Registered outcomes10
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Incidence of First Diagnosis of Active Tuberculosis, Death Related to Tuberculosis, or Death From Unknown Cause | From entry to occurrence of event, up to end of follow-up 3 years after last participant enrolled (median follow-up time: 3.3 years) | Incidence rate (events per 100 person-years) was estimated, and 95.1% confidence interval used to account for interim analysis of primary efficacy outcome. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Occurrence of One or More Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Versus no SAEs | From entry to occurrence of event, up to end of follow-up 3 years after last participant enrolled (median follow-up time: 3.3 years) | Occurrence of any SAE that meets the ICH definition of an SAE |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With a Targeted Adverse Event | From entry to occurrence of event, up to end of follow-up 3 years after last participant enrolled (median follow-up time: 3.3 years) | Targeted adverse events include each new grade 3 or 4 laboratory value or sign or symptom that is at least one grade increase from baseline for the following: nausea and vomiting; cutaneous; drug-associated fever; elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\]), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase \[SGPT\]), or bilirubin; and peripheral neuropathy |
| Secondary | Number of Participants in Each Category of Ordered Categorical Variable Indicating Most Stringent Level of Study Drug Management Due to Toxicity That Was Required Over the Treatment Period | From entry to end of treatment (up to 8 weeks for Arm A; up to 54 weeks for Arm B) | Ordered categories include: 1. Premature permanent treatment discontinuation 2. Treatment hold for more than 7 consecutive days 3. None of the above |
| Secondary | Cumulative Incidence of Death From Any Cause | From entry to occurrence of event, up to end of follow-up 3 years after last participant enrolled (median follow-up time: 3.3 years) | Data table estimates for percentage who died by each time point were estimated using Kaplan-Meier at 1, 2, 3, and 4 years post-entry. |
| Secondary | Cumulative Incidence of Death Due to a Non-TB Event | From entry to occurrence of event, up to end of follow-up 3 years after last participant enrolled (median follow-up time: 3.3 years) | Cumulative incidence function estimated nonparametrically, treating TB-related deaths as competing risks. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Antibiotic Resistance Among Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB) Isolates in Participants Who Develop Active Tuberculosis | After TB diagnosis | Among MTB-diagnosed participants who underwent drug-susceptibility testing, the number who had any resistance to a particular drug. |
| Secondary | Efavirenz (EFV) Plasma Concentrations in Arm A | Measured at Weeks 0, 2, 4, and 16 | Mean and standard deviation. Week 16 samples have not yet been analyzed because the metabolite assay is being validated, and requires submission for approval by the Clinical Pharmacology Quality Assurance Program. Analysis of week 16 samples are anticipated to be available in September 2019. |
| Secondary | Nevirapine (NVP) Plasma Concentrations in Arm A | Measured at Weeks 0, 2, and 4 | Mean and standard deviation |
| Secondary | EFV Plasma Concentrations in Arm B | Measured at weeks 0, 2 and 4 | For Version 2.0 of the protocol only, measured in the first 90 participants randomized to Arm B who enter the study taking EFV and who meet dose timing criteria. Outcome measure was not assessed because no participants enrolled under version 2.0 of the protocol were on Efavirenz at study entry. |
