Brief Summary: To determine the demographic behavioral clinical and geographic risk factors associated with the occurrence of multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis MDRTB To evaluate the clinical and microbiological responses and overall survival of MDRTB patients who are treated with levofloxacin-containing multiple-drug regimens chosen from a hierarchical list Per 92894 amendment to assess whether persistent or recurrent positive sputum cultures of patients who show failure or relapse are due to the same strain or reinfection with a new strain

Among TB patients there has been an increase in progressive disease due to the emergence of antimycobacterial drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Failure to identify patients at high risk for MDRTB increases the hazard for both treatment failure and development of resistance to additional therapeutic agents Efforts to improve survival in patients with MDRTB will depend on improved methods of assessing the risk of acquisition of MDRTB and identifying drug susceptibility patterns in a timely fashion
Detailed Description: Among TB patients there has been an increase in progressive disease due to the emergence of antimycobacterial drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Failure to identify patients at high risk for MDRTB increases the hazard for both treatment failure and development of resistance to additional therapeutic agents Efforts to improve survival in patients with MDRTB will depend on improved methods of assessing the risk of acquisition of MDRTB and identifying drug susceptibility patterns in a timely fashion

Patients are asked a series of questions to determine epidemiologic factors that may be predictive of MDRTB Patients who are determined to be at low risk for MDRTB will be referred to another TB treatment protocol ACTG 222 if appropriate Patients suspected of having primary or acquired MDRTB or those with confirmed MDRTB will be offered a regimen of anti-TB therapy from a hierarchically ordered list of drugs based on the patients resistance status suspect primary MDRTB suspect acquired MDRTB or confirmed MDRTB The hierarchical list is as follows isoniazid rifampin ethambutol streptomycin levofloxacin ethionamide cycloserine capreomycin aminosalicylic acid and clofazimine Treatment will be administered daily for at least 6 months then on an intermittent schedule at the clinicians discretion Patients with confirmed MDRTB defined as known resistance to at least isoniazid and rifampin within 6 months prior to study entry will receive a minimum of 18 months of treatment following sputum culture conversion Follow-up is performed every 4 weeks for 8 weeks and then every 8 weeks
