2 Drug Resistant TB: An Update Barbara J Seaworth Professor of Medicine University of Texas Health Science Center, Tyler Medical Director Heartland National TB Center MDR TB Definitions TB resistant to INH and Rifampin TB - No Prior Therapy aka Primary MDR TB TB Prior Therapy aka Acquired MDR TB Results from exposure to a patient with infectious MDR TB Results from inadequate treatment and/or non adherence 2

3 XDR TB MDR TB Plus resistance to one of the fluoroquinolones Ofloxacin Levofloxacin Moxifloxacin AND Resistance to one of the second line injectables Amikacin Capreomycin Kanamycin PRE XDR TB MDR TB AND either resistance to a fluoroquinolone OR resistance to one of the second line injectables. One step away from XDR TB! California ( ): 18 % of their MDR TB cases are pre-xdr TB» Extensively Drug Resistant TB in California CID ;

4 Is This XDR TB? 22 year old who acquired TB overseas Resistant to: Susceptible to: INH Kanamycin Rifampin PAS Ethambutol PZA Ethionamide Streptomycin Ofloxacin Global Epidemiology of MDR and XDR Tuberculosis Assessing the risk in your foreign born patients And in those who travel to TB endemic sites 4

5 Updates the 2008 report Country wide data from China Evidence of decrease in primary MDR in eastern European countries Suggestion of linkage of MDR and HIV in eastern European countries MDR and XDR: 2010 Global Report on Surveillance and Response - New Cases 5

Chest 2009; 136: XDR TB in California of 18 pts were XDR at time of presentation 10 of 12 (83%) were foreign born Disease diagnosed median 0.9 year after arrival in U.S. (MDR 3.7 years, TB in general 9 years) 7 of 18 (46.7%) born in Mexico (27% of MDR born in Mexico) Early in study most foreign born from Asia Later in study most were from Mexico Extensively Drug Resistant TB in California CID ;

12 Dye, Bull WHO 2009:87 TB/HIV: High Incidence Areas The dramatic increase in the number of people living i with HIV in the past decade d has fuelled the South African TB epidemic National estimates of HIV among TB patients now range from 60% to 80% The Asia and Pacific regions This region has more than half the global burden of TB and 12% of the global burden of HIV. Only 20% of persons with HIV know their status WHO and Stop TB HIV TB Newsletter, Oct

13 Why Do We Have Drug Resistance? Inadequate Treatment Incorrect regimen (lack of drugs or knowledge) Poor adherence Treatment Failure/Relapse with drug resistant TB Transmission of drug resistant TB 13

14 Which Patients are at Risk of Drug Resistant TB? Birth/ residence in country with high incidence of drug resistant TB U.S. residents who travel to high risk areas Exposure to patient with relapse or failure Prior treatment for TB Treatment failure Relapse in a patient not on DOT Poor adherence Clinical deterioration during 4 drug therapy NEW FACE OF TUBERCULOSIS Hookah pipe 21 yr old Russian college student Weight loss, fever, cough Abnormal CXR Community acquired pneumonia Continues to get worse BAL + M TB on culture Remains + after several weeks of RIPE CXR and patient are worse Contact Investigation College campus Hookah bar Model Club Face Book In Egypt at least 17% of TB Is transmitted Through smoking at a Hookah Bar 14

22 IF YOU DIAGNOSE XDR TB - THIS WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO CONSIDER MEDICAL CONSULTATION! BUT ANYTIME YOU HAVE A QUESTION IS A GREAT TIME How do WHO and National TB Program Policies Lead to High Rates of MDR TB? Global standard - diagnosis by smear only No cultures or susceptibility tests Drug resistance is not recognized Standardized treatment regimens This allows further development of resistance AMPLIFICATION OF RESISTANCE 22

23 INH Resistant TB Young male with INH resistance TB no prior therapy Treatment with RIPE x 2 months No response to treatment Referred when results of cultures identified First step Collect new cultures see where you are! Also request 2 nd line susceptibility tests 1 st culture INH, EMB, strep, kanamycin, amikacin, capreomycin 2 nd culture new Rifampin resistance PRE XDR TB! Aggressive new treatment regimen needed Pathogenesis of Drug Resistance How Does Drug Resistance Develop? 23

24 Treatment with a Single TB Drug Leads to Drug Resistance Spontaneous mutations result in small numbers of drug resistant bacilli Treatment with one drug -- (or one effective drug) kills all but resistant bacilli Drug resistant bacteria will survive eventually replace the susceptible population.

