Promoting Engagement in the Drug Resistant TB-HIV Care Continuum in South Africa PRAXIS Study (PRAXIS)
Promoting Engagement in the Drug Resistant TB-HIV Care Continuum in South Africa PRAXIS Study (PRospective Study of Adherence in M/XDR-TB Implementation Science) Aim 2
Study Overview
Detailed Description
Tuberculosis (TB) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide among people living with HIV (1). Globally, the incidence of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively drug resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB), the most drug-resistant forms of TB, has approximately doubled over the past fifteen years (1-3). Nowhere has this increased incidence generated more concern than in South Africa where interactions between TB and generalized HIV epidemics are causing 'explosive' TB incidence (4-6) and case-fatality are threatening to undermine the progress reached with antiretroviral therapy (ART) (7, 8).
Medication adherence, a key predictor of outcomes in M/XDR-TB and HIV treatment, is understudied in high burden TB-HIV settings (9-11). Patient losses during transitions in the care continuum are frequent (12), increase mortality and limit control of the linked epidemics. Demands of M/XDR-TB HIV treatment are severe including extraordinary pill burden, severe adverse effects, lengthy treatment, isolation and stigma with few parallels in modern medicine (13-15).

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
NO_INTERVENTION: Control
Participants assigned to the control arm will undergo treatment and care for MDR/XDR-TB as per the South African Department of Health guidelines.
|
|
EXPERIMENTAL: Intervention
Participants assigned to the intervention arm will undergo extensive counselling, participants will be provided with an electronic pillbox that monitors their adherence to one of their TB and one of their ART medication.
Based on the recordings provided by the wisepill device we will determine if a participant is adherent to their medication and intervene with counselling, phone calls, home visits and relevant referrals.
|
Participants will receive a Wisepill device for TB and ART medications. Participants will receive an exit counselling session prior to being discharged. Participants will select the content of a text message to be sent when missing a dose as measured by Wisepill non-opening during medication dose-window. Participants will receive a post-discharge phone call by study staff for the purpose of identifying any early challenges or obstacles. All participants may receive a titrated Wisepill intervention (TWI) consisting of a text message, phone call, and/or study home visit triggered by medication non-adherence as detected by Wisepill non-opening. All participants will receive a monthly counselling intervention (MCI). Adherence support groups (ASG) will be conducted on a monthly basis.
