Study summary

The A5414 study will evaluate whether treatment for drug-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) can be tailored according to a participant's risk of an unfavorable outcome. Participants will be assigned to lower-risk or higher-risk groups using baseline characteristics and then randomized within each group to receive either standard TB treatment or an investigational rifapentine- and moxifloxacin-containing regimen. The study will evaluate whether shorter treatment durations may be used in lower-risk participants and whether the investigational regimen may improve outcomes in higher-risk participants. Safety and tolerability will also be evaluated.

Acceptable methods include: * condoms * intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS) * cervical cap with spermicide * diaphragm with spermicide * If not able to become pregnant, has a history or documentation of menopause, hysterectomy, bilateral removal of the ovaries, or bilateral tubal ligation. * Has a verifiable address or place of residence and is willing to tell the study team about any change of address during treatment and follow-up. * Is willing and able to give informed consent, or assent with permission from a parent or legal guardian if required. Exclusion Criteria: * TB bacteria are known to be resistant to 1 or more of the following medicines: rifampin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, or fluoroquinolones. * Received more than 5 days of treatment for active TB within the 24 weeks before study entry. * Received more than 5 days of treatment within the 30 days before study entry with certain TB medicines or related antibiotics, including isoniazid, rifampin, rifapentine, ethambutol, moxifloxacin, pyrazinamide, aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, linezolid, bedaquiline, pretomanid, and other specified anti-TB drugs. * Has suspected or confirmed TB involving the brain or central nervous system, bones, joints, heart lining (pericardium), or miliary TB. * Has a past history of suspected or confirmed drug-resistant TB of any type. * Is currently pregnant or breastfeeding. * Cannot take medicines by mouth. * Has an HIV/AIDS-related opportunistic infection at study entry. * Has acute or chronic hepatitis B, unless the hepatitis B infection has cleared. * Has acute or chronic hepatitis C, unless the hepatitis C infection has cleared or has been successfully treated. * Has alcohol-related liver disease. * Has liver cirrhosis. * Has a history of aortic aneurysm or aortic dissection. * Has a known history of long QT syndrome, a first-degree relative with long QT syndrome, or a screening ECG showing QTcF greater than 470 ms that does not correct with treatment of contributing factors. * Is taking other medicines that can prolong the QT interval and cannot safely switch to an alternative medicine. * Has a known history of acute intermittent porphyria. * Weighs less than 30 kg. * Is currently using, or is expected to need within 24 weeks after enrollment, 1 or more medicines that are not allowed during the study. * Has a known allergy, sensitivity, or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or their ingredients. * Has active drug or alcohol use, dependence, mental illness, or another serious infection that, in the opinion of the site investigator, could make it hard to follow the study requirements. * Is currently taking part in another interventional clinical trial.
