Impact of bedaquiline resistance probability on treatment decision for rifampicin-resistant TB by T.P.H. Trang, R. Kessels, T. Decroo, A. Van Rie

“…Each percentage point increase in prBDQ R resulted in 8.2% lower odds (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.90–0.93) of continuing BDQ as a fully effective drug and 5.0% lower odds (OR 0.95, 95% CI 0.94–0.96) of continuing it but not counting it as an effective drug. The most favourable patient profile for prescribing BDQ as a fully effective drug was a patient receiving the BPaLM regimen (BDQ, pretomanid, linezolid and moxifloxacin) with low prBDQ R , good 1-month treatment response, fluoroquinolone-susceptible TB, and no prior BDQ treatment. …”