29 Primary MDR TB What now? Stop current therapy Repeat smears and cultures Want to determine if she is still susceptible to PZA MDR regimen, don t trust PZA, repeat susceptibility Despite improvement, new sputum culture quickly grows MTB Susceptibility pending. 29

30 Principles of Treatment and Management of MDR TB Treat patients with likely drug resistant disease with an adequate number of drugs to prevent emergence of further resistance (amplification of resistance). Use 5 active drugs initially Use more drugs if susceptibility tests pending 5 or > drugs associated with better outcomes Step 1 Begin with any First line agents to Which the isolate is Susceptible Add a Fluoroquinolone And an injectable Drug based on susceptibilities Use any available First-line drugs Pyrazinamide Ethambutol PLUS One of these Fluoroquinolones Levofloxacin Moxifloxacin PLUS One of these Injectable agents Amikacin Capreomycin Streptomycin t Kanamycin Step 2 Add 2 nd line drugs until you have 4-6 drugs to which isolate is susceptible (which have not been used previously) Step 3 Pick one or more of these Oral second line drugs Cycloserine Ethionamide PAS Consider use of these If there are not 4-6 drugs available consider 3 rd line in consult with MDRTB experts Third line drugs Imipenem Linezolid Macrolides Amoxicillin/Clavulanate Clofazamine BS 30

31 Principles of Treatment and Management of MDR TB Treat at least months after conversion of the culture to negative Continue injectable at least 6-12 months after conversion of culture to negative After culture conversion change to 3x/week therapy Shorter therapy for limited or primary TB International Standards for TB Control 3/24/2006 WHO guidelines for MDR TB 2009 Case Study: Immigrant from Nepal History: TB treated t for one year Reported normal exit CXR and cleared Coughing during flight Weight loss, malnutrition, (76 lbs) Sputum + for AFB Treatment: INH, rifampin, EMB, PZA plus Moxifloxacin Was this a good idea? 31

32 Recent Immigrant from Nepal Recent Immigrant From Nepal Culture positive for M TB Initial: resistant to INH, rifampin, EMB, PZA Susceptible to ethionamide, levofloxacin, amikacin Treatment: Amikacin, Moxi, EMB, Cycloserine Should we worry about fluoroquinolone resistance? 32

33 Recent Immigrant from Nepal Patient improves clinically Gains 25 pounds Cough and fever resolve, night sweats gone Smears and cultures convert at 12 weeks Last positive culture now Moxifloxacin resistant Repeat sensitivity on last positive culture to look for further resistance! Case Study 26 year old Vietnamese female diagnosed with smear and culture + M TB June 2008 Weight loss, hemoptysis, fever, short of breath, rapid heart rate Extensive bilateral cavitary infiltrates Started on standard TB treatment RIPE Cough, fever, and shortness of breath worsen Admitted to ICU end of July 33

34 Case Study Patient deteriorating Impending respiratory failure From an area of the world with not only MDR TB but XDR TB Physician adds moxifloxacin alone 7/27/08 8/1/08 nurse calls lab and they report possible resistance to everything I asked her to clarify what that meant No Time to Wait For Lab Results We have preliminary i MTB drug susceptibility test t results for patient - -. specimen # - -, DOC= We have repeated the test a second time. The test results indicate MDR TB to include resistance to INH, Streptomycin, Ethambutol and Rifampin. We are checking to determine if the culture is pure before we report out a preliminary report. The culture will be sent to - - this week for extended susceptibility testing and genotyping Sent 8/4/08 34

35 COMMUNICATION AND PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE LABORATORY AND PROVIDERS IS ESSENTIAL The healthcare providers knew the patient was getting worse The laboratory knew the specimen did not look like drug susceptible TB September
