Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Identification of biomarkers for therapy response

    3 years

Study Arms (3)

M/XDR

The M/XDR-cohort will consist of patients with a suspected infection with an M/XDR-TB strain.The suspicion will be held on behalf of molecular biological methods (i.e. GeneXpert, detection of rifampicin resistance with high probability of simultaneous isoniazid resistance). The suspected cases will be confirmed by culture (n= 20). Empirically, less than 10% of the cases have an XDR-TB

Other: no intervention

Susceptible

The non M/XDR-TB cohort will consist of patients with no suspected infection with an M/XDRTB strain. The suspicion will be out ruled on behalf of molecular biological methods (i.e.GeneXpert, detection of rifampicin resistance with high probability of simultaneous isoniazid resistance). The non M/XDR-TB cases will be confirmed by culture (n= 20). Empirically, about 90% of these patients have no drug resistance against first line drugs.

Other: no intervention
