Do we need to test for isoniazid resistance?
No conflict of interest

Context
• Xpert rapidly being rolled• Xpert includes RIF but not INH resistance testing• INH resistance is much more common than MDR• Treatment of INH resistant MTB with 1st line
drugs is associated with increase failure/relapse rates and increased development of MDR

???
Should the next generation of molecular tests include detection of
isoniazid resistance to prevent- A further increase in INH resistance
- INH resistance driving MDR resistance

Model
• Steady state (60 years ago)
• Rise of MDR and INH over 60 years to levels reported today (2.1%, 15%) for epidemiological setting like India
• Standard diagnostic, calibrated to CDR (~75%)• Molecular testing: 95% sensitivity• MDR Rx at baseline only for pts failing 1st line Rx
WHO Global report 2012
Equilibrium Year 0 Implementation of tests
Scenarios with molecular test
1. TB detection only2. Rif detection3. INH +RIF detection
Low coverage: 15%, 25%, 30% > new, relapse/default, failureHigh coverage: 50%, 80%, 100% > new, relapse/default, failure
WHO Global report 2012
Conclusions
• INH testing in addition to rifampin resistance detection does not have a substantial effect – on INH resistance– or MDR-TB
• Testing for rifampin resistance in contrast has a sizeable effect on MDR– Idealized scenario– Reduction in prevalent (chronic) cases early on– Reduction in time to diagnosis as MDR
Limitations
• Simplified model• Not including HIV limits generalizability• Not considering IPT > limited use, unclear
impact on resistance• Not considering different health sectors• Not accounting for possible beneficial effects
of detection of rifampin monoresistance
