Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to evaluate time to diagnosis for three assays (line probe, pyrosequencing, and Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility Assay \[MODS\]) to detect resistance to first and second-line anti-tuberculosis (TB) drugs in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains in 7 days or less, allowing for rapid diagnosis of extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Time to completion of rapid diagnostic assays
Time to completion was calculated from date of initial sputum collection to completion of each rapid diagnostic assay. Time frame for analysis of all results was from date of first patient recruited till 21 weeks after last patient recruited (total 83 weeks).
Up to 83 weeks
Study Arms (1)
Patients at risk for drug-resistant TB
No intervention
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with newly diagnosed or previously treated tuberculosis who are at risk for drug-resistant tuberculosis
You may qualify if:
- At least 5 years of age
- Known to be acid fast bacilli (AFB) sputum smear-positive, 1+ or greater (within prior 14 days), positive on GeneXpert, or present clinically with high suspicion of active TB and:
- Had previously received \>1 month of treatment for a prior TB episode or
- Were failing TB treatment with positive sputum smear or culture after ≥3 months of a standard TB treatment or
- Had had close contact with a known drug-resistant TB case or
- Were newly diagnosed with multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB) within the last 30 days or
- Were previously diagnosed with MDR-TB and failed TB treatment with positive sputum smear or culture after ≥3 months of a standard MDR-TB treatment regimen
- Provided informed consent or had ability and willingness of subject or legal guardian/representative to provide informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Institutionalized
- Unable to provide at least 7.5ml sputum (1st and 2nd samples combined)
