Sterilizing activity of second-line regimens containing TMC207 in a murine model of tuberculosis.
<h4>Rationale</h4>The sterilizing activity of the regimen used to treat multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB) has not been studied in a mouse model.<h4>Objective and methods</h4>Swiss mice were intravenously inoculated with 6 log10 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) strai...

Sterilizing efficacy was assessed by measuring bacteriological relapse rates 3 months after the end of treatment.<h4>Main results</h4>The relapse rate observed after 12 months treatment with the WHO recommended MDR TB regimen (amikacin, ethionamide, pyrazinamide and moxifloxacin) was equivalent to the relapse rate observed after 6 months treatment with the recommended drug susceptible TB regimen (rifampin, isoniazid and pyrazinamide). When TMC207 was added to this MDR TB regimen, the treatment duration needed to reach the same relapse rate dropped to 6 months. A similar relapse rate was also obtained with a 6-month completely oral regimen including TMC207, moxifloxacin and pyrazinamide but excluding both amikacin and ethionamide.<h4>Conclusions</h4>In this murine model the duration of the WHO MDR TB treatment could be reduced to 12 months instead of the recommended 18-24 months. The inclusion of TMC207 in the WHO MDR TB treatment regimen has the potential to further shorten the treatment duration and at the same time to simplify treatment by eliminating the need to include an injectable aminoglycoside.Nicolas VezirisMurad IbrahimNacer LounisKoen AndriesVincent JarlierPublic Library of Science (PLoS)articleMedicineRScienceQENPLoS ONE, Vol 6, Iss 3, p e17556 (2011) |
