MDR-/XDR-TB: is the white plague spectrum back?

Q1: the 2 previous slides show that

1) M/XDR-TB is dangerous like a wild animal

2) M/XDR-TB is a clinical nightmare

3) M/XDR-TB is a death sentence

4) M/XDR-TB is a problem in Africa

Aims

• Demonstrate that M/XDR-TB is a real (global) threat to TB control, and urgent action is needed

• Call for more research on key priorities

• Advocate for the collaboration of European Chest Physicians

Q3: MDR is

1) Difficult to select

2) Is mainly due to patient’s mistakes

3) Is mainly due to sub-standard drugs

4) Is a multi-factorial man-made phenomenon

Examples of implications of introduction of Genotype MTBDRplus

Uzbekistan: 17% MDR among new cases, 45% among PT cases, 23% PT among all SS+ cases

• Before Hain: culture, 1st line DST for all SS+patients n= 6600, then 2nd line DST for R resistant cases n=1700

• After Hain: Hain test for all 6600 patients, followed by culture+ 1st+2nd line DST for H and/or R res cases n= 3400

• Advantages: – Early diagnosis and MDR treatment for R resistant cases (1700)– Early diagnosis and adequate treatment for H resistant cases (1700)– 50 % reduction of laboratory workload for culture/DST– Reduction in time to diagnosis of XDR TB

The STOP TB Strategy – 2010

1. Pursue high-quality DOTS expansion and enhancementa. Secure political commitment, with adequate and sustained financing b. Ensure early case detection, and diagnosis through quality-assured bacteriologyc. Provide standardised treatment with supervision, and patient supportd. Ensure effective drug supply and management e. Monitor and evaluate performance and impact

2. Address TB-HIV, MDR-TB, and the needs of poor and vulnerable populationsa. Scale–up collaborative TB/HIV activitiesb. Scale-up prevention and management of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB)c. Address the needs of TB contacts, and poor and vulnerable populations

3. Contribute to health system strengthening based on primary health care a. Help improve health policies, human resources development, financing, supplies, service delivery and informationb. Strengthen infection control in health services, other congregate settings and householdsc. Upgrade laboratory networks, and implement the Practical Approach to Lung Health (PAL) d. Adapt approaches from other fields and sectors, and foster action on the social determinants of health

4. Engage all care providersa. Involve all public, voluntary, corporate and private providers through Public-Private Mix (PPM) approachesb. Promote use of the International Standards for Tuberculosis Care (ISTC)

5. Empower people with TB, and communities through partnershipa. Pursue advocacy, communication and social mobilizationb. Foster community participation in TB care, prevention and health promotionc. Promote use of the Patients' Charter for Tuberculosis Care

6. Enable and promote researcha. Conduct programme-based operational research, and introduce new tools into practiceb. Advocate for and participate in research to develop new diagnostics, drugs and vaccines

Conclusions

• M/XDR-TB is ubiquitous• In some settings its prevalence is high enough to compromise TB control in absence of prompt action• Recent advances in new diagnostics needs to be complemented by parallel development of new drugs and vaccines• Chest physicians have a key role in ensuring prevention of development of further MDR-TB by ensuring early diagnosis and effective treatment of newly diagnosed, pan-susceptible, TB cases
