September 24, 2020 updated by: Hee Seok Lee, National Cancer Center, Korea

Absorption of Anti-tuberculosis Drugs and Its Effect to Treatment Response in Gastrectomized Patients

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of gastrectomy on pharmacokinetic profile of first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB).

Study Overview

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Gastrectomy is a well-known risk factor for TB. Also, there were some reports about malabsorption of anti-TB drugs in the gastrectomized patients. However, pharmacokinetics of recently used first line anti-TB drugs in the gastrectomized patients have not been well evaluated simultaneously. Therefore, the investigators aim to evaluate the effect of gastrectomy on pharmacokinetic profile of first-line anti-TB drugs in patients with pulmonary TB through this study.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Study Population

Among patients with pulmonary TB diagnosed in our hospital and treated with 4 first line anti-TB drug(isoniazid/rifampicin/ethambutol/pyrazinamide= HREZ), we recruit patients who underwent gastrectomy to Gastrectomy group. And then, we recruit age-sex matched patients who did not underwent gastrectomy to Non-gastrectomy group.(age ±3 years)

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age greater than 18 years and less than 80 years
  2. pulmonary TB confirmed by microbiologic test such as AFB culture or TB PCR
  3. usage of 4 first-line anti-TB drugs (Isoniazid(INH) Rifampin(RFP) Ethambutol(EMB), Pyrazinamide(PZA) = HREZ)

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. patients with liver disease (bilirubin ≥ 1.5 mg/d or AST ≥ 2 x normal upper limit) or chronic renal failure (Cr ≥ 2.0 mg/d) who cannot use first-line anti-TB drugs
  2. patients with AIDS or hypoalbuminemia(albumin < 3.0g/dl)that will influence pharmacokinetics of first line anti-TB drugs
  3. patients using other drugs that will influence pharmacokinetics of first line anti-TB drugs during anti-TB treatment (e.g warfarin)
  4. patients using anti-cancer or immunosuppressive agents that will influence the response of pulmonary TB to anti-TB drugs
  5. discontinuation of first-line anti-TB drugs(HREZ)due to side effect or resistance
  6. follow-up loss before completion of anti-TB treatment
  7. any condition making the patients undergo gastrectomy during anti-TB treatment in case of Non-gastrectomy group

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Gastrectomy
Twenty gastrectomized patients with pulmonary TB, treated with standard first line anti-TB drugs(isoniazid/rifampicin/ethambutol/pyrazinamide), administered daily, orally
Drug: standard first line anti-TB drugs
We will perform pharmacokinetic study in gastrectomy and non-gastrectomy group, to evaluate the effect of gastrectomy on pharmacokinetic profile of first-line anti-TB drugs in patients with TB
Other Names:
  • Pharmacokinetics of Anti-tuberculosis Drugs
Non-gastrectomy
Twenty non-gastrectomized patients with pulmonary TB, treated with standard first line anti-TB drugs(isoniazid/rifampicin/ethambutol/pyrazinamide), administered daily, orally
Drug: standard first line anti-TB drugs
We will perform pharmacokinetic study in gastrectomy and non-gastrectomy group, to evaluate the effect of gastrectomy on pharmacokinetic profile of first-line anti-TB drugs in patients with TB

  • Pharmacokinetics of Anti-tuberculosis Drugs

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The change in the maximum concentration (Cmax) of first-line TB drugs
Time Frame: Before and 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours after dosing
Before and 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours after dosing

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The effects of pharmacokinetics on responses of pulmonary TB to anti-TB drug
Time Frame: 9month after anti-TB treatment
Treatment duration can be varied according to several factors such as a first TB episode or not, cavitary TB, and AFB culture(+) after 2month-treatment etc. We will plan 6 or 9 months treatment for each patient according to these factors. During treatment period, we will check chest radiographs and sputum AFB smear/culture with every 2-3month intervals. At 9month after treatment, we will evaluate the effects of pharmacokinetics on responses of pulmonary TB to anti-TB drug by taking account of improvement on chest radiograph and negative conversion and its continuation on sputum smear/culture.
9month after anti-TB treatment
