A Phase 2 Open-Label Partially Randomized Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Combinations of Bedaquiline, Moxifloxacin, PA-824 and Pyrazinamide During 8 Weeks of Treatment in Adult Subjects With Newly Diagnosed Drug-Sensitive or Multi Drug-Resistant, Smear-Positive Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the mycobactericidal activity of combinations of bedaquiline (J), moxifloxacin (M), PA-824 (Pa) and pyrazinamide (Z) regimens during 8 weeks of treatment.
Conditions: Tuberculosis.
Primary outcome: Rate of Change in Time to Sputum Culture Positivity (TTP) Over 8 Weeks in the Mycobacterial Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) System.
Enrollment: 240 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 240 participants or records.
