Potential Role of Microbiome in Tuberculosis

Exploring the Role of Microbiome in Susceptibility, Treatment Response and Outcome Among Tuberculosis Patients; a Prospective Cohort Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 10 Oct 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), is a deadly infectious disease and major global public health problem. Recent evidence from animal studies suggests that the microbiome plays a role in TB pathogenesis and immune response. However, until now, no similar study has been performed in humans and thus any influence of the microbiota on TB or vice versa remains unknown.
