Official title

A Phase 2, Open-label, Randomized Controlled Trial to Assess the Safety, Bactericidal Activity, and Pharmacokinetics of Nicotinamide in Combination With Bedaquiline, Pretomanid, and Linezolid in Adults With Drug-susceptible Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Overview

The purpose of this study is to determine if nicotinamide in combination with bedaquiline, pretomanid, and linezolid, is safe and effective in treating drug-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis.

Interventions

  • Drug Bedaquiline, pretomanid, linezolid
    Group 1 (Approximately 55 participants), Combination of NAM 1500 mg twice daily (BID) with bedaquiline (200 mg once daily \[QD\]), pretomanid (200 mg QD), and linezolid (600 mg QD), 56 days
  • Drug Bedaquiline, pretomanid, linezolid
    Group 2 (Approximately 55 participants): Combination of NAM 2500 mg BID with bedaquiline (200 mg QD), pretomanid (200 mg QD), and linezolid (600 mg QD), 56 days
  • Drug Bedaquiline, pretomanid, linezolid
    Group 3 (active control; approximately 55 participants): Combination of bedaquiline (200 mg QD), pretomanid (200 mg QD), and linezolid (600 mg QD), 56 days
  • Dietary supplement Nicotinamide (NAM)
    Group 1 (Approximately 55 participants), Combination of NAM 2500 mg twice daily (BID) with bedaquiline (200 mg once daily \[QD\]), pretomanid (200 mg QD), and linezolid (600 mg QD), 56 days

Primary outcome measures

  • Bactericidal Activity [Time frame: From randomization through Day 64 (EOT)]
  • Safety: SAEs [Time frame: From randomization through Day 64 (EOT)]
  • Safety: TEAEs [Time frame: From randomization through Day 64 (EOT)]
  • Safety: AESIs [Time frame: From randomization through Day 64 (EOT)]
  • Safety: TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation [Time frame: From randomization through Day 64 (EOT)]
  • Safety: TEAEs leading to NAM dose reduction [Time frame: From randomization through Day 64 (EOT)]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
  • Bactericidal Activity [Time frame: Randomization through Day 64 (EOT)]
  • Bactericidal activity [Time frame: Randomization through Day 56 (EOTx)]
  • Evaluate the PK of NAM when administered with BPaL in Group 1 and 2 [Time frame: Day 1 and Day 14]
