success rate, which is lower thanthe treatment success rate of MDR-TB with bacillary resistance to all first-line drugs (15). Another study showed the risk of death to be five times higher in patients with XDR-TB than in patients with MDR-TB (16). The effect of XDR-TB on long-term survival has not been determined. About 30,000 patients worldwide now have XDR tuberculosis (that fails to respond to any of the four antibiotic categories in use at present). the Nix-TB trial has shown a cure rate of over 90%
Treatment of tuberculosis (TB) caused by drug-resistant organisms should be done by, or INH is not necessary, given the high cure rate with this regimen. 25 Mar 2008 The average mortality rate for XDR-TB patients is just over 50 percent, but is closer to 85 percent for patients co-infected with HIV, according to 23 Mar 2017 Cure rates for drug resistant TB are poor and people can remain infectious and at risk of spreading the disease. Improved diagnostic tests are 28 Oct 2019 Our findings highlight the importance of HIV coinfection, high preexisting rates of drug-resistant TB, human migration, and pathoadaptive
By the end of 2017 XDR had been reported by 127 Member States of the World Health Organisation. Combining the data, the average proportion of MDR-TB cases with XDR-TB was 8.5%. The best estimate was higher than those based on data available for 2016 (6.2% in 2016, 9.5% in 2015, 9.7% in 2014). Fully 60 percent of the patients with XDR-TB were successfully treated and cured, a cure rate only slightly lower than the 66 percent achieved with the other MDR-TB patients. The study adds urgency and hope to the debate about drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis, said Carole Mitnick, the study’s lead author and a PIH research associate. Current therapy for XDR tuberculosis requires up to 40 pills to be taken every day for up to 2 years, but still cures only 34% of these patients. The main findings of our study were a high mortality rate (42%) and a low rate of successful treatment outcomes (22%) for XDR TB patients after completion of 24 months of treatment in a setting with a high incidence of HIV. In 2017, 10 million people fell ill from active TB and 1.6 million died. It is an airborne disease that can be spread by coughing or sneezing. There are more than half a million cases of MDR-TB annually, with about 6% of those cases being XDR-TB. Current WHO figures report that 127 countries have reported cases of XDR-TB. In 2018, the WHO reported that the treatment success rate for XDR-TB was 34% for the 2015 cohort, compared to 55% for MDR/RR-TB (2015 cohort), 77% for HIV-associated TB (2016 cohort), and 82% for TB (2016 cohort).
