Impact of effective treatment on MDRTB transmission
Preliminary Results from the Airborne Infections Research (AIR) Facility

Partners In Health
53 XDR Patients in Kwazulu Natal, South Africa
Gandhi, Lancet, 2006:
55% had no previous TB treatment – i.e., transmitted
- most had the same “KZN” strain
67% had been hospitalized
100% had HIV co-infection
100% mortality – avg 16 days from TB diagnosis
Reinfection Drug Resistant TB
in a Boston Homeless Shelter
Nardell, et al. NEJM 1986; 315:1570-5
• Proved that transmission
(reinfection) was common
in a 1983 outbreak of
drug resistant TB in a
large, crowded homeless
shelter in Boston
• Conditions not dissimilar
to hospital conditions in
earlier times in Europe
and the US, and in many
poor countries today.

Force of Transmission Implications
Global MDR-TB Treatment Scale Up
• Estimated 500,000 new MDR-TB
cases per year
– More than half result from
transmission
– 2008 - 29,423 cases reported
• 7% of estimated cases
• 1% treated with quality assured
drugs
• Most are treated in hospitals for
first 6 months – until sputum
smear or culture conversion

MDR-TB occurred
– role of non-adherence and default and the acquisition of
multidrug resistance
– strong predictor of non-adherence (OR 7.3 (2.89-18.46)
– but non-adherence NOT associated with MDR-TB
– among adherent patients who had been hospitalized in
the course of therapy compared to those treated as out-
patients
• OR 6.34 (1.34 – 29.72) – began treatment in hospital
• OR 6.26 (1.02 – 38.35) – hospitalized later during
treatment
Anton Chekhov, MD
Community Based Treatment
• Highly effective
• e.g., Peru, Lesotho,
Cambodia, KZN, and
others
• Less opportunity for
institutional
transmission
But, what about
community
transmission?

– Smear and culture correlate with infectivity only in untreated cases
– Evidence that smear and culture positive TB patients on therapy do
not infect skin test negative close contacts.

with active pulmonary tuberculosis. Infect Control Hops

The Madras Experience
(Bull WHO 1966; 34:517-32)
• The first clinical trials of ambulatory TB
treatment demonstrated no more household
conversions after the start of treatment
– Most household contacts had been exposed for
months before diagnosis and treatment
– Susceptible contacts already infected
– Patients no longer infectious
Effects of Chemotherapy on
Transmission
• Brooks et al (ARRD 1973):
– 107 TST-negative subjects living with 21 patients
with positive sputum.
– After up to 23 days hospitalization, 19 smear
positive patients were sent home (they did not all
become negative on culture until after 5 mos)
– No TST negative subjects in contact after the
beginning of treatment converted their skin test.
Effects of Chemotherapy on
Transmission
• Riley and Moodie (ARRD, 1974):
– studied 70 household contacts of 65 new TB
cases on domiciliary treatment (non-RIF regimen)
– never hospitalized.
– A series of 6 TST results showed no transmission
among 25 TST negative contacts after the start of
treatment.
– Most household contacts were infected in the
month or two before diagnosis and treatment .
Effects of Chemotherapy on
Transmission
• Gunnels et al (ARRD 1974):
– studied contacts of 155 patients sent home after 1 month of
treatment in hospital
– 69 Culture neg.
– 86 Culture pos
• 52 Smear and culture positive.
• No difference in infection rate among 284 contacts of
culture pos cases versus 216 contacts of culture
negative contacts
Effects of Chemotherapy on
Transmission
• Rouillon A, Perdrizet S, Parrot R.
Transmission of tubercle bacilli: The effects of
chemotherapy. Tubercle 1976; 57:279-299.
– Sputum smear and culture positivity correlate with
transmission before but not on therapy
• Discordance between effect of treatment on culture and
smear
– Evidence that smear and culture positive TB
patients on therapy do not infect close
contacts.
Effects of Chemotherapy on
Transmission (Rouillon)
• “There is an ever-increasing amount of evidence in
support of the idea that abolition of the patient’s
infectiousness – a different matter from ‘cure,’ which
takes months, and from negative results of
bacteriological examinations, direct and culture,
which may take weeks – is very probably obtained
after less than 2 weeks of treatment”.
• “These facts seem to indicate very rapid and powerful
action by the drugs on infectivity…”
CDC/ATS Policy on Treatment in general
hospitals, communities, and discharge

the admission and care of tuberculosis patients.

