Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To study the optimal timing to initiate antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected patients who are receiving tuberculosis treatment between at 4 weeks and at 12 weeks after tuberculosis treatment by comparing the composite end point of death rate, hospitalization rate and adverse drug reactions at week 48, 96 and 144.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The growing epidemic of HIV poses a serious public health threat in many countries, including Thailand. Mortality is clearly reduced in HIV and tuberculosis (TB) co-infected patients who initiate antiretroviral therapy (ART) after the treatment of TB, but the optimal timing to initiate ART is one of the major concern for patients concurrently receiving both therapies. To date, the prospective, randomized, control trial to study the optimal timing to initiate ART in the patients is still limited. In addition, the current recommendation to start ART in patients co-infected with HIV and TB is still based on expert opinions. Here, the investigators plan to investigate the optimal timing to initiate antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected patients who are receiving tuberculosis treatment between at 4 weeks and at 12 weeks after tuberculosis treatment by comparing the composite end point of death rate, hospitalization rate and adverse drug reactions at week 48, 96 and 144 at Bamrasnaradura Infectious Diseases Institute, Ministry of Public Health, Nonthaburi, Thailand.
