The Need

  • In 2022, only 43% of the total estimated multidrug-resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB) incident cases were diagnosed and enrolled on treatment regimen1
  • Only 47% of the total notified MDR-TB cases were tested for resistance to fluoroquinolones1
  • Increase access to rapid and extended drug resistance profiling for all TB-positive cases to rule out MDR/pre-XDR^ TB2

The Solution

The Xpert MTB/XDR test enables rapid molecular DST. When combined with the frontline Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra test, it sets new standards by detecting mutations associated with resistance to isoniazid (INH), fluoroquinolones (FLQ), second-line injectable drugs (SLIDs), and ethionamide (ETH) in a single test.
  • Fast time to result for molecular DST
  • Results in <90 minutes
  • Same easy-to-use process as the Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra test
  • Run on existing GeneXpert® platforms equipped with 10-color modules

The Impact

  • Upfront molecular DST for all TB-positive cases enables optimized treatment in a single visit
  • Increased access to drug-resistance testing with Xpert MTB/XDR help notify more people affected with MDR and Pre-XDR TB3
  • The Xpert MTB/XDR assay provides the capability to differentiate between high and low-level resistance to INH and FLQ, which is important for determining therapeutic options and individualized treatment regimens4
