Unit 11: Drug Resistance
and MDR-TB
Botswana National Tuberculosis Programme
Manual Training for Medical Officers
Objectives
At the end of this unit, participants will be able to:
• Describe the development of drug resistance
• Select and manage patients with mono-, multiand poly-drug resistant TB
• Identify when to perform sputum culture and
sensitivity tests and whom to refer for
subsequent categories of treatment
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-2
Drug Resistance Definitions
• Drug Resistance: isolates of M. tuberculosis
resistant to 1 or more anti-TB drugs
• Primary Resistance
• Any patient with resistance and <1 month of ATT
• Often contacts of drug resistant patients infected with
DR strain
• Acquired Resistance
• Development of in vitro resistance to anti-TB drugs
during TB therapy
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-3
Types of Resistance
• Confirmed mono-resistance: resistance to one
first line drug
• Confirmed poly-resistance: resistance to two or
more first line drugs, but not both isoniazid and
rifampicin
• Confirmed multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB):
resistance to at least both isoniazid and
rifampicin
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-4
Multi-Drug Resistant (MDR) TB
• Resistance to both isoniazid and rifampicin
• Loss of 2 most powerful TB drugs
• Disastrous for patient and community
• Category IV regimens
•
•
•
•
•
Less effective
Longer duration
More side-effects
Much more expensive +++
Lower chances of cure

MDR in Botswana
In 2005, MDR made up:
• 0.8% of new cases, 10.0% of retreatment
cases
In 1999, MDR made up:
• 0.5% of new cases and 9.0% of retreatment
cases

XDR-TB:
Extensively Drug Resistant TB
Tuberculosis resistant to:
INH & rifampicin
+
A fluoroquinolone
(ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin)
+
One or more of the second
line injectable ATT drugs:
kanamycin OR amikacin OR capreomycin

Slide 11-7
XDR-TB in South Africa
Study in 2006, Kwazulu-Natal:
• 544 TB patients suspected to have resistance; 221
had MDR-TB
• 53 of the 221 (24%) met criteria for XDR-TB
• 44 of the 53 were tested for HIV
• All were positive; 15 on ARVs
• 52 of 53 patients died within 25 days of suspecting
resistance– suggests high virulence

Slide 11-8
Risk Factors for Resistance (1)
Any patient with prior history of TB:
• Failure of first-line regimen
• Failure of re-treatment regimen and chronic TB
cases
• Patients who remain sputum smear-positive at two or
three months of short course chemotherapy
• Patients who revert from smear-negative to smearpositive at the end of the intensive phase
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-9
Risk Factors for Resistance (2)
•
•
•
•
•
Exposure to a known MDR-TB case
Poor adherence, malabsorption
Cavitary disease (high burden of organisms)
Inadequate treatment regimen
Administering fewer than the recommended
number of drugs (e.g., INH/RIF only during
intensive phase)
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-10
Suspected Drug Resistance
• When treatment is unsuccessful
• Relapse
• Treatment failure
• Return after default
• If patient is a contact of a patient with known
resistance
• Patient is a suspect while waiting for results
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-11
Confirmed Drug Resistance
• Confirmed by culture and drug sensitivity testing
(C/DST)
• Culture takes approximately 28-42 days; DST an
additional 28-42
• Culture and DST are indicated for ALL patients with
suspected drug resistance
• MDR-TB is a laboratory diagnosis
• All patients started on Category II regimen must
have culture and DST obtained
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-12
Confirmed MDR-TB
• All patients with confirmed MDR should be
referred for initiation and follow-up to:
• North: Nyangabgwe Referral Hospital,
Francistown
• South: Princess Marina Hospital, Gaborone
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-13
Development of Drug Resistance (1)
Two steps: Mutation and Selection
1. Mutation
•
•
Mutations conferring drug resistance occur in
individual organisms at a very low rate
With high numbers of organisms (lung cavity)
small populations resistant to each drug will exist
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-14
Development of Drug Resistance (2)
2. Selection
•
•
Organisms with resistant mutations to a
particular drug will have an advantage over
susceptible organisms when all are exposed to
that drug
The resistant organisms can outgrow the
susceptible organisms
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-15
Spontaneous Mutations to
Anti-Tuberculosis Medications
• Ethambutol and pyrazinamide: 1 in every 100,000 cell
divisions
• Isoniazid and streptomycin: 1 in every 1,000,000 cell
divisions
• Rifampicin: 1 in every 100,000,000 cell divisions
• Spontaneous development of MDR-TB bacilli is extremely
rare:
• 1 in every 100,000,000,000,000 (1014) cell divisions
• The product of the two probabilities of isoniazid and
rifampicin mutation

