Optimizing(O) RIfapentine-based(RI) Regimen and shortENing(EN) the Treatment of Drug-sensitive Tuberculosis(T)

Summary

Tuberculosis (TB) remains the most important infectious disease in the world. A major barrier to tuberculosis control is poor adherence to long-term and complex treatment regimens.

This is a multicenter prospective, non-inferiority randomized controlled study. The purpose of our study is a) to evaluate the tolerability, efficacy and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of the high-dose rifapentine, b) to evaluate whether the high-dose rifapentine-containing regimen has the potential to treat the rifampicin-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis and shorten the course of treatment to 17 weeks. This study is of great significance for shortening the course of treatment, reducing the adverse reactions and economic burden of patients' treatment in rifampicin-sensitive tuberculosis patient.
