Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To assess the performance of the GenoType MTBDRsl v1, a line-probe assay (LPA), to exclude baseline resistance to fluoroquinolones (FQs) and second-line injectables (SLIs) in the Standard Treatment Regimen of Anti-tuberculosis Drugs for Patients With MDR-TB 1 (STREAM 1) trial.METHODS: Direct sputum MTBDRsl results in the site laboratories were compared to indirect phenotypic drug susceptibility testing (pDST) results in the central laboratory, with DNA sequencing as a reference standard.RESULTS: Of 413 multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) patients tested using MTBDRsl and pDST, 389 (94.2%) were FQ-susceptible and 7 (1.7%) FQ-resistant, while 17 (4.1%) had an inconclusive MTBDRsl result. For SLI, 372 (90.1%) were susceptible, 5 (1.2%) resistant and 36 (8.7%) inconclusive. There were 9 (2.3%) FQ discordant pDST/MTBDRsl results, of which 3 revealed a mutation and 5 (1.3%) SLI discordant pDST/MTBDRsl results, none of which were mutants on sequencing. Among the 17 FQ- and SLI MTBDRsl-inconclusive samples, sequencing showed 1 FQ- and zero SLI-resistant results, similar to frequencies among the conclusive MTBDRsl. The majority of inconclusive MTBDRsl results were associated with low bacillary load samples (acid-fast bacilli smear-negative or scantily positive) compared to conclusive results (P < 0.001).CONCLUSION: MTBDRsl can facilitate the rapid exclusion of FQ and SLI resistances for enrolment in clinical trials.

Abstract
SETTING Pham Ngoc Thach Hospital for Tuberculosis and Lung Diseases, the tertiary referral hospital for tuberculosis (TB) in Southern Vietnam. OBJECTIVE To develop and evaluate a simple, rapid and accurate multiplex allele specific polymerase chain reaction (MAS-PCR) test to detect rifampicin (RMP) resistance point mutations at codons 516, 526 or 531 in the rpoB gene of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. DESIGN The novel MAS-PCR was compared with the commercial M. tuberculosis Drug Resistance (MTBDR) test in 104 RMP-resistant and 50 RMP-susceptible routine isolates, defined by conventional 1% phenotypic susceptibility testing. RESULTS The sensitivity of the MAS-PCR and MTBDR tests was respectively 83.7% (95%CI 75.1-90.2) and 93.3% (95%CI 86.6-97.3). Both tests were 100% specific. The negative predictive value was 74.6% (95%CI 65.3-83.1) for the MAS-PCR and 87.7% (95%CI 80.0-93.6) for the MTBDR test. CONCLUSION The MTBDR test, although more sensitive, is currently prohibitively expensive in resource-poor, high-burden settings. The MAS-PCR described here presents a less laborious economic alternative. A susceptible result returned by either test cannot be used to exclude multidrug-resistant TB.
