Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with a first lung tuberculosis infection that is not resistant to rifampicin. It compares how fast tedizolid, linezolid and standard four-drug treatment kill the bacteria.
- Age
- 18 years or older and under 75 years
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- First infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the lungs, with a positive sputum smear test and no resistance to rifampicin on a genetic test. No signs of disease outside the chest.
- Earlier treatment
- No earlier treatment for tuberculosis (people with a negative genetic test for isoniazid and rifampicin resistance may still join). No more than one month of the tested antibiotics in the previous two years.
- Biomarker or test result
- Genetic test shows no resistance to rifampicin. Sputum test is positive for acid-fast bacilli (AFB).
Main reasons for not taking part
- Resistance to one of the tuberculosis drugs used in the trial
- Severe tuberculosis that cannot wait 7 days before standard treatment starts
- Pregnancy, wish to become pregnant, or breastfeeding
- Decompensated cirrhosis, or cancer treated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy
- Taking medicines that must not be combined with the trial drugs

Show all 26 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Age ≥ 18 years old and <75 years old
- Woman on childbearing age should be on effective contraception during the duration of the study and up to 6 months after treatment; a mechanical contraception (use of condom) will be strongly recommended
- Male (effective contraception must be used during duration of the study and up to 3 months after treatment)
- Patient with a first infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis of pulmonary localization suspected by the presence of a clinical pulmonary symptomatology, a chest X-ray or an abnormal chest computed tomography, and the positive microscopic examination of a sputum (AFB +, presence of AFB) with confirmation of tuberculosis by a genotypic test demonstrating no resistance to rifampicin, without clinical signs of extra-thoracic involvement
- State medical assistance application being processed ( If patient does not benefit from social security),
- Signature of informed consent
Who cannot take part
- History of treatment in the previous two years with one of the antibiotics evaluated in this trial lasting more than one month
- Tuberculosis having, in the opinion of the investigator, severity criteria not allowing to wait 7 days before starting standard treatment (oxygenorequirement, severe immunosuppression, extra-pulmonary involvement, any sign of severity requiring treatment in intensive care unit)
- HIV-infected patient receiving protease inhibitors whose antiviral treatment cannot be changed and therefore cannot receive rifampicin; or any other drug contraindicated with one of the study treatments (the list of contraindicated drugs is detailed in the following non-inclusion criteria)
- Neoplastic pathology during treatment with chemo and / or radiotherapy
- Current treatment with one or more medications contraindicated in combination with linezolid: Linezolid should not be used in patients treated with monoamine oxidase A or B inhibitors (for example: phenelzine, isocarboxacid, selegiline, moclobemide) or who received one of these products in the previous two weeks
- Current treatment with one or more medications contraindicated in combination with quadritherapy:
- Combination with bictegravir, cobicistat, daclatasvir, dasabuvir, delamanid, grazoprevir/elbasvir, protease inhibitors boosted by ritonavir, isavuconazole, ledipasvir, lurasidone, midostaurin, ombitasvir/paritaprevir, praziquantel, rilpivirine, sofosbuvir, velpatasvir, voriconazole, voxilaprevir
- Resistance to one of the anti-tuberculosis drugs used detected by a genotypic test in accordance with the recommendations of the High Council of Public Health of 2015
- History of anti-tuberculosis treatment (patients with a documented negative genotypic test for isoniazid and rifampicin resistance may be included)
- Significant laboratory abnormalities (hemoglobin <9g / dl, polynuclear neutrophils <500 / mm3, platelets <50,000 / mm3, creatinine clearance <30ml / min, ASAT or ALAT> 3N, and total bilirubin> 3N)
- Absolute contraindication to the use of at least one of the test molecules (isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, pyrazinamide, linezolid, tedizolid)
- Decompensated cirrhosis
- Pregnancy, desire to become pregnant, breast-feeding (for women of childbearing potential, contraception should be used for the duration of the study and up to 6 months after treatment, mechanical contraception will be strongly recommended and up to 3 months after treatment)
- Protected adults (under guardianship, curatorship) and under safeguard of justice
- Hyperuricaemia
- Porphyria
- Optic neuritis or peripheral neuropathy
- BMI≤ 16 kg/m2
- Participation in other interventional research
- Gastrointestinal topicals, antacids and adsorbents and salts and aluminum hydroxides

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
The objective of this work is to measure the early bactericidal activity of tedizolid, to compare it with the bactericidal activity of linezolid (reference molecule for the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis) and with that of standard quadruple therapy (reference treatment of drug susceptible tuberculosis).
The 3 groups in the trial
- Tedizolid armTreatment being tested
Patients will be taken 1 tablet per day of 200 mg film-coated of Tedizolid (SIVEXTRO®), in the morning for 7 days. Then, the early bactericidal activity will be measured and compared to the other arms.
Treatment: Tedizolid arm (SIVEXTRO®)
- Linezolid armTreatment being tested
Patients will be taken 2 tablets per day of 600 mg film-coated of Linezolid (ZYVOXID®) in the morning for 7 days. Then, the early bactericidal activity will be measured and compared to the other arms.
Treatment: Linezolid arm (ZYVOXID®)
- Standard quadruple therapy armExisting treatment, for comparison
Patients will be taken : ISONIAZIDE : o A dosage of 3 to 5mg / kg / day for 7 days (to be taken in the morning on an empty stomach) of Isoniazid (RIMIFON®) RIFAMPICINE : o A dosage of 10mg / kg / day for 7 days (to be taken in the morning on an empty stomach) ETHAMBUTOL : o A dosage of 15-20mg / kg / day for 7 days (to be taken in the morning on an empty stomach) of Ethambutol PYRAZAMIDE : o A dosage of 20-25mg / kg / day for 7 days (to be taken in the morning on an empty stomach) of Pyrazinamide Then, the early bactericidal activity will be measured and compared to the other arms.
