Study Arms (3)
experimental group1
EXPERIMENTALThe experimental group1 all oral regimen is consisted of isoniazid,rifampin, pyrazinamide, ethambutol and levofloxacin for 4.5 months. Dosage: isoniazid 300mg(given once daily), rifampin 450mg(less than 50kg,given once daily)or 600mg(more than 50kg,given once daily), pyrazinamide 1500mg((less than 50kg,given once daily)or 30mg/kg(more than 50kg,once daily), ethambutol 750mg (less than 50kg,once daily) or 1000mg (more than 50kg,once daily), levofloxacin 600mg(less than 50kg,given once daily) or 800mg(more than 50kg,once daily).
experimental group2
EXPERIMENTALThe experimental group2 all oral regimen consisted of isoniazid,rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol for 4.5 months. The dosage of isoniazid,rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol is as same as that of control regimen.
Control regimen group
ACTIVE COMPARATORThe control all oral regimen consisted of isoniazid,rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol during the intensive phase of treatment (2 months), followed by isoniazid and rifampin during the continuation phase (4 months). Dosage: isoniazid 300mg(given once daily), rifampin 450mg(less than 50kg,given once daily)or 600mg(more than 50kg,given once daily), pyrazinamide 1500mg((less than 50kg,given once daily)or 30mg/kg(more than 50kg,once daily), ethambutol 750mg (less than 50kg,once daily) or 1000mg (more than 50kg,once daily). .
Interventions
Isoniazid is a widely used anti-tuberculosis medication. Its primary action is to inhibit the synthesis of long-chain mycolic acids, which are unique components of mycobacterial cell wall.
Rifampicin is a widely used anti-tuberculosis medication.
Pyrazinamide is a commonly used medication for tuberculosis, with bactericidal effect against intracellular mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Ethambutol is a widely used medicine in anti-TB regimens with bacteriostatic effect against M. tb.
Levofloxacin is a commonly used antimicrobial for TB and other infections, which acts on the DNA-DNA-gyrase complex and topoisomerase IV. It is the S (-) enantiomer of the racemic active substance ofloxacin.
