14 [Day 2 and day 14]

      The daily change in log10 CFU/mL sputum was calculated as follows: EBA2-14(CFU) = (log10 CFU/mL at day 2 - log10 CFU/mL at day 14)/12. For a CFU/mL count of 0, the log10 CFU/mL was set to 0.

    4. Daily Change in Time to Positivity (TTP) From Baseline (Study Treatment Initiation) to Day 2 [Pre-entry, Day 0 and Day 2]

      The daily change in TTP was calculated as follows: EBA0-2(TTP) = (baseline TTP (mean of TTP at pre-entry and day 0) - TTP at day 2)/2.

    5. Daily Change in Time to Positivity (TTP) From Day 2 to Day 14 [Day 2 and Day 14]

      The daily change in TTP was calculated as follows: EBA2-14(TTP) = (TTP at day 2 - TTP at day 14)/12.

    6. Log10 Transformed Colony-forming Unit (CFU) Count Per mL From Sputum Samples at Baseline and Day 14 [Pre-entry, Day 0 and Day 14]

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Daily Decrease in log10 Transformed Colony-forming Unit (CFU) Counts Per ml Sputum From Baseline (Study Treatment Initiation) to Day 14
    Description The daily decrease was calculated as follows: EBA0-14(CFU)= [baseline log10 CFU/mL sputum (mean of log10 CFU/mL at pre-entry and day 0) - log10 CFU/mL at day 14]/14. For a CFU/ml count of 0, the log10 CFU/mL was set to 0. No formal statistical testing was conducted to compare the arms. Please refer to the explanation in the Protocol Section.
