Interim analysis of a double-blind, placebo-controlled study with TMC207 in patients with Multi-Drug Resistant (MDR) Tuberculosis Karel de Beule, CDTL TMC 207
TMC207-C208 Trial Design • Phase II, placebo-controlled, double-blind • Patients with newly diagnosed smear positive MDR-TB • Stratified by trial site and degree of lung cavitation • 2 stage trial design • Stage 1 - Safety and dose determination • 8 weeks dosage TMC207/placebo and BR, then BR and 24 months follow-up • Dose regimen: 400 mg qd for 2 weeks followed by 200 mg three times weekly for 6 weeks • Stage 2 - Recruiting - full 6 month dosage • This presentation is a pre-planned analysis of the stage 1 results after 8 weeks of treatment
Stage 1 Objectives • Primary • Evaluate PK (adequacy of the model predicted exposure) • Evaluate safety and tolerability of TMC207 compared to placebo • Secondary • Evaluate anti-bacterial activity of TMC207at 8 wks vs placebo
Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria • Male and female 18-65 years • Positive sputum smear > 1+ • Confirmed resistance to H and R • HIV negative or HIV+ with CD4+ > 300 and no ART • No previous 2nd line anti-tuberculosis agents • No significant extrapulmonary TB or concomitant illness

Microbiology parameters • Weekly sputum collection - culture conversion in liquid media • Defined as 2 consecutive negative cultures at least 1 week apart • Drug carry-over effects were prevented • Analysis set = 44 patients (3 withdrawals) • Serial sputum colony counting (SSCC) performed in 22 patients in overnight sputum collections