Assumes smear/culture pos. = infectious
But, no reported outbreaks from source case on therapy
Dismisses Madras due to high rates from the community
US studies were not randomized – Riley may have selected less infectious
patients for home treatment.
Found faults with all epi studies - uninfected household contacts less
vulnerable
Compared to early studies, most household contacts (in N. America) are
uninfected and more vulnerable.
Concluded that smear + treated patients should still be considered
infectious AFTER 2wks
But, no reported outbreaks from source case on therapy

TB transmission only from

• Patients selected:
– strongly smear positive
– cavitary TB
• 3 of 77 patients produced 35 of
48 (73%) of GP infections that
were cultured
– all drug resistant M.

therapy
– 4 month period of no
infections when drug
susceptible patients were
admitted to the ward and
started on treatment the same
day

*all smear positive patients, relative to the amount of time on the ward
Riley’s conclusions
ARRD 1962; 85:511-525
“The treated patients were admitted to the ward at
the time treatment was initiated and were generally
removed before the sputum became completely
negative. Hence the decrease in infectiousness
preceded the elimination of the organisms from the
sputum, indicating that the effect was prompt as well
as striking.”
“Drug therapy appeared to be effective in reducing
the infectivity of patients with drug resistant (H, SM,
PAS only) organisms, but the data do not permit
detailed analysis of the problem”.

– 97 HIV+ pulmonary TB patients exposed 292 guinea
pigs over 505 days
• 66 cult +, 35 smear +
– 122/125 GP infections (98%) were due to 9 MDR
patients
• all inadequately or delayed treatment
» 108/125 infections (86%) due to 1 MDR patient
• 3 drug susceptible patients infected 1 guinea pig each
» 2 had delayed treatment
» 1 had treatment stopped

MDR-TB transmission?

Conclusions
• Airborne transmission may be the weak link in TB
propagation
– Only about 1/3 of pulmonary TB patients infect close
contacts
• Very little effective treatment may tip the balance
against transmission
• Sputum smear positivity correlates with
infectiousness only in inadequately treated patients.
• Strong rationale for prompt diagnosis of drug
resistance and prompt effective therapy
– can be in the community
TB CARE Transmission Control Core Package:
“F-A-S-T”
• Find TB cases
- rapid diagnosis
• Focus on rapid molecular diagnosis – Xpert TB
• Sputum smear – can also be rapid, but more limited
• Active case finding
• Focus on cough surveillance
• Separate safely and reduce exposure
• Building design and engineering
• Cough hygiene and triage
• Treat effectively, based on rapid DST
• Focus on rapid molecular DST – Xpert TB

Differences
Traditional TB IC
• Assumes that TB cases
on therapy are infectious
until smear negative
• Assumes that there will
be undiagnosed cases
transmitting
– Focus on environmental
controls
– Focus on respiratory
protection
• Lip service to rapid dx
and rapid treatment
– Someone else’s job
F-A-S-T
• Assumes that TB cases
on effective therapy are
non-infectious
• Assumes that all
coughing patients will be
screened, so no
undiagnosed TB or drug
resistance
• Assumes real focus of
campaign is on Dx and
Rx
How do we change an
established paradigm?
• Objection: Isn’t diagnosis and treatment
someone else’s job?
– We are expert in TB IC!
• Perhaps we need a convincing demonstration
(research) project to prove that HCW TB can
stop through the FAST approach.
• If we change our paradigm, what are the
barriers to implementation.
