Summary

Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death by infectious disease in the world, responsible for 1.6 million deaths in 2017. The treatment of active TB requires at least a 6-month combined antibiotic regimen and can cause heavy side effects. As a consequence, treatment adherence is not optimal, particularly in primary care settings. Rapid and reliable monitoring of anti-TB treatment adherence and efficacy is critical to provide adequate patient care and curb relapse episodes and acquired drug resistance.

Investigators propose to evaluate the performance in terms of diagnosis accuracy and outcome prediction of four new biomarkers of active TB: 1) a double IGRA (Interferon Gamma Release Assay) including QuantiFERON-Gold Plus® and HBHA; 2) a whole blood transcriptomic analysis of mRNA (messenger Ribonucleic acid) expression of a panel of 150 genes; 3) a whole blood proteomic analysis; 4) an ex vivo immunophenotyping using flow and mass cytometry to characterize the lymphocyte populations.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Multiple blood samples

Patients with active tuberculosis will have 5 research-specific blood samples: V1, (baseline) immediately before initiating anti-tuberculosis treatment, then 4 samples during anti-tuberculosis treatment and follow-up, i.e. at 48 hours (V2), 15 days (V3), 2 months (V4) and 6 months (V5) after initiation of treatment. The total volume of each sample will be 20 mL for a total of 100 mL.

OTHER

Single blood sample

Patients with Latent tuberculosis infection will have a single specific sample of 14 mL.
