To determine at two distinct time points the prevalence of resistance to ofloxacin (OFX), the representative class drug of fluoroquinolones (FQs), in M. tuberculosis isolates susceptible to first-line drugs.
There were 279 M. tuberculosis isolates from the two cohorts (2004-2005: 238 isolates; 2017: 41 isolates) that underwent OFX drug-susceptibility testing (critical concentration: 2 µg/ml). Of 238 isolates in Cohort 1, no resistance to OFX was detected (95% CI 0-0.016); likewise, in Cohort 2, no resistance to OFX was detected in 41 isolates (95% CI 0-0.086). Our findings suggest that FQ use remains a viable option for the treatment of first-line drug-susceptible TB in Peru.
在两个不同时间点确定对氟喹诺酮类药物(FQs)代表性药物氧氟沙星(OFX)的耐药率,这些结核分枝杆菌分离株对一线药物敏感。
从两个队列中共有 279 株结核分枝杆菌分离株(2004-2005 年:238 株;2017 年:41 株)进行了 OFX 药物敏感性测试(临界浓度:2μg/ml)。在队列 1 的 238 株分离株中,未检测到对 OFX 的耐药性(95%CI 0-0.016);同样,在队列 2 的 41 株分离株中,也未检测到对 OFX 的耐药性(95%CI 0-0.086)。我们的研究结果表明,在秘鲁,氟喹诺酮类药物仍然是治疗一线药物敏感结核病的可行选择。
