DST in M. tuberculosis
Metodi Fenotipici (valutazione dela crescita in terreno solido/liquido in presenza del
farmaco):
Costo-efficace
Semplice da eseguire più complessa da standardizzare
Risultati disponibili in settimane/mesi
Metodi moleculari (identificazione delle mutazioni responsabili di resistenza):
(generalmente) costosi
Difficoltà di esecuzione, limitato ad alcuni targets
Risultati disponibili in ore
Non richiede il ceppo vitale, indipendente da inqiuinmento del campione
Limiti del test fenotipico
Un Gene che non è
Espresso “In Vitro” può
Essere Espresso “In
Vivo”
APPROCCIO CHEMIOTERAPICO ALLA TUBERCOLOSI
Diverso dalle altre malattie batteriche per:
• Lungo tempo di replicazione dei micobatteri
• Fase di quiescenza
• Crescita in situazioni metaboliche molto diverse
• Crescita in ambienti molto diversi (presenza di
ossigeno, microarofilia, basso pH)
• Necessità di più farmaci attivi
contemporaneamente
Farmaci antitubercolari di prima scelta
•
•
•
•
Isoniazide
Rifampicina
Etambutolo
Pirazinamide
• Streptomicina
NUMERO LIMITATO
Resistance in M. tuberculosis
Due exclusively to chromosomal mutations
• Mutations responsible of drug resistance occur spontaneously with
variable frequencies (1/106-1/108)
• Resistance is the results of the selection of resistant mutants due to
inadequate therapy
The use of at least two active drugs decreases
the occurrence of resistances
 DST must be: reliable and rapid to perform
DST molecolare in M. tuberculosis
Basato sulla analisi di singole mutazioni
nucleotidiche
permette di ottenere dati indipendentemente dalla
coltura
Predice cross-resistenze
Consente l’analisi simultanea di molti campioni.
Standardizzazione (automzione) e TAT
Costo-efficacia
Solo per pochi farmaci
Bassa sensibilità per alcuni campioni
Molecular techniques used to
detect drug-resistances
• There is not a universal technique
• The choice among the different available
techniques depends on the information to be
collected, and on the considered target
• Technology is on continuous up-grading; the
application depends on the capability of the
laboratory
• The majority of molecular tests are able to identify
only known mutations
• Opportunity of automation
(decreased risk of contaminations; reduced hand-time; increased biosafety…)

Evaluation of the TB-Biochip oligonucleotide
microarray system for rapid detection of rifampin
resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Caoili et al. 2006; JCM 44: 2378-2381
1.Suitable for use in clinical laboratories (little hands-on time; specialized training not
required).
2.Affordable (microarrays are anticipated to cost 5 to 10 dollars each. Much of the cost
of the system lies in the PCR amplification steps.
3.Excellent specificity and good sensitivity; discrepancies between the results of
conventional DST and the TB-Biochip system result from the limited range of mutations
included on the biochip.
Inclusion of probes for additional mutations could, in principle, further increase the
overall sensitivity of the system. However, the associated increase in production costs
and potential for compromised specificity must be weighed against any gain in sensitivity.

Rapid diagnosis of DR TB using LiPA: from
evidence to policy
Ling et al (2008). Expert Rev Resp Med 2:583-588
MOLECULAR LiPAs FOR RAPID SCREENING
OF PATIENTS AT RISK OF MDR-TB: WHO
POLICY STATEMENT
• LiPAs are highly sensitive (>=97%) and specific (>=99%) for the
detection of RIF-R, alone or in combination with INH (sensitivity
>=90%; specificity >=99%), on isolates of M. tuberculosis and on smearpositive sputum specimens.
• Overall accuracy for detection of MDR was equally high at 99%, and
retained when RIF-R alone was used as a marker for MDR.
Current WHO recommendations:
• Specimen processing for mycobacterial culture: BSC under at least BSL2
conditions
• Procedures involving manipulation of M. tuberculosis cultures:
laboratories complying with BSL3 standards
Applying these recommendations to LiPAs, processing of smear-positive
specimens for direct testing should be performed in a BSL2 level
laboratory, whereas performing the assay on positive cultures would
require BSL3 facilities.
LiPAs: dati mancanti
• The evaluation of LiPAs in screening and diagnostic algorithms in
different epidemiological settings;
• The cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit of LiPAs in different
programmatic settings;
• The role of LiPAs in combination with conventional culture in
smear-negative specimens;
• The impact of specimen inactivation/disinfection procedures on
LiPA performance;
• Methods to optimize DNA extraction, especially from specimens
with low numbers of organisms.

