First seen Mar 01, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study aims to see if new, simple swab tests (from the mouth or tongue) can accurately detect tuberculosis (TB) when used in community settings, like mobile clinics or camps. It will involve 60,000 people in Bangladesh, Cameroon, and Nigeria who are at higher risk for TB. The goal is to make TB testing easier and more accessible for people who have trouble providing a sputum sample or cannot easily reach a clinic.
