Plain English Summary
Plain English summary as of 29/10/2018:
Background and study aims
Tuberculosis (TB) is a common, infectious condition caused by a bacteria infection. It is generally spread by breathing in tiny droplets released into the air by an infected person coughing or sneezing. TB usually affects the lungs, but it can also affect other areas of the body such as the bones, brain and kidneys. Despite the availability and effectiveness of affordable six-month treatments for tuberculosis (TB), the worldwide control of this disease is currently being impacted by the emergence of multidrug resistant TB (MDR-TB). MDR-TB is where the powerful first-line drugs used to treat TB (at least isoniazid and rifampicin) are ineffective, leading to the spread of an infection that is much more difficult to treat. Currently the standard treatments for MDR-TB can last as long as 24 months with a success rate of no more than 50%. With an approximately 500,000 new cases every year there is an urgent need to develop shorter and more effective treatments. The aim of this study is to compare three different shorter drug regimens to the standard 18-month MDR-TB regimen, in order to find the most effective treatment.
Who can participate?
Adults who have multidrug resistant tuberculosis (TB).
What does the study involve?
In countries where the WHO 2016 short regimen has not been adopted pParticipants are randomly allocated to one of four treatment regimens (A-D)..In countries where the WHO 2016 regimen has been adopted participants are randomly allocated to one of three treatment regimens (B-D) Those allocated to regimen A (which contains half as many participants as in the other three groups) are given the standard MDR-TB regimen, which they take for 18 months. Those allocated to regimen B are given a previously tested regimen consisting of the drugs clofazimine, ethambutol, moxifloxacin, and pyrazinamide given for 40 weeks, supplemented by isoniazid, kanamycin, and prothionamide in the first 16 weeks. Those allocated to regimen C begin a newly designed 40 week all-oral (by mouth) treatment programme which consists of the drugs bedaquiline, clofazimine, ethambutol, levofloxacin, and pyrazinamide given for 40 weeks supplemented by isoniazid and prothionamide for the first 16 weeks. Those in regimen D are given a newly designed 28-week regimen consisting of the drugs bedaquiline, clofazimine, levofloxacin, and pyrazinamide given for 28 weeks supplemented by isoniazid and kanamycin for the first 8 weeks. At 76 weeks, the effectiveness of the newly designed regimens (C and D) are compared to the previously tested regimen B by taking and analyzing blood samples. In addition, the effectiveness of all four regimens are compared at 132 weeks using blood samples.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
Participants benefit from receiving more information about their health from the results of the tests done and are able to talk to a study councilor about any concerns they may have. For patients that receive the shorter treatment regimes, they may also benefit from a quicker recovery. Risks of taking part involve the general risks of taking the study drugs, as well as the risk of pain and bruising when blood samples are taken.

Scientific title
The evaluation of a Standardised Treatment REgimen of Anti-tuberculosis drugs for patients with Multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB): A multi-centre international parallel group randomised controlled trial
Acronym
STREAM 2
Study hypothesis
Stage Two of the STREAM trial involves the investigation of two alternative regimens, both variations on Regimen B (the 9 month regimen evaluated in Stage 1 against the WHO recommended regimen), incorporating the newly available drug bedaquiline. The first of these investigational regimens, Regimen C, involves the removal of the injectable, kanamycin, which has known associated risks of ototoxicity and renal toxicity. The second investigational regimen, Regimen D, investigates the possibility of treatment being further shortened to 28 weeks, with a shorter duration of the initial intensive phase containing kanamycin and isoniazid and the dropping of ethambutol, which is considered to be of limited efficacy, and prothionamide, which is commonly associated with severe gastric symptoms.
Study aims:
1. To assess the superiority of Regimen C over Regimen B; this is a US FDA requirement.
2. To assess whether Regimen C is not inferior to Regimen B
3. To assess whether Regimen D is non-inferior to Regimen B

Condition
Multi-drug resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (MDR-TB)
Intervention
Patients consent to screening at their first visit at which stage they are assigned a unique study number. The patient is then evaluated for their eligibility according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria If a patient is screened successfully and satisfies the criteria to participate in STREAM, the patient will then complete the randomisation consent and complete the Week 0 assessment prior to randomisation. Patients should be randomised no more than 4 weeks after screening consent.
Randomisation occurs using a web-based randomisation system at a ratio of 1:2:2:2 in favour of Regimen B, Regimen C, and Regimen D. Patients are then assessed at Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, after which they will be seen 4-weekly until Week 52, after which they will be seen 8-weekly until Week 84, after which they will be seen 12-weekly until Week 132 post randomisation.

Primary outcome measure
The primary efficacy outcome is the proportion of patients with a favourable outcome at Week 76 defined as two negative cultures taken on separate visits, the latest of which being no more than six weeks earlier or later than week 76, provided the outcome has not previously been classified as unfavourable.
Secondary outcome measures
1. Time to sputum culture conversion is recorded during 132 weeks of follow-up
2. Time to sputum smear conversion is recorded during 132 weeks of follow-up
3. Efficacy status at end of follow-up, based on the same definition as the primary endpoint, but at week 132
4. Time to unfavourable efficacy outcome* is recorded during 132 weeks of follow-up
5. The proportion of participants in each category who meet the WHO classification of outcome as applicable at the time of analysis is determined at Week 76 and Week 132
6. Time to cessation of clinical symptoms based on PI assessment is recorded during 132 weeks of follow-up
7. All-cause mortality is recorded during 132 weeks of follow-up
8. Proportion of patients experiencing a grade 3 or greater adverse event, as defined by the DAIDS criteria is recorded during 132 weeks of follow-up
9. Change of regimen for adverse drug reactions are recorded throughout the study period
10. Number of adverse events occurring on treatment and during 132 weeks of follow-up
11. Pharmacokinetic outcomes are measured at selected visits using a validated and sensitive liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method

2. Treatment is extended beyond the scheduled end of treatment for any reason other than making up of days when no treatment was given (missed treatment) for a maximum of eight weeks
3. They are restarted on any MDR-TB treatment after the scheduled end of treatment, but before 76 weeks after randomisation.
4. They change their allocated study treatment for any reason other than the replacement of a single drug
