Predicting TB treatment outcomes using baseline risk and treatment response markers: developing the PredictTB early treatment completion criteria

2020-10-14

Abstract excerpt

Standard treatment of drug-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis requires six months of treatment. Several randomized clinical trials have attempted to shorten treatment to four months using various strategies but thus far all have failed. The PredictTB trial is an ongoing international randomized clinical trial testing a treatment shortening strategy whereby only drug-sensitive pulmonary TB patients who meet the study...
