New study aims to uncover hidden TB drug resistance
NCT ID NCT07169149
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study will test 250 people with tuberculosis (TB) to see how common drug resistance is. Using special rapid tests called GeneXpert, researchers will look for resistance to key TB drugs like Rifampicin. They also want to find out if things like diabetes or drug addiction make resistance more likely. The goal is to help doctors pick the right treatment faster.
