Management of Drug-Resistant TB
Overview:
 Definitions and predictors of
drug resistance
 Treatment principles
 Case-management principles
 Patient-centered directly
observed therapy
 Common side effects of
MDR-TB treatment
International Standards 12
Standard 12: Management of Drug-Resistant TB
(1 of 2)
 Patients with or highly likely to have tuberculosis
caused by drug-resistant (especially MDR/XDR)
organisms should be treated with specialized
regimens containing second-line antituberculosis
drugs
 The regimen chosen may be standardized or based
on suspected or confirmed drug susceptibility
patterns
 At least four drugs to which the organisms are
known or presumed to be susceptible, including an
injectable agent, should be used, and treatment
should be given for at least 18–24 months beyond
culture conversion
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Standard 12: Management of Drug-Resistant TB
(2 of 2)
 Patient-centered
measures, including
observation of treatment,
are required to ensure
adherence
 Consultation with a
provider experienced in
treatment of patients with
MDR/XDR tuberculosis
should be obtained
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Drug-Resistant TB: Definitions
 Mono-resistant: Resistance to a single drug
 Poly-resistant: Resistance to more than one
drug, but not the combination of isoniazid and
rifampicin
 Multidrug-resistant (MDR): Resistance to at
least isoniazid and rifampicin
 Extensively drug-resistant (XDR): MDR plus
resistance to fluoroquinolones and at least 1 of
the 3 injectable drugs (amikacin, kanamycin,
capreomycin)
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Drug-Resistant TB: Definitions
 Primary drug-resistance: “New Cases”
Drug resistance in a patient who has never
been treated for tuberculosis or received less
than one month of therapy
 Secondary (acquired) drug-resistance:
“Previously Treated Cases”
Drug resistance in a patient who has
received at least one month of anti-TB
therapy
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Recognizing Predictors of Drug-resistant TB
Assess drug resistance in any patient being
started on treatment for tuberculosis
 Nonadherence, default
 History of prior treatment
 Exposure to possible drug-resistant source
case
 Community prevalence of drug resistance
If drug resistance is suspected based on any of
the above factors, culture and susceptibility testing
should be performed for at least INH and
rifampicin

Multidrug-Resistant TB
“I have been treated several times over the past five years
and I’m still coughing and can’t gain weight!”
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
MDR/XDR Treatment Strategies: WHO
Three approaches to treatment:
 Standardized regimens
 Empiric regimens
 Individualized treatment regimens
(based on DST results)
The choice among these should be based on:
 Availability of second-line drugs
 Local drug-resistance patterns, and the history of use
of second-line drugs
 Drug susceptibility testing of first- and second-line
drugs
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Categories of Antituberculosis Drugs: WHO
 Group 1 – First-line drugs: Isoniazid, rifampicin,
ethambutol, pyrazinamide
 Group 2 - Injectable agents: Kanamycin,
amikacin, capreomycin, streptomycin
 Group 3 - Fluoroquinolones: Levofloxacin,
moxifloxacin, ofloxacin
 Group 4 - Oral bacteriostatic agents:
Ethionamide, cycloserine, para-aminosalicylic acid
(PAS), prothionamide, terizadone
 Group 5 – Unclear role: Clofazamine, linezolid,
amoxicillin/clavulanate, Imipenem/cilastatin,
thioacetazone, high-dose isoniazid, clarithromycin,
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Designing an MDR/XDR Treatment Regimen
General Principles, WHO
 Use of at least four drugs highly likely to be
effective
 Do not use drugs for which there is
cross-resistance
 Eliminate drugs that are unsafe for the patient.
 Include drugs from groups 1-5 in a hierarchical
order based on potency
 Be prepared to prevent, monitor and manage
adverse effects from the drugs selected
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Additional Important Principles: WHO
 Use direct observation of treatment (DOT)
with a patient-centered approach to care
 Use daily, not intermittent, administration
 Treatment duration of a minimum of 18-24
months after culture conversion
 When possible, continue injectable for
minimum six months (at least 4 months
post-culture conversion)
 Continue at least three oral drugs for full
treatment duration
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Potential Effectiveness: WHO
Effectiveness is supported by a number of factors:
 Demonstrated susceptibility




No history of treatment failure with the drug
No contacts with resistance to the drug
Resistance rare in similar patients (surveys)
Drug is not commonly used in the area
If at least four drugs are not certain to be effective,
use five to seven drugs, depending on specific
drugs and degree of certainty.
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Cross-Resistance: WHO
 All rifamycins: high level cross-resistance
 Fluoroquinolones: variable, but probably
should be assumed to be cross-resistant
 Amikacin and kanamycin: generally highly
cross-resistant, but both should be tested
 Capreomycin and aminoglycosides:
occasional cross-resistance,
susceptibilities should be tested
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Drug Contraindications: WHO
 Known severe drug allergy
 Unmanageable drug intolerance
 Risk of severe toxicity, with symptoms
such as renal failure, hepatitis, hearing
loss, depression, and psychosis
 Drugs of unknown quality (lack of quality
assurance exposes patient to risks with
unknown benefits)
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Determining Drugs to Use: WHO
 Use any first-line drug likely to be effective
(Group1)
 Include aminoglycoside or capreomycin
(Group 2)
 A fluoroquinolone should always be used if
deemed likely to be effective (Group 3)
 Use remaining Group 4 drugs to make a
regimen of at least four effective agents
 Use Group 5 drugs as needed to make a
regimen of at least four effective agents

