Breakthrough trial aims to slash TB treatment time in half

NCT ID NCT06441006

Summary

This international trial is testing whether shorter antibiotic regimens (13-24 weeks) can work as well as the current standard 24-week treatment for drug-resistant tuberculosis. Researchers will enroll 400 participants with specific drug-resistant TB strains to compare different treatment durations. The goal is to find the shortest effective treatment that maintains cure rates while reducing side effects and treatment burden.
