PA-824-CL-007: Phase IIa Evaluation of Early Bactericidal Activity in Pulmonary Tuberculosis

April 10, 2017 updated by: Global Alliance for TB Drug Development

A Phase IIa Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Extended Early Bactericidal Activity and Pharmacokinetics of 14 Days' Treatment With Four Oral Doses of PA-824 in Adult Participants With Newly Diagnosed, Uncomplicated, Smear-Positive, Pulmonary Tuberculosis

The trial will evaluate the extended bactericidal activity of 14 consecutive days of oral administration of PA-824 at 200, 600, 1000 and 1200 mg per day in adult patients with newly diagnosed, uncomplicated, smear positive tuberculosis. A control group will receive standard TB treatment.
