The game plan for the evaluation of high dose rifampicin in PanACEA HR1 HR2 MAMS 1 MAMS 2 HR Phase III
HIGHRIF 1 (HR1) study design
Safety One control group with standard 10 mg/kg RIF (N=8) 5 consecutive arms of each 15 patients: – 20 mg RIF/kg – 25 mg RIF/kg – 30 mg RIF/kg – 35 mg RIF/kg – 40 mg RIF/kg All safe and well tolerated Boeree et al, AJRCCM, 191, , 2015
PK
CFU
HighRIF2 – study design, N= 50 patients per arm
Results No differences in safety and tolerabilty in the three groups 600, 900, 1200 mg PK: successful increase Bactericidal effect: no difference
High-Dose Rifampin, SQ109 and Moxifloxacin for Treating TB: The PanACEA MAMS-TB Trial Martin Boeree, Radboudumc, Nijmegen on behalf of the PanACEA consortium 25th February 2015, CROI, Seattle
Study Design: Randomisation All drugs at standard doses unless otherwise stated 8 weeks12 weeks26 weeks Control Isoniazid Rifampicin 10mg/kg Pyrazinamide Ethambutol Q Isoniazid Rifampicin 10mg/kg Pyrazinamide SQ109 20RQ Isoniazid Rifampicin 20mg/kgRifampicin 10mg/kg Pyrazinamide SQ109 20RM Isoniazid Rifampicin 20mg/kgRifampicin 10mg/kg Pyrazinamide Moxifloxacin 35R Isoniazid Rifampicin 35mg/kgRifampicin 10mg/kg Pyrazinamide Ethambutol
1 Analysis has been adjusted for: HIV status; baseline GeneXpert CT; centre; baseline culture (using TTP). Time to stable culture conversion on MGIT liquid media over 12 weeks
Kaplan Meier curve for time to culture conversion in liquid MGIT media 1 treatment failure in the Q arm, relapse data are currently analyzed
Proportion of patients experiencing adverse events (AEs) *Hepatic AEs resulting in a change of treatment, pending final safety review. 4 (6%)
PK MAMS
Conclusion High-Dose Rifampicin is well tolerated 20 mg/kg is probably too low 35 mg/kg has an increased effect in culture conversion There is a difference in culture conversion in liquid and solid media In the MAMS trial the arms containing SQ109 had no increased effect in this design