Reverse line blot assay for detecting OFL resistance derived from point mutations in the
gyrA gene.
Specific oligonucleotide probes spanning the QRDR of the gyrA gene immobilized on
nitrocellulose strips and hybridized with digoxigenin-labeled PCR products:
-Region 1:
H37Rv wild-type (WT1);
amino acid substitutions in pos. 90 (A/V) and 91 (S/P).
-Region 2:
H37Rv wild-type (WT2);
amino acid substitutions in pos. 94 (D/A, D/N, D/H, D/G);
polymorphism S95T.
Hybridizations detected colorimetrically.
The assay correctly identified all OFL-S and 17 out of 19 (89.5%) OFL-R strains*;
results were 100% concordant with those of nucleotide sequencing.
A nested-PCR protocol was also set up for the line probe assay to amplify DNA
extracted from sputum samples, with a sensitivity of 2x103 M. tuberculosis CFU/ml of
sputum. This value is lower than that required for recognition of acid-fast smear
positivity by Ziehl-Neelsen staining (0.5x104 to 1x104 CFU/ml of sputum).
*75 to 94% of FQ-resistant isolates had gyrA mutations in the QRDR. Other mechanisms of resistance
include mutations in regions of gyrA and gyrB outside the QRDR, decreased cell wall permeability, active
drug efflux pump mechanisms, sequestration of drug, and drug inactivation.

Molecular DRS in Burkina Faso (Dec 2006 – Oct 2008)*
Background:
• No culture/culture DST facilities availability
• HIV-TB co-infection high prevalence
Population
108 chronic patients enrolled at 15 sites
*from Miotto et al EID 09 submitted
DRS perfomed by molecular assay on
decontaminated sputum specimens
• 3 MDR by MTBDRplus assay were not confirmed to be RIF-R on culture DST.
• Sequence analysis of the rpoB gene: M515I+H526N, L533P, and H526N respectively.
Further analysis allowed to detect increased MICs in these 3 strains
Discrepancies
Discrepant sputum smear microscopy results could be due to the different samples
examined in Burkina Faso and in Italy.
Sub-optimal transport conditions: this may have affected culture results
Most of the culture-negative samples harboured DNA from MTB sensitive strains by
MTBDRplus: treatment was effective against those bacteria and category IV regimen
was unnecessary.
One smear-positive culture-negative resulted MDR at the molecular assay may be due
to the fact that this case was sampled at M6 after the beginning of the cat. IV regimen:
we observed during treatment follow-up that the molecular assay became negative
between M3 and M6 in patients under effective treatment
Two sputum smear-negative samples harbouring NTM (M. intracellulare, M. avium)
have been identified as MTB complex by the MTBDRplus: sub-optimal transport
conditions and successful treatment that selected the microorganisms not belonging to
the MTB complex.
Concluding remarks
The use of the molecular assay, with further
confirmation from culture and DST when available,
suggested readdressing classification and reconsidering
treatment of different groups of patients:
• Patients that were classified and treated as MDR
cases harbouring RIF- and INH-S strains (n 24)
• Patients negative for MTB complex DNA (n 29)
• Patients considered chronic due to smear positivity
but instead carrying NTM (n 15)
Risks of extensive use
• Increasing costs for the TB programme due to
reagents, disposable material equipment,
personnel
• Sub optimal performance in non adequately
equipped/maintained laboratory
• High risks of false positive/cross contamination
• Misinterpretation of results may lead to patient’s
mismanagement and new cases of MDR
Advantages of extensive use
• Centralization and extensive on
selected patient’s groups use may
improve technical capacity and reduce
costs
• Prompt availability of data on drug
sensitivity for correct patient’s
management
Molecular DST: conclusions
Usefulness of molecular techniques in DST is still limited by the
lacks of knowledge of all molecular mechanisms of resistance.
Negative results from genotypic tests do not exclude a resistant
phenotype
Although these assays cannot replace conventional DST, the high
sensitivity and specificity for RIF-R and INH-R can facilitate the
early diagnosis and treatment of MDR-TB, particularly for
patients with a history of prior TB treatment.
Sensitivity of commercial tests could be influenced by
geographic regions
Identification of mutations by molecular DST allows to predict
cross-resistances among drugs (e.g. aminoglycosids, cyclic
peptides).
