An Exploratory Study of TMC207 in Japanese Participants With Pulmonary Multi-Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB)

NCT ID: NCT02365623

Last Updated: 2025-02-03

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 6 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2015-02-18
• Study Completion Date: 2018-11-08

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore safety and efficacy of TMC207 administered as part of a multi-drug regimen for 24 to 48-week treatment in Japanese participants with pulmonary multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), and to evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) of TMC207 and its primary metabolite M2.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label (everyone know the study intervention), single-arm, multicenter trial to explore safety, efficacy and PK of TMC207 in Japanese participants with pulmonary MDR-TB. The participants will receive TMC207 for 24 weeks in combination with individualized BR drugs selected by the Investigator on Day -1. Participants will primarily be assessed for sputum culture conversion at Week 24. Safety will be monitored throughout the study.

Conditions

Tuberculosis, Multidrug-Resistant

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

TMC207 (bedaquiline) + Background Regimen (BR)

Participants will receive TMC207 (bedaquiline) 400 milligram (mg) as 4\*100 mg tablets once daily 2 weeks (14 days). From Week 3, participants will receive 200 mg (2 tablets) TMC207 (bedaquiline) 3 times a week up to Week 24 along with background regimen (BR). Based on the discussion with the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA), the extension of 24-week TMC207 treatment with BR drugs may occur up to Week 48, under certain circumstances, such that many BR drugs which are susceptible at the beginning of the Treatment Phase show resistance during the Treatment Phase. After TMC207 is stopped, the BR will be continued up to 78 weeks after conversion or 102 weeks after day 1 (what happens first).

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

TMC207 (bedaquiline)

Intervention Type: DRUG

TMC207 (bedaquiline): Participants will receive TMC207 (bedaquiline) 400 milligram (mg) as 4\*100 mg tablets once daily 2 weeks (14 days) followed by 200 mg (2 tablets) 3 times a week up to Week 24 along with background regimen (BR). Based on the discussion with the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA), the extension of 24-week TMC207 treatment with BR drugs may occur up to Week 48, under certain circumstances, such that many BR drugs which are susceptible at the beginning of the Treatment Phase show resistance during the Treatment Phase.

Background Regimen (BR)

Intervention Type: DRUG

Participants will receive anti-bacterial tuberculosis drugs (pyrazinamide \[PZA\], ethambutol \[EB, EMB\], streptomycin \[SM\], kanamycin \[KM, KAN\], enviomycin \[EVM\], ethionamide \[TH\], cycloserine \[CS\], para-aminosalicylic acid \[PAS\], amikacin \[AMK\], levofloxacin \[LVFX\] and other fluoroquinolone. Other drugs are used less commonly, such as amoxicillin-clavulanate, linezolid and clofazimine based on Investigator's decision twice a week from Day 1 up to 78 weeks after conversion or 102 weeks after day 1 (what happens first).
