Editor's Notes

  1. Je vous parle d ’ un nouveau test pour le diagnostic de la tuberculose. Pourquoi? Qu ’ est-ce que c ’ est la TB? Et pourquoi a t-on besoin d ’ un nouveau test? Pour répondre a ces questions j ’ ai préparé une liste d ’ objectifs.
  2. A recent meta-analysis assessed the diagnostic accuracy of the commercial NAA tests described above (Ling et al., 2008). Sensitivity (not specificity) of different tests (except real time PCR) depends on samples smear results - positive or negative. It is interesting that NAA tests’ sensitivity of extrapulmonary samples varies much between diffrent tests. Real time PCR shows equal sensitivity for all kind of samples (pulmonary smear positive and negative and extrapulmonary). Specificity of all indicated tests for all kind of samples is nearly the same and quite high. Overall, a pooled sensitivity of 85% (range 36–100%) and specificity of 97%(range 54–100%) was reported. Both values showed significant heterogeneity, which could not be explained even after analysing the results of each test separately. The major conclusion was that the accuracy of these NAATs with respiratory samples was highly variable, with sensitivity giving lower values than specificity. For these reasons, they probably still do not have enough clinical relevance and could not be recommended to replace the conventional tests for diagnosing pulmonary tuberculosis.
  3. ISTC Training Modules 2008 In any given population of TB bacilli, naturally occurring resistant organisms occur at the rates as shown. [Review above] The greater the burden of disease, the larger the bacillary population and the greater the risk for harboring drug-resistant mutants and acquiring drug resistance. [Note: Year drug was discovered is listed under each drug.] [Image Credit: CDC/Dr. Ray Butler; Janice Carr. Illustration Credit: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Illustrator: Krista Townsend]
  4. In this slide, MTB/RIF assay procedure is described. In brief, a sputum sample is treated for 15 minutes with sodium hydroxide and isopropanol-containing reagents, which decrease MTB viability by at least 6 logs. The sample is transferred into the cartridge preloaded with PCR buffers. The cartridge is then loaded into the instrument and an automatic process completes the sample processing, DNA extraction and real-time PCR, thus eliminating the risk of cross-contamination. The test turnaround time is less than 2 h, similar to smear microscopy and many time faster than culture methods.
  5. Up to now, the few papers that report the MTB/RIF performance, show for pulmonary specimens, a sensitivity of more than 98% in smear- and cultures positive samples, and of almost 72% in smear negative culture positive samples. The overall specificity is 99-100%. In addition, MTB/RIF correctly detected rifampicine resistance in more than 96% patients, with a high specificity.
  6. Similar sensitivity and specificity percentages are observed when the Xpert MTB RIF performance is evaluated in low MDR- prevalence population. A good performance, even if we see lower values, is observed in extrapulmonary samples and this indication may imply the isolation of TB strains from other sample in particular patients like children.
  7. Finally, here I reported the last WHO recommendations. WHO strongly recommends Xpert MTB/RIF should be used as the initial diagnostic test in individuals suspected of MDR-TB or HIV/TB and it may be used as a follow-on test especially in smear-negative specimens. The expected impact of Xpert MTB/RIF implementation would be a three-fold increase in the diagnosis of patients with MDR-TB and TB/HIV cases and an increase of treated TB at least may reduce mortality, secondary resistance and ongoing transmission.
  8. So, summarizing the Xpert MTB RIF characteristics:   It is simple to perform It can be performed by low skilled technicians in absence of biosafety infrastructure and this (next slide) will make Xpert MTB/RIF test suitable for district and sub-district levels. It shows an high sensitivity also in paucibacillary samples simplifying the diagnosis of smear negative TB as HIV+ High performance in extrapulmonary samples and The advantage of MTB and RIF resistance detection within 2 hours However we have no data on Xpert MTB/RIF performance in children and few data in low-prevalence populations It requires uninterrupted and stable electronic power supplies and yearly calibration Size for storage issues
  9. Highlight the high variation between the different commercial kits (e.g. low sensitivity of QFT on extrasanguin but the high sensivity for same sample using T-spot). compare values to that of TST.
  10. Sensitivity of our in house assays based on selected peptides was lower compared to the other assays; however the specificity was much higher and more importantly the diagnostic odds ratio was significantly higher compared to the other tests
