USPHS CLINICAL TRIALS
•SM and PAS
•Measured X-ray
improvement
•Basis for multidrug
therapy
•INH and PZA
•Measured bacteriologic
conversion
•Recommended duration of
therapy 24 mo.
•EMB and RIF
•Measured relapse rates
•Allowed the duration of
therapy to be shortened to 18
mos. (EMB) and to 15 mos.
(RIF)
•Supervised, intermittent,
ambulatory therapy
•Critical role of PZA in 6 mo.
therapy
•1986 ATS/CDC first
recommendation of short–
course therapy
•INH and RIF most potent anti-TB
regimen
•Optimal dose for RIF
•1971 FDA approval of RIF
•Shortened duration of therapy to
9 mos.
•1973 TB Research Section moved
from NIH to CDC
TB Trials Consortium (TBTC)
• Constituted in 1995 for multicenter trial (Study 22)
•
•
•
•
•
•
– Funded by CDC
– Integrated as a consortium in 1998
28 clinical sites worldwide
Links academia to local TB control programs

TBTC Mission: “… to conduct programmatically
relevant clinical, laboratory, and epidemiologic
research concerning the diagnosis, clinical
management, and prevention of tuberculosis
infection and disease.”
Programmatically Relevant ― How to
Improve Treatment of TB Infection/ Disease?
• Less frequent dosing - highly effective once•
•
•
•
and twice-weekly therapy
Improve outcomes in patients at high risk for
treatment failure or relapse
Improve identification of patients with LTBI
and risk of disease progression
Effective therapy in < 6 months
(<9 months for LTBI)
Safer and better-tolerated therapies
TBTC Studies Conducted 1995 ― Present
Study 22
1995-1998
Study 23
1999-2002
TBTC CLINICAL TRIALS
•RBT replaces RIF in patients with HIV
and HAART
•Failure/relapse rate and tolerability
•Paradoxical reactions
•RIF monoresistance
•Drug-drug interactions
23A: All TB drugs in S23 patients
23B: Nelfinavir and RBT (nested)
23C: Efavirenz and RBT (nested)
•22PK all drugs in relapse vs. non-relapse
patients, NAT2 genotyping
•Cavitation and 2 month culture conversion
as risk factors for relapse
•RIF resistance in HIV (+) patients
•2003 ATS/CDC recommends
extended duration for H.R. pats
and use of RPT in L.R. patients

ONGOING TBTC CLINICAL TRIALS
•RPT dose
escalation (600 mg
vs. 900 mg vs. 1200
mg)
•PK evaluation
•Risk factors for
relapse
•What is the best
management of
patients with INH
resistance or
intolerance?
•Evaluation of MOXI in
a Phase II trial
•Can MOXI decrease
infectious period and
potentially shorten
duration of therapy?
•Can a Phase III RTC of
LTBI be
accomplished?
•What is the efficacy
and tolerability of a 12
dose INH/RPT weekly
regimen to prevent
active TB?
•What would be the effect
of substituting MOXI for
INH in the induction
phase?
•Does RIF decrease the
concentrations of MOXI?
•Is the PK of MOXI different in
TB patients?

TBTC Study 28
• Phase II clinical trial
• Compare safety and bactericidal activity of
MOXI substitution for INH (MRZE vs. HRZE)
• Measure sputum-culture conversion at 2 mos
• Improved 2-mos sputum-culture conversion
with MRZE treatment would justify Phase III
clinical trials of Moxifloxacin in regimens
shorter than 6 months

Summary Observations
10 years in operation, TBTC has
 Experienced sites, investigators, coordinators
 Administrative structure - QA process, protocol
development, regulatory process
 State-of-the-art scientific agenda
 Treatment, diagnostic, PK, and preventive
treatment trials that enroll ~235 patients/month
 Study sites in high-burden countries
 Budget restrictions & future challenges
