Résumé

Rifampicin resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) was frequently detected in Suriname after the introduction of Xpert MTB/RIF in 2012. Subsequent phenotypic drug-susceptibility testing (DST) was not conclusive at that moment, while RR-TB patients treated with first-line tuberculostatics had good treatment outcome. In our study, we analysed this interesting observation.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Rifampicin resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) was frequently detected in Suriname after the introduction of Xpert MTB/RIF in 2012. Subsequent phenotypic drug-susceptibility testing (DST) was not conclusive at that moment, while RR-TB patients treated with first-line tuberculostatics had good treatment outcome. In our study, we analysed this interesting observation.
METHODS METHODS
We collected demographic and clinical characteristics and treatment outcome of TB patients from May 2012-December 2018 and performed a univariate and multivariate analysis to assess possible associations with resistance to rifampicin. Secondly, we conducted whole genome sequencing on all available
FINDINGS RESULTS
RR-TB was detected in 59 (9.6%) patients confirmed by Xpert. These patients were treated with rifampicin-containing regimens in most (88%) of the cases. In all 32 samples examined, a D435Y mutation in the
INTERPRETATION CONCLUSIONS
This study confirms a low-level rifampicin mono-resistance in TB patients of Suriname. These patients could benefit from a first-line regimen with high dose rifampicin (or rifabutin), rather than from the lengthy treatment regimens for rifampicin-resistant and multi-drug resistant TB, a concept of stratified medicine also advocated for the treatment of TB.
