CoVPN 3008- “UBUNTU TB SUB STUDY"; Tuberculosis case finding at the completion of the Ubuntu clinical trial
REFNo: HS4778ES
Overall objective: To identify individuals with undiagnosed TB, including subclinical TB, so they can be linked to care; and investigate blood biomarkers associated with TB diagnosis, particularly in populations living with HIV and other co-morbidities.
Primary Objectives:
• Identify participants with previously undiagnosed tuberculosis (TB) disease, including subclinical TB.
• Identify demographic and other participant characteristics that are associated with the diagnosis of TB, including subclinical TB.
• Investigate peripheral blood biomarkers associated with diagnosis of TB, including subclinical TB.
• Follow participants with confirmed TB for six months and identify those that remain microbiologically positive for TB.
Exploratory objectives
• Evaluate the tongue swabs as a diagnostic tool for TB.
• Determine the clinical relevance of trace results from Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra in TB diagnosis/management.
• Investigate the potential of an artificial intelligence-powered CAD system for TB diagnosis using chest radiographs.
• Assess associations of TB treatment with clinical outcomes and TB disease status.
• Evaluate the effect of TB treatment on TB-associated peripheral blood biomarkers measured after at the six-month follow-up time point.
• Undertake analyses aimed at improving our understanding of different TB screening or diagnostic strategies, and analyses at enhancing our understanding of TB immunology and pathophysiology, in the context of clinical and subclinical TB.
