Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are people aged 14–65 years, weighing 40–90 kg, with sputum smear–positive pulmonary TB confirmed at least rifampicin-resistant who can stop other TB drugs for a 7-day washout and agree to required contraception.

Probably not a fit

Patients with drug-susceptible TB, exclusively extrapulmonary disease, age under 14 or over 65, weight outside 40–90 kg, pregnant people, or those unwilling/unable to stop other TB drugs or use contraception are unlikely to qualify or benefit from this trial.

What this trial studies

This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled Phase 2b trial comparing JDB0131 100 mg and 200 mg tablets with a delamanid-containing regimen given alongside other background TB drugs for 8 weeks. The study enrolls sputum smear–positive patients with at least rifampicin-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis who meet weight and age criteria and who agree to a 7-day washout of prior anti-TB drugs. Key outcomes include bacterial clearance, safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetic measurements of JDB0131. The trial is led by WestVac Biopharma and is conducted at three hospital sites in China.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, JDB0131 could offer a new oral treatment option that clears infection more quickly or is better tolerated for people with rifampicin-resistant or multidrug-resistant pulmonary TB.

How similar studies have gone: Regimens that include delamanid and bedaquiline have shown promising results in MDR/RR-TB, while JDB0131 is a novel agent with limited prior clinical data.
