* Referral to a specialized TB program
** Any first-line agents to which it is still susceptible

* First-line is generally a [[Fluoroquinolones|fluoroquinolone]], [[bedaquiline]], [[linezolid]], [[clofazimine]], and [[cycloserine]]

* Other regimens are any five drugs to which it is susceptible, in order of preference:
** An injectable: kanamycin, or other parenteral agent
 
  +
** Group A: [[fluoroquinolones]] (except [[ciprofloxacin]]), [[bedaquiline]], [[linezolid]]
** Other second-line agents, starting with ethionamide

** Group B: [[clofazimine]], [[cycloserine]] (or [[terizidone]])
* Followed by 12 months of a less intensive regimen (at least three effective drugs), for a total of at least 20 months

Background

Classification

  • Multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB): resistance to isoniazid and rifampicin
    • Rifampin monoresistance is quite rare, so MDR is usually inferred from rifampin resistance alone
  • Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB): resistance to at least isoniazid and rifampicin, and to any fluoroquinolone, and to any of the three second-line injectables
  • Totally drug-resistant tuberculosis (TDR-TB): not well-defined

Resistance Mechanisms

  • 90% of isoniazid resistance is from known mutations in either the katG or InhA genes
  • 95% of rifampin resistance is from known mutations in the rpoB gene

Risk Factors

  • The strongest predictor of MDR-TB is prior TB treatment (increases from 3% to 18% of cases)
  • Residence in country with higher rate of MDR-TB: India (8%/13% new/previous treatment), Philippines (12%/15%), China (7%/8%), Viet Nam (14%/10%), Pakistan (8%/7%), Ethiopia (6%/13%), Somalia (6%/8%), Haiti (unclear), Hong Kong (5%/7%), Afghanistan (unclear)
  • Exposure to person with MDR-TB
  • HIV infection
  • Other risk factors include younger age and more recent arrival from endemic country