Common Forms of
Cross-Resistance
•
•
•
•
•
All rifamycins
Low-level INH resistance and ethionamide
Ethionamide and prothionamide
Amikacin and kanamycin
Fluoroquinolones (cipro and oflox– some next
generation FQL, such as Lfx and Mfx, may
retain activity)
• Do not use drugs for which resistance crosses
over
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-20
Prevention of Drug Resistance
• Provide high enough concentrations of drugs to kill
susceptible organisms
• Use drug combinations that are able to kill the small
numbers of organisms resistant to one or another of
the drugs
• Potent regimen (bactericidal, R and H)
• Multi-drug therapy for drugs to protect each other
from acquiring resistance
• Correct prescription, standardised regimens
• Adherence
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-21
Diagnosing MDR-TB
• Diagnosed through culture and DST of
specimens, usually sputum, from TB patients
• Obtain drug susceptibility testing for TB
patients that have risk factors for MDR-TB
• Chronic TB cases are especially at risk of
having MDR-TB
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-22
Pre-treatment Evaluation and
Care for MDR-TB Patients
• Initial labs include:
• HIV test, sputum smear microscopy, culture &
DST, pregnancy test
• Baseline renal, thyroid, and liver function tests
• Care can be hospital-based, clinic-based, or
community-based, but MUST have
uninterrupted quality drug supply
• Care should be given through multidisciplinary
team of providers

health problems
• Injectable in pregnancy
• Severe allergy
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-27
Designing a Treatment Strategy
• Treatment strategy dependant on several
factors including:
•
•
•
•
National drug resistance surveys
Availability of drugs
Prevalence of drug resistance
Previous second-line drug exposure
• ALWAYS submit sputum for culture and
sensitivity testing if drug resistance suspected!
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-28
Standardised MDR
Treatment Regimens (1)
• A standardised Category IV treatment regimen
has been developed for Botswana
• Uses 5 initial drugs to cover most patterns of
resistance with at least 4 effective drugs
• First-line (H,R,E,S) results should be available
• An injectable agent and a fluoroquinolone
(FQL) are the core of the regimen

Slide 11-30
Building an MDR
Treatment Regimen
• Include drugs from Groups 1-4 in a
hierarchical order based on potency
•
•
•
•
Step 1: use any first-line drug still susceptible
Step 2: add an injectable agent
Step 3: add a fluoroquinolone
Step 4: use the remaining group IV drugs to make
a regimen with at least 4 effective drugs
• “More is better than less”
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-31
Duration of Treatment
• Injectable agent: minimum of 6 months
• Total treatment: 18 months after culture
conversion
• Some patients with extensive disease and
extensive prior treatment may be treated for 24
months
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-32

repeat if indicated
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-34
Interim Outcome Measures (1)
• Culture conversion: defined as two
consecutive negative cultures taken at least
30 days apart in patients with initially culturepositive TB
• Smear conversion:
• Two negative specimens at least 30 days apart
• With or without baseline culture
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-35
Interim Outcome Measures (2)
Time to sputum conversion
• Interval between start of treatment and date of
obtaining first negative specimen
• Record separately for smear and culture on
MDR patient treatment card
• Average time to culture conversion = 2 months
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-36
Special Situations (1)
• Fertile women
• Avoid pregnancy: use injectable medroxyprogesterone (Depo-Provera) and/or condoms
• Pregnancy
• Postpone second line until delivery if it is safe
• Due to potential drug toxicity
• Cycloserine may be safer than ethionamide
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-37
Special Situations (2)
• Breast-feeding
• If possible, smear + mothers should avoid contact with
their babies until they are smear negative
• Treatment of mother outweighs risks of toxicity to baby
• If safe and sustainable, artificial feeding would avoid risk of
infant toxicity
• Children
• Can use needed second-line agents
• Ciprofloxacin, ethionamide, cycloserine and amikacin successfully
used
• Monitor weight at each visit and adjust doses as needed

Extensively Drug
Resistant (XDR) TB
• Also referred to as eXtremely Drug Resistant
TB in the past
• Term coined in early 2006 following a joint
survey by WHO and CDC
• Survey analysed data collected between
2000-2004; findings:
• XDR-TB in all regions of the world
• 4% of MDR-TB cases in US and 19% in Latvia
met criteria for XDR-TB

Slide 11-44
XDR-TB – Anti-TB Drugs
• XDR-TB virtually untreatable currently
• Global Alliance for Drug Development
• In clinical development:
• Moxifloxacin (INH sub.), Nitroimidazole PA-824
• In Discovery phase:
• Nitroimidazole Analogs
• Mycobacterial Gyrase Inhibitors
• InhA Inhibitors
• Pleuromutlinis
• Linezolid

Slide 11-45
XDR-TB:
What Can We Do Meanwhile?
• Strengthen basic TB care, manage simple TB
• Prompt diagnosis and treatment of drug resistant
cases to prevent further transmission
• Send sputums for DST for 2nd line medicines
• Increase collaboration between HIV and TB control
programmes
• Retreatment cases
• Prevent transmission in the health care settings
Unit 11: Drug Resistance and MDR TB
Slide 11-46
Global Response to
MDR-TB & XDR-TB in 2007
• Strengthen basic activities to control TB and
HIV/AIDS
• Scale-up programmatic management
• Strengthen laboratory services
• Expand surveillance
• Foster infection control measures
• Strengthen ACSM
• Resource mobilization
• Promote research and development

Slide 11-47
Key Points
• It is better to prevent than to treat drug
resistance and MDR
• Standarised MDR treatment regimen should
be used whenever possible
• Side effects of MDR treatment are frequent
but manageable
• Important to monitor closely for treatment
efficacy and toxicity
