TB-CAPT MTB/XDR Study

September 30, 2024 updated by: Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics, Switzerland

Two-site Laboratory-based Diagnostic Accuracy and Feasibility Study of the Xpert MTB/XDR Assay for Detection of Isoniazid, Fluoroquinolone, Ethionamide and Second-line Injectable Anti-tuberculosis Drug Resistance

The Cepheid Xpert MTB/XDR cartridge, which runs on the same platform as Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra, has been developed to detect additional resistance to isoniazid, fluoroquinolones and second-line injectable anti-tuberculosis drugs and provides results within 2 hours and on primary samples. An evaluation of the the Xpert MTB/XDR assay is currently underway in clinical settings in South Africa, India and Moldova. The TB-CAPT MTB/XDR Study will add further diagnostic accuracy and feasibility data to the evidence base for the Xpert MTB/XDR assay.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Active, not recruiting

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

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

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Respiratory specimens testing rifampicin-resistant Mtb positive on Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra.

The proposed study procedures would not affect the usual care of patients as we will utilise specimens that would ordinarily be discarded. Similarly, the reference standard tests (next generation sequencing) are non-routine tests not currently utilised for patient care in South Africa. These tests will be performed post hoc with patient identifiers removed.

For these reasons, we are proposing a waiver of informed consent for this diagnostic accuracy and feasibility study.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Mtb-positive, rifampicin-resistant respiratory specimen identified on Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Residual SR-sputum mix not retained or not found
  • Patient previously included in the study

Exclusion for diagnostic accuracy and time-to-result endpoints:

  • Insufficient residual SR-sputum mix remaining for Xpert MTB/XDR (<2 ml)
  • Xpert MTB/XDR unsuccessful
  • No second / follow-up specimen received
  • Second / follow-up specimen culture-negative, contaminated or not available

  • Reference standard uninterpretable (phenotyping or WGS)

    • Where phenotypic susceptibility testing results are uninterpretable, specimens will still be included in WGS comparison
    • Where WGS results are uninterpretable, specimens will still be included in phenotypic susceptibility testing comparison

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
Sensitivity and specificity of Xpert MTB/XDR assay
Time Frame: enrolment
Sensitivity and specificity of Xpert MTB/XDR assay vs. the composite reference standard for detection of resistance to Isoniazid, Fluoroquinolones, Ethionamide, Second-line injectable anti-tuberculosis drugs
enrolment

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
Sensitivity and specificity of Xpert MTB/XDR assay compared to phenotypic anti-tuberculosis drug susceptibility testing and WGS separately
Time Frame: enrolment
Sensitivity and specificity of Xpert MTB/XDR assay for detection of resistance to Isoniazid, Fluoroquinolones, Ethionamide, Second-line injectable anti-tuberculosis drugs compared to phenotypic anti-tuberculosis drug susceptibility testing and WGS separately

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 14, 2021

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Estimated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
