Little information exists on the frequency, severity, and timing of first-line anti-tuberculosis drug-related adverse events (TB-AEs) in HIV-tuberculosis coinfected (HIV-TB) patients in the antiretroviral therapy (ART) era. This matched-cohort study included HIV-TB patients as cases and HIV-uninfected tuberculosis (non-HIV-TB) patients as controls. Tuberculosis was culture-confirmed in both groups. Cases were matched to controls in a 1:4 ratio on age, sex, and year of diagnosis. TB-AEs were defined as Grade 2 or higher requiring drug discontinuation/regimen change. From 2003 to 2015, 94 cases and 376 controls were analyzed (95% men, 98% Asians). Standard four-drug combination therapy was initiated in 91% of cases and 89% of controls (p = 0.45). Cases had a higher frequency of TB-AE [51% (48/94) vs. 10% (39/376), p < 0.001]. Their major TB-AEs were fever (19%), rash (11%), and neutropenia (11%). TB-AEs were more severe in cases [Grade 3 or higher: cases (71%, 34/48) vs. controls (49%, 19/39), p < 0.001]. The time from treatment initiation to TB-AE was shorter in cases [median 18 (interquartile range 12-28) vs. 27 (15-57) days, p = 0.027], and 73% of TB-AEs in cases occurred within 4 weeks of starting anti-tuberculosis treatment. HIV infection was an independent risk factor for TB-AEs in the multivariate Cox analysis [adjusted HR (aHR): 6.96; 95% confidence interval: 3.93-12.3]. TB-AEs occurred more frequently in HIV-TB than in non-HIV-TB patients, and were more severe. The majority of TB-AEs occurred within 4 weeks of initiating anti-tuberculosis treatment. Because TB-AEs may delay ART initiation, careful monitoring during this period is warranted in coinfected patients.
在抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)时代,关于合并感染人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)和结核病(HIV-TB)患者一线抗结核药物相关不良事件(TB-AEs)的发生频率、严重程度和发生时间的信息较少。这项配对队列研究纳入HIV-TB患者作为病例组,未感染HIV的结核病患者(非HIV-TB)作为对照组。两组的结核病均经培养确诊。病例组与对照组按年龄、性别和诊断年份以1:4的比例进行配对。TB-AEs被定义为2级或更高等级且需要停药/更改治疗方案的情况。2003年至2015年,共分析了94例病例和376例对照(95%为男性,98%为亚洲人)。91%的病例组和89%的对照组开始使用标准四联抗结核治疗(p = 0.45)。病例组的TB-AE发生频率更高[51%(48/94) vs. 10%(39/376),p < 0.001]。其主要的TB-AEs为发热(19%)、皮疹(11%)和中性粒细胞减少(11%)。病例组的TB-AEs更严重[3级或更高等级:病例组(71%,34/48) vs. 对照组(49%,19/39),p < 0.001]。病例组从开始治疗到发生TB-AE的时间更短[中位数18(四分位间距12 - 28)天 vs. 27(15 - 谱57)天,p = 0.027],病例组73%的TB-AEs发生在开始抗结核治疗的4周内。在多变量Cox分析中,HIV感染是TB-AEs的独立危险因素[调整后风险比(aHR):6.96;95%置信区间:3.93 - 12.3]。HIV-TB患者中TB-AEs的发生频率高于非HIV-TB患者,且更严重。大多数TB-AEs发生在开始抗结核治疗的4周内。由于TB-AEs可能会延迟ART的启动,因此在此期间对合并感染患者进行仔细监测是必要的。
