Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the early efficacy and safety of the regimens containing delamanid and linezolid in the treatment of rifampicin resistant tuberculosis(RR-TB).Methods A total of 47 patients diagnosed with RR-TB at Public Health Clinical Center of Chengdu from August 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled,including 22 cases(46.8%)of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis(MDR-TB),8 cases(17.0%)of RR-TB,and 17 cases(36.2%)of pre-extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis(pre-XDR-TB).All patients were treated with a regimen based on delamanid and linezolid.The efficacy and safety were evaluated at 24 weeks of treatment.Results Among the 47 patients,46(97.9%)completed 24 weeks of treatment and 1(2.1%)was lost to follow-up.At 24 weeks,the sputum culture conversion rate was 100%in the 43 patients with positive baseline sputum culture.The median conversion time was 2(2,8)weeks.Imaging examination showed absorption in 46 patients(97.9%).Overall,40 patients(85.1%)experienced varying degrees of adverse events(AEs)within 24 weeks.Eleven patients(23.4%)experienced AEs possibly related to delamanid,mainly including QTcF interval prolongation(12.8%),gastrointestinal reactions(8.5%),dizziness(2.1%),headache(2.1%),and allergy(2.1%).Six patients permanently discontinued delamanid due to AEs including gastrointestinal reactions(6.4%),prolonged QTcF interval(2.1%),severe dizziness(2.1%),and drug allergy(2.1%).Patients with low baseline CD4+T lymphocyte counts(OR=0.991,95%CI:0.984-0.999)were more likely to experience delamanid-related AEs.Thirty patients(63.8%)experienced AEs possibly related to linezolid,including myelosuppression(55.3%),peripheral neuropathy(6.4%),optic neuritis occurred(2.1%),and allergy(2.1%).Three patients(6.4%)discontinued linezolid permanently due to severe anemia,peripheral neuropathy,and allergy.Conclusions The treatment regimens containing delamanid and linezolid for RR-TB showed a high sputum culture conversion rate and good tolerance at 24 weeks.Attention should be paid to gastrointestinal reactions and cellular immunity during treatment.