Initiating Treatment: WHO
 Ensure laboratory services for hematology,
biochemistry and audiometry are available
 Establish a clinical and laboratory baseline
before starting the regimen
 Initiate treatment gradually when using drugs
that cause gastro-intestinal intolerance
 Ensure availability of ancillary drugs to manage
adverse effects
 Use DOT for all doses
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
MDR/XDR-TB: Management Principles
 Isolate until three consecutive sputum AFB
smears (or documented culture conversion) are
negative and there has been a good clinical
response to treatment
 Initiate MDR-TB treatment under close
supervision to provide patient education and
monitoring and to treat drug toxicity
 Tailor toxicity monitoring to specific drugs
employed
 Seek consultation with an expert as soon as
drug resistance is known
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
MDR/XDR-TB: Management Principles
 Use daily patient-centered DOT throughout
entire treatment course
 Record drugs given, bacteriological results,
chest radiographic findings, and the occurrence
of toxicities
 Optimize management of underlying medical
conditions (example: diabetes) and nutritional
status
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
MDR/XDR-TB: Monitoring
 Collect sputum specimens for smear and culture
periodically during treatment once culture
negative
 Obtain end-of-treatment sputum specimen for
smear and culture
 Perform chest radiograph periodically during
treatment and at end of treatment
 Resources permitting, monitor minimum of two
years following treatment (quarterly during first
year, every six months during second year)
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
MDR/XDR-TB: Laboratory Testing
 As soon as rifampicin
resistance is known,
order second-line
drug susceptibility
testing
 Repeat susceptibility
testing on cultures
that remain positive
after two–three
months of treatment
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Patient-centered DOT
More Than Watching Patients
Swallow Their Pills
 DOT is a support system that enables
the completion of the long, difficult
course of MDR-TB treatment
 A patient requires respect and dignity
regardless of social class, educational
level or unhealthy behaviors
 The whole patient, lifestyle and support
system are assessed and routinely
addressed in the delivery of care
 Goal: Inspire and empower patient via
a relationship of trust and support

Management of Drug-Resistant TB
Summary:
 Treatment of MDR-TB is complex and
costly. It is much easier to prevent than to
treat. XDR-TB is even more difficult!
 Expert consultation should be obtained
whenever possible when MDR- or XDRTB is suspected.
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Management of Drug-Resistant TB
Summary (cont.):
 Patients can be treated with a
standardized or an empiric regimen.
Ideally the regimen should be guided by
drug-susceptibility tests.
 There are sound principles that can be
used to guide the design of a treatment
regimen.
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Management of Drug-Resistant TB
Summary (cont.):
 Considerable attention must be paid to
treatment supervision and support.
 A patient-centered approach to DOT is an
important element of successful care.
 Adverse effects of second-line drugs are
common and may be severe. Monitoring
for these effects is essential.

Purpose of ISTC
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
ISTC: Key Points
 21 Standards (revised/renumbered in 2009)
 Differ from existing guidelines: standards
present what should be done, whereas,
guidelines describe how the action is to be
accomplished
 Evidence-based, living document
 Developed in tandem with Patients’ Charter
for Tuberculosis Care
 Handbook for using the International
Standards for Tuberculosis Care
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
ISTC: Key Points
 Audience: all health care practitioners,
public and private
 Scope: diagnosis, treatment, and public
health responsibilities; intended to
complement local and national guidelines
 Rationale: sound tuberculosis control
requires the effective engagement of all
providers in providing high quality care and
in collaborating with TB control programs

Questions
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Management of Drug-Resistant TB
1. The 5 year-old son of a woman you are currently
treating for known isoniazid and rifampicin resistant
tuberculosis presents with cough and malaise for
three weeks and an abnormal chest film. Of the
following available regimens, choose the one best
option:
A. Begin empiric treatment with at least four drugs that the
mother’s organism is known to be susceptible to
B. Begin empiric treatment with the standard initial regimen of
isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide with the
addition of a fluoroquinolone
C. Begin empiric treatment with the standard initial regimen of
isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide
D. Treat first for a potential community-acquired pneumonia with a
fluoroquinolone
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Management of Drug-Resistant TB
2. Reasonable steps for building a regimen for
multidrug-resistant tuberculosis after drugsensitivities results are known include all of the
following except:
A. Always start by choosing any available first-line drug that the
isolate remains susceptible to
B. Aim for a total of four to six drugs that the isolate is known to
be sensitive to (preferably not drugs used previously by the
patient)
C. Second-line agents (like cycloserine, ethionimide, and PAS)
would be preferred over injectable agents to minimize
healthcare resources used in association with injections and
improve patient comfort
D. If there are not four to six drugs available among the first- and
second-line agents, third-line agents could be considered,
preferably in consultation with an expert
ISTC TB Training Modules 2009
Management of Drug-Resistant TB
3. Clinical management and monitoring plans for
the care of MDR/XDR-TB should include (as
resources permit) all of the following except:
A. Daily patient-centered directly observed treatment
(DOT) throughout the entire treatment course
B. Diligent recording of drugs given, bacteriological
results, chest film findings and any occurrence of
medication toxicity
C. Periodic sputum specimens for smear and culture,
both to document culture conversion and monitor
for signs of treatment failure
D. Monthly sputum for drug-sensitivity testing
throughout the entire course of treatment
