Popis: | SETTING: The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the inclusion of pyrazinamide (PZA) in treatment regimens for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) unless resistance has been confirmed. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between PZA susceptibility and MDR-TB treatment outcome among patients treated with a PZA-containing regimen and whether the duration of the intensive phase of the PZA-containing regimen affected treatment outcome. DESIGN: We conducted a retrospective cohort study including all eligible MDR-TB patients starting treatment in 2003-2013 in the TB programme in Karakalpakstan, Uzbekistan. PZA drug susceptibility testing (DST) using liquid culture was performed, and outcomes were classified according to the WHO 2013 definitions. RESULTS: Of 2446 MDR-TB patients included, 832 (34.0%) had an available baseline PZA DST result, 612 (73.6%) of whom were PZA-resistant. We found no association between treatment success and PZA susceptibility (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.86, 95%CI 0.51-1.44, P = 0.6) in patients treated with PZA. Furthermore, among patients with no baseline PZA DST result, no evidence was seen of an association between treatment success and PZA treatment duration (aOR 0.86, 95%CI 0.49-1.51, P = 0.6). CONCLUSION: Treatment of MDR-TB with a standard PZA regimen does not appear to improve treatment outcomes, regardless of PZA susceptibility or duration of treatment. |
