8 Low TB transmission settings most TB disease arises from latent infection treatment of latent TB is central to TB elimination INH x 9 months is long, completion rates are poor shorter regimens preferable if effective, safe

9 Rifapentine+INH vs. INH Sterling NEJM 2011;365:2155

10 Rifapentine+INH vs. INH: results to 33 months Sterling NEJM 2011;365:2155 non-inferior 9H: 15 TB cases 0.16/100pyrs 3RpH: 7 TB cases 0.07/100pyrs

12 Shorter preventive regimens under investigation rifampicin x 4m vs. INH x9m – adults, TST+ or IGRA+ (excluding HIV+ on incompatible ART) – currently recruiting, high and low burden settings rifapentine/INH daily x1m vs. INH daily x 9m – HIV+, TST≥5mm OR IGRA+ OR resident in high burden country – self-administered – started recruitment 2012

24 P. Godfrey-Faussett, H. Ayles, N. Beyers Southern Africa Map Source: Google Earth October 2007 Zambia Western Cape 0 30 Km 15 Zambia 0 400 Km 200 A community randomized trial of two interventions delivered to ~1,200,000 people while strengthening the existing health systems

25 ZAMSTAR: two interventions Total population 962,655 24 communities Enhanced case finding (12 vs. 12):  community mobilisation  open access to sputum microscopy

26 ZAMSTAR: two interventions Total population 962,655 6 communities per arm Enhanced case finding (12 vs. 12):  community mobilisation  open access to sputum microscopy Household intervention (12. vs. 12)  TB patient as entry point to household  Screening for TB and HIV  Referral for treatment and care

27 Household intervention reduced TB prevalence and transmission

29 TB preventive therapy: high TB transmission settings shorter regimens desirable but is longer better?

30 Botswana: IPT 36 vs. 6m Samandari Lancet 2011;377:1588

31 36m vs. 6m IPT: 43% less TB during trial Cumulative TB incidence 6H36H In trial n=1995 6H 36H Samandari Lancet 2011;377:1588 43% reduction in TB p=0.047

36 Thibela TB South African gold mines: TB case notifications <5000 per 100,000 per year Novel TB control strategies needed Thibela TB: cluster-randomised trial of community- wide IPT Hostels +Mine shaft Cluster =

37 Targeted vs. community- wide IPT High TB risk: TB contact HIV+ Offered IPT: High TB risk: everyone Offered IPT: everyone

38 Thibela TB Cluster-randomised trial of community-wide IPT x 9m in 15 gold mines in South Africa (approx 80,000 people) No impact on TB incidence or prevalence at population level Churchyard CROI 2012; Fielding CROI 2012

39 Thibela TB: individual analysis Baseline survey (n=15,609, 15 clusters) Employees (n=14,005, 15 clusters) Control clusters (n=6,397, 7 clusters ) Intervention clusters (n=7,608, 8 clusters) Control arm (n=6,263, 7 clusters) IPT arm (Started IPT) (n=4,646, 8 clusters) Excluded Did not start IPT (n=2,963) Excluded TB / IPT (n=134) Excluded Not employees (n=1,604) Fielding CROI 2012

40 Thibela TB: duration of IPT effect at individual level 63% reduction in TB incidence during 9m of intervention Fielding CROI 2012 0-9m9-18m>18m TB inc rate: control IPT 2.91 1.10 2.71 2.34 2.70 2.42 adjusted RR0.370.940.79

41 Why is IPT not durable in southern Africa? ? High rates of TB reinfection – very difficult to measure – consistent with molecular epidemiology data from mines and elsewhere in southern Africa

42 Why is IPT not durable in southern Africa? ? high rate of reinfection – would explain why RH/RpH no better than IPT in Soweto

43 Why is IPT not durable in southern Africa? ? but if most TB in HIV+ is reinfection, why does TB incidence remain low among those TST neg at enrolment? Samandari Lancet 2011; 377:1588

45 Why is IPT not durable in southern Africa? ? High rates of TB reinfection – consistent with molecular epi data from mines and elsewhere in southern Africa – very difficult to measure ?IPT does not cure latent infection – very difficult to measure – consistent with data from mouse models

46 Activity of TMC207 (J) in a mouse model of treatment for latent TB infection Rx duration to prevent 50% relapse H, isoniazid; R, rifampin; P, rifapentine; J, TMC207 H Months 123456 0 R RH PH 1/7 J Zhang et al, Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2011; 184:732 thanks to Eric Neurmberger for this slide Months post-infection Lung log 10 CFU Disease course in untreated mice

47 If reinfection, priority is to reduce transmission – find and treat people with infectious TB – (which we need to do anyway) If lack of cure with IPT alone, need better "preventive" regimens – particularly where TB transmission is low – shorter regimens operationally much easier to implement probably a bit of both either way, data support continuous IPT for HIV+ Implications of limited IPT durability

53 Thibela TB Community-wide IPT did not improve TB control in South African gold mines What will it take? HostelsMine shaft Cluster

54 TB prevention in gold mines: what will it take? a) IPT for 9 months b) continuous IPT c) ART d) reducing treatment delay e) more sensitive diagnostics f) none of the above g) all of the above

55 Number of cases/100,000/year (true incidence) Reduce treatment delay Maximise ART coverage Better diagnostics Better preventive therapy Thibela TB modelling: need combination TB prevention Vynnycky, Sumner, Cox, White SA TB conference

56 Know your TB epidemic, know your TB response Conclusions

57 Low transmission settings Rifapentine / INH: simpler, shorter – awaiting data on effectiveness for HIV positive people

58 High TB transmission settings IPT has limited durability in Southern Africa continuous IPT for HIV+ people Combination TB prevention earlier treatment via better diagnostics improving systems to minimise treatment delay maximising ART coverage optimising TB preventive therapy
