OBJECTIVE:The aim was to evaluate the efficacy, safety and completion rate of 3-month, once-weekly rifapentine and isoniazid for tuberculosis (TB) prevention among Chinese silicosis patients.METHODS:Male silicosis patients without human immunodeficiency virus infection, aged 18 years to 65 years, with or without latent TB infection, were randomized 1:1 to receive rifapentine/isoniazid under direct observation (3RPT/INH group) or were untreated (observation group). Active TB incidence was compared between the two groups with 37 months of follow-up. Safety profile and complete rates were evaluated.RESULTS:A total of 1227 adults with silicosis were screened; 513 eligible participants were enrolled and assigned to 3RPT/INH (n = 254) vs. observation (n = 259). Twenty-eight participants were diagnosed with active TB, and 9 and 19 in the 3RPT/INH group and observation groups, respectively. In the intention-to-treat analysis, the cumulative active TB rate was 3.5% (9/254) in the 3RPT/INH group and 7.3% (19/259) in the observation group (log rank p 0.055). On per protocol analysis, the cumulative active TB rates were 0.7% (1/139) and 7.3% (19/259), respectively (log rank p 0.01). Owing to an unexpected high frequency of adverse events (70.4%) and Grade 3 or 4 AEs (7.9%), the completion rate of the 3RPT/INH regimen was 54.7% (139/254). Twenty-six (10.8%) participants had flu-like systemic drug reactions; five (2.1%) experienced hepatotoxicity.DISCUSSION:Weekly rifapentine/isoniazid prophylaxis prevented active TB among Chinese people with silicosis when taken, irrespective of LTBI screening; efficacy was reduced by lack of compliance. The regimen must be used with caution because of the high rates of adverse effects.CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION:ClinicalTrials.gov number: NCT02430259.

Objective To compare the lamivudine (LAM) combined with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) therapy and switching to ADV monotherapy in LAM-resistant chronic hepatitis B patients with HBeAg-positive.Methods A total of 172 LAM-resistant patients were randomly divided into 2 groups,116 cases received ADV (10 mg/d) therapy (switching to ADV group),56 cases received LAM (100 mg/d) combined with ADV (10 mg/d) therapy (combined with ADV group),40 cases with poor efficacy in switching to ADV group received LAM (100 mg/d) combined with ADV (10 mg/ d) therapy(re-combination group).The liver function and the levels of HBeAg,anti-HBe,HBsAg,anti-HBs and HBV DNA were tested once every 3 months.Results The complete virologic response rate of combination group was 66.1%,switching group was 45.7%,re-combination was 60.0%,the difference between combinalion with ADV group and switching to ADV group was statistically significant (x2 =5.075,P < 0.05),while there was no difference between recombination group and combination group(x2=0.371,P > 0.05); the primary treatment failure rate of combination group was 7.1%,switching group was 22.4%,the difference between combinalion with ADV group and switching to ADV group was statistically significant (x2 =6.116,P < 0.05),and there was no difference between re-combination and combination group(x2 =0.788,P > 0.05).Conclusions Completely virological response rate of combination ADV group is significantly higher than switching to ADV group.When some patients in switching to ADV group get poor efficacy,re-LAM + ADV combination is also a method of salvage therapy.To optimize the treatment should be based on the early virological response.
