Intervention(s)
|
Household contacts that were eligible for the study were randomized to receive either isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) and monthly visits or monthly visits only. Household contacts in the IPT arm were offered self-administerd isoniazid (5mg/kg to a max of 300mg) plus pyridoxine 25mg daily for six months.
|
Primary Outcome(s)
|
1. Net cytokine responses measured from Quantiferon supernatants using an 11-analyte Bio-Plex human cytokine bead array consisting of IFN-?, IL-2, TNF-a, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-10, IL-17a, IL-17f, IL-21, and IL-22, among the household contacts at the end of six-months follow up 2. Mtb specific antibody concentrations to purified protein derivative (PPD), culture filtrate protein 10 (CFP-10), early secreted antigenic target 6 (ESAT-6) antigens using an in-house IgG ELISA assay, among the household contacts at the end of six-months follow up
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|
1. The spontaneous cytokine responses measured from Quantiferon supernatants using an 11-analyte Bio-Plex human cytokine bead array consisting of IFN-?, IL-2, TNF-a, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-10, IL-17a, IL-17f, IL-21, and IL-22 at the end of six-months follow up 2. Any side effects due to IPT found during clinical assessment at each monthly clinic visit or reported as they occur 3. Any changes in TST and QFN test reactions between baseline and at the end of six-months follow up 4. Incidence of active TB acquired during the course of the six-months follow up
