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

The study drug is Isoniazid formulated with HUEXC030 as excipient for eradicating ATDH, whereas the reference control is Isoniazid formulated with inactive excipient. Subjects who fulfill all the entry criteria and have written informed consent will be enrolled to the study. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive study drug or reference control drug. Subjects will be genotyped according to a selected panel of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and categorized into high risk or low risk groups for occurring ATDH via a specific haplotype consists of CYP2E1 and NAT2 SNPs. Based on an extensive study result during 2007 to 2011,the estimated frequency for patients bearing high risk genotypes in Taiwanese population is around 25%. Approximately 352 subjects will be enrolled for genotype screening in order to recruit 88 high risk subjects for each of 44 subjects in the intervention and control arms.

Subjects who are stratified as high risk groups will be administered the test drug or reference control drugs oral daily for 6 months or until treatment completion, i.e. bacteriologically confirmed negative of active M. tuberculosis. Subjects who are of low risk genotype will be removed from study after 8 weeks of study treatment, then return to conventional TB medication under the care of their investigator for at least one follow-up visit at 4 weeks after the End of Study.

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
ALT change from baseline to the 8 weeks of study treatment
Time Frame: 8 weeks
The primary efficacy endpoint is the time-interval weighted area under the curve (AUC) of change from baseline in serum ALT, primarily in patients with high risk genotypes. The area under ALT change curve was estimated using the linear trapezoidal rule. The AUC was a measure of cumulative ALT differences from baseline to the 8 weeks of double-blind treatment period.
8 weeks

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
Incidence of ATDH in high risk genotype subjects treated with investigational drugs
Time Frame: 8 weeks
Primarily in patients with high risk genotypes, the lowering incidence of ATDH in subjects treated with anti-TB drugs in combination with HUEXC030 for 8 weeks.
8 weeks
Incidence of ATDH in high risk genotype subjects treated with investigational drugs
Time Frame: 26 weeks
Primarily in patients with high risk genotypes, the lowering incidence of ATDH in subjects treated with anti-TB drugs in combination with HUEXC030 for 26 weeks or at treatment completion.
26 weeks
Percentage of patients cured by the end of treatment
Time Frame: 8 weeks
At 8 weeks, the investigational product is not inferior in effectiveness of TB treatment to the control drug, primarily in patients with high risk genotypes.
8 weeks
Percentage of patients cured by the end of treatment
Time Frame: 26 weeks
At 26 weeks or at treatment completion, the investigational product is not inferior in effectiveness of TB treatment to the control drug, primarily in patients with high risk genotypes.

The overall reduced incidence of ATDH in subjects treated with investigational drugs
Time Frame: 26 weeks
Compared to control drugs, the overall reduced incidence of ATDH in all enrolled subjects treated with investigational drugs at study ends.
26 weeks
The lowering average level of liver function tests
Time Frame: 26 weeks
Compared to control drugs, the lowering average level of liver function tests in all enrolled subjects treated with investigational drugs at study ends.
