Summary

French guidelines currently recommend to initiate a 4-drug containing regimen associating isoniazid (INH or H), rifampicin (RIFor RMP or R), pyrazinamide (PZA or Z) and ethambutol (EMB or E) pending the results of drug susceptibility testing (DST). The rationale behind routine use of EMB is to prevent the emergence of resistance to rifampicin (RMP), in case of primary resistance to INH. Hence, early detection of resistance to INH and RIF using molecular testing in Mycobacterium tuberculosis could allow early adaptation of antituberculosis treatment: i) start with a 3-drug containing regimen (i.e. INH, RIF, and PZA); ii) early enforcement of treatment when resistance is suspected, pending in depth susceptibility testings.

the duration of treatment is 6 months or 12 months.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

PCR-based strategy

Treatment based on the results of detection of resistance to isoniazid and rifampicin using PCR (GenoType ® Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Drug Resistance (MTBDR)plus 2.0) in a smear positive patient with pulmonary tuberculosis: initiation of a 3 drug combination (isoniazid (H / INH); rifampicin (R /RIF); pyrazinamide (Z / PZA)) if no resistance is detected and treatment based on suspected resistance in case of INH and/or RIF resistant strain.

DRUG

conventional therapy

Initiation of a standard 4 drug combination (isoniazid (H / INH); rifampicin (R /RIF); pyrazinamide (Z / PZA); ethambutol (EMB or E)) until the results of DST are available.
