- Limitations and caveats
The small sample size had limited power to detect small differences in EBA between study arms even though we enrolled patients with smear-positive TB and high sputum bacillary burden to improve chances of detecting differences between treatment arms.

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Sputum Bacillary Loads: Adjusted Area Under the Curve (aAUC) | Study drug administration duration - 7 days monotherapy | The adjusted area under the curve (aAUC) for sputum colony forming units (cfu) for each day on treatment was calculated. The aAUC represents the percentage of the expected AUC given no change in log cfu in response to study drug administration. |
| Primary | Difference in Sputum Bacillary Loads: Early Bactericidal Activity (EBA) Days 0 to 2; Fluoroquinolones/Isoniazid (INH) Comparison | Day 0 to Day 2 Monotherapy | Early bactericidal activity (EBA 0-2) was calculated as the rate of fall in sputum colony forming units (cfu) (expressed in log10 units) during the first 2 days of monotherapy. |
| Primary | Extended Early Bactericidal Activity (EBA) From Days 2 to 7; Fluoroquinolones/Isoniazid (INH) Comparison | Day 2 to Day 7 Monotherapy | The rate of fall in sputum cfu between day 2 and day 7 of monotherapy was estimated by the slope of the linear regression obtained by fitting the 6 sputum cfu values corresponding to Days 2 through 7. |
| Primary | Sputum Bacillary Loads: Adjusted Area Under the Curve (aAUC) | Study drug administration duration - 7 days monotherapy | The adjusted area under the curve (aAUC) for sputum colony forming unit (cfu) for each day on treatment was calculated for patients in the INH arm and those in the Linezolid once daily and Linezolid twice daily arms. The aAUC represents the percentage of the expected AUC given no change in log cfu in response to study drug administration. |
| Primary | Difference in Sputum Bacillary Loads: Early Bactericidal Activity (EBA) Days 0 to 2; Linezolid Once Daily/Linezolid Twice Daily/Isoniazid (INH) Comparison | Day 0 to Day 2 Monotherapy | Early bactericidal activity (EBA 0-2) was calculated as the rate of fall in sputum cfu (expressed in log10 units) during the first 2 days of monotherapy. Mean values for the 3 treatment groups were compared. |
| Primary | Difference in Sputum Bacillary Loads: Extended Early Bactericidal Activity (EBA) From Days 2 to 7; Linezolid Once Daily/Linezolid Twice Daily/INH Comparison | Day 2 to Day 7 Monotherapy | The rate of fall in sputum cfu between day 2 and day 7 of monotherapy was estimated by the slope of the linear regression obtained by fitting the 6 sputum cfu values corresponding to Days 2 through 7. |
