The appropriate dose of linezolid and duration of treatment with this agent to minimize toxic effects while maintaining efficacy against highly drug-resistant tuberculosis are unclear.
Methods: We enrolled participants with extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis (i.
Pretomanid (Pa) is a nitroimidazole-class drug recently approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory authorities as part of a regimen for treating highly drug-resistant pulmonary infections. Studies in rodents identified the testis as a target organ of concern, which led to monitoring of reproductive hormones in >800 male patients enrolled in four clinical trials of Pa-containing regimens and the HRZE (isoniazid+rifampin+pyrazinamide+ethambutol) control regimen. Serum hormone levels relevant to male reproductive health - follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), inhibin B (InhB) and total testosterone (T) - from the four clinical trials were summarized numerically and analyzed by repeated-measures modeling.

The secondary objective was to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of sutezolid and two metabolites, PNU-101603 and PNU-101244. Overall, sutezolid was well tolerated when administered as a 300-mg, 600-mg, 1,200-mg, or 1,800-mg dose in healthy adult subjects under fasting conditions.
