Safety
A total of 45 adverse events graded as severe or
life threatening occurred in 38 patients during
treatment (Table S3 in the Supplementary Appendix),
none of which were considered to have a
definite relation to the study medication. However,
6 of the events in the control group, 6 of the
events in the 4-month group, and 4 of the events
in the 6-month group were considered to be possibly
or probably related to the study medication.
Among the 827 patients who underwent randomization,
25 patients died: 6 in the control group,
12 in the group receiving the 4-month regimen,
and 7 in the group receiving the 6-month regimen.
Among these 25 deaths, 4 were classified
as being possibly or probably related to tuberculosis
(see details in Table S4 in the Supplementary
Appendix). Among the 8 patients for whom
the cause of death could not be ascertained, all
had negative results on the last sputum specimen
that was cultured. However, 6 of these patients
were coinfected with HIV, and their deaths could
have been HIV-related.
