  Purpose

The study is an open label, multicenter, randomized (three arms: DOT (standard control), SAT, SAT with SMS reminders) controlled clinical trial. The trial is conducted in patients diagnosed with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) who are recommended for treatment. The primary objective is to evaluate adherence to a three-month (12-dose) regimen of weekly rifapentine and isoniazid (3RPT/INH) given by directly observed therapy (DOT) compared to self-administered therapy (SAT). The secondary objectives:

  • To compare the treatment completion rates between participants randomized to SAT without reminders versus SAT with weekly SMS reminders
  • To evaluate the timing of doses and patterns of adherence to once weekly RPT/INH among participants who complete treatment and those who discontinue therapy prior to completion.
  • To determine the availability and acceptability of using SMS reminders among all patients consenting to participate in the study.
  • To determine the toxicity and tolerability by comparing the rates of any drug-related grade 3 or 4 adverse events or death between the DOT arm and the SAT arms (both combined and individually)
  • To compare the frequency, timing, and causes for failure to complete treatment between the DOT arm and the SAT arms
  • To collect patient-specific cost data related to the 3 treatment arms
  • To describe the pattern of antituberculosis drug resistance among Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains cultured from participants who develop active TB.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Treatment completion rate. [ Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Treatment completion rates between participants randomized to DOT vs SAT without reminders and DOT versus SAT with weekly SMS reminders. Treatment completion is defined as taking at least 90% of the doses (11/12 doses of each drug) within 16 weeks of treatment initiation.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Treatment completion rates between the DOT arm and the SAT arm with SMS reminders [ Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Treatment completion rates between the DOT arm and the SAT arm without SMS reminders. [ Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Treatment completion rates between the SAT arm with SMS reminders and the SAT arm without SMS reminders. [ Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Rates of treatment discontinuation by category. [ Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

    Categories of treatment discontinuation include:

    • due to adverse events
    • due to patient choice
    • due to inability to locate patient
    • other

  • Rates of SMS reminders utilization. [ Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Rates of any drug-related grade 3, 4, or 5 adverse events between the DOT arm and the SAT arms (both combined and individually) [ Time Frame: Up to 20 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Rates and timing of treatment discontinuations between the DOT arm and the SAT arms (both combined and individually). [ Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

    This includes discontinuations due to:

    • non-adherence
    • any adverse event (AE)
    • a diagnosis of active TB
    • other reasons

  • Cost of treatment (in USD or QALY) associated with adverse events between the DOT arm and the SAT arms (both combined and individually). [ Time Frame: Up to 20 weeks from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Rates of antituberculosis drug resistance among Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains cultured from patients who develop active TB between the DOT arm and the SAT arms (both combined and individually). [ Time Frame: up to 2 years from start of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
