Rifapentine-Based Shorter Regimens for Tuberculosis and TB Infection in Kazakhstan (RIFA-REAL)
Research on Evaluating Rifapentine-Based Shorter Regimens for Tuberculosis and Tuberculosis Infection Among People Living With and Without HIV in Programmatic Settings in Kazakhstan (RIFA-REAL)
RIFA-REAL is a prospective observational longitudinal study evaluating the safety, feasibility, and effectiveness of rifapentine-based shorter treatment regimens for drug-susceptible tuberculosis (DS-TB) and tuberculosis infection (TBI) under routine programmatic conditions in Kazakhstan.
The study enrolls three cohorts: patients with DS-TB receiving the 4-month isoniazid-rifapentine-moxifloxacin-pyrazinamide regimen (2HPMZ/2HPM), patients with DS-TB receiving the standard 6-month isoniazid-rifampicin-pyrazinamide-ethambutol regimen (2HRZE/4HR), and individuals with TBI receiving the 1-month rifapentine-isoniazid regimen (1HP). Participants include people living with and without HIV.
The study is conducted across four regions of Kazakhstan and is funded through the Western-Eastern European Partnership Initiative on HIV, Viral Hepatitis and TB (WEEPI) grant. Findings will inform national TB policy and contribute to global evidence on programmatic implementation of rifapentine-based regimens.
Studienübersicht
Status
Detaillierte Beschreibung
Despite World Health Organization (WHO), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and European Respiratory Society (ERS) recommendations, uptake of shorter rifapentine-based regimens for DS-TB (2HPMZ/2HPM) and TBI (1HP) remains limited due to concerns about adverse events and lack of real-world implementation evidence.
This study prospectively follows three cohorts over 12 months from treatment initiation. Primary outcomes include favourable treatment outcomes at 12 months (DS-TB cohorts), cumulative incidence and severity of serious adverse events (all cohorts), and key feasibility indicators including recruitment rates, retention, adherence, and treatment completion.
The study was approved by the Local Bioethics Committee of the National Center for Public Health, Ministry of Health of Kazakhstan (Protocol No. 2026-LKB-004-P, 29 April 2026).
