Global estimates of MDR-TB
• 3.5% (95% CI: 2.2–4.7%) among new cases
• 20.5% (95%CI: 13.6–27.5%)of previously treated cases
• 480 000 (range: 350 000‒610 000) new MDR-TB cases
worldwide
• 300 000 (range: 230 000–380 000) MDR-TB cases
among patients with pulmonary TB notified in 2013.
• 9.0% (95% CI: 6.5–11.5%) of MDR-TB cases
have XDR-TB

Fluoroquinolone-resistant MDR-TB
• Without previous treatment of MDR-TB
– use of fluoroquinolone in the treatment of lower
respiratory tract infection
– use of fluoroquinolone in the treatment of nonMDR tuberculosis, such as HREZ + fluoroqunolone
(+ injectable) for retreatment TB cases
• With previous treatment of MDR-TB

Systematic Review
• gene mutations believed to confer
resistance to the injectable drugs: the
rrs and tlyA genes, and the eis promoter.

Performance Assessment of the GenoType MTBDRsl Test for
Detection of Second-Line and Ethambutol Drug Resistance
among MDR-TB Patients
• high levels of specificity: 95.8 to 100%.
• the sensitivities of resistance detection using the GenoType
MTBDRsl test were
– Fluoroquinolone 85.1%
– kanamycin 43.2%,
– amikacin 84.2%,
– capreomycin 71.4%
– Ethambutol 56.2%
• with the inclusion of an extra gene, eis, in sequencing, the
sensitivity reached 70.3% for detection of KM resistance.

Long-term outcomes of patients with extensively
drug-resistant tuberculosis in South Africa: a cohort study
• predictors of net culture conversion
– no history of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (p=0·0007)
– use of clofazimine (p=0·0069).
• predictors of survival
– net culture conversion (p<0·0001)
– treatment with clofazimine (p=0·021).
– Antiretroviral therapy in patients with HIV (p=0·003).

Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis
and Culture Conversion with Bedaquiline
• In this phase 2b trial, Bedaquiline
– reduced the median time to culture conversion from 125
days to 83 days (hazard ratio 2.44 (95% CI 1.57-3.80)
– Increased the rate of culture conversion at 24 weeks (79%
vs. 58%, P = 0.008) and at 120 weeks (62% vs. 44%, P =
0.04).
• The overall incidence of adverse events was similar in the two
groups.
• There were 10 deaths in the bedaquiline group and 2 in the
placebo group, with no causal pattern evident.

In Summary
• Globally, 9.0% (95% CI: 6.5–11.5%) of MDR-TB cases have
XDR-TB.
• Rapid diagnosis of resistance to rifampicin, fluoroquinolone and
second line injectables will be helpful in the choice of regimens.
• Do not add a new drug to a failing MDR-TB regimen.
• Evidence is emerging that proper use of clofazimine, linezolid,
meropenem, and new drugs improves the outcome of XDR-TB.
However, experience is insufficient in terms of the type of drugs,
the number of drugs and the duration required for the treatment
of XDR-TB.
• Would countries be interested in using a standardized protocol
for the treatment of quinolone-resistant TB and XDR-TB?
