Presentation OutlineDefinition of MDR TBEpidemiology of MDR TBGenesis of MDRMechanism of resistanceTreatmentChemoprophylaxis for MDR TB exposure
Definition of MDR TB1950s-1970s:
M. tb resistant to INH, streptomycin and/or PAS1980s-current:
M. tb resistant to at least INH and Rifampin
Why INH and RifampinMost potent and bacteriocidalTb can be treated effectively with INH+Rif aloneMono-resistance to one of them can be treated effectively with a regimen containing the other agent with very low failure rate (2.5-5%)Failure rate when INH+Rif resistant is 44% in non-HIV and 70% in HIV patientsDuration required for cure doubles to triples.

Genesis of MDR TBResistance is a man-made amplification of a natural phenomenon.Inadequate drug delivery is main cause of secondary drug resistance.Secondary drug resistance is the main cause of primary drug resistance due to transmission of resistant strains.MDR due to spontaneous mutations is not possible as the genes encoding resistance for anti TB are unlinked.
Clinical factors promoting resistanceDelayed diagnosis and isolationInappropriate drug regimen.
Inadequate initial therapyIncomplete course of treatmentInappropriate treatment modificationsAdding single drug to a failing regimenInappropriate use of chemoprophylaxisPoor adherence and incomplete F/UFailure to isolate MDR TB patientsFailure to employ DOTOver the counter anti TBFaked drugs
Mechanism of ResistanceTB specific drugs
INH, PZA, ETH
Antibiotics with activity against TB
RIFAminogycosidesFlouroquinolones
Mechanism of resistanceINH
Chromosomally mediatedLoss of catalase/peroxidaseMutation in mycolic acid synthesisRegulators of peroxide response
Mechanism of resistanceRifampin
Reduced binding to RNA polymeraseClusters of mutations at Rifampin Resistance Determining Region (RRDR)
Reduced Cell wall permeability
Treatment of MDR TBFactors determining Success
Culture of MDR TBReliable susceptibilityReliable history of previous drug regimensProgram to assure delivery of prescribed drugs (DOT)Correct choice of modified treatment regimenReliable follow up

New Chemotherapeutic AgentsNot many. Low interest from industryDerivatives of Rifamycin
Rifabutin: Sensitive subset of Rifampin resistant strainsRifapentine: Extended half-life but more mono-resistance to rifamycinsKRM-1648. benzoxazinorifamycin. In vitro and animal models.New flouroquinolones
Gatifloxacin, Moxifloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacinNitroimidazoles
related to metronidazole. May work better against latent bacilliAvoiding pro-drug problems
ChemoprophylaxisDeterminants of intervention
