Summary

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled Phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sudapyridine (WX-081) combined with a background regimen (BR) in patients with rifampicin-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis.

Approximately 450 participants will be screened over a period of up to 2 weeks and randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either Sudapyridine or bedaquiline, in combination with placebo tablets and BR, for 24 weeks. After the treatment period, participants will enter a background regimen period up to Week 72, during which they will continue to receive BR.

A subset of participants will be included in the C-QT sub-study to assess intensive PK sampling and 12-lead ECG evaluations on Day 1 pre-dose, Day 14, and Week 24.

The study aims to provide robust data to support the use of Sudapyridine as a treatment option for rifampicin-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis.

Conditions
