Recruiting studies
- NCT05401071RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Test shorter rifapentine-based treatment for drug-sensitive TB
This trial studies whether a rifapentine-based TB regimen can work just as well while shortening treatment time. It’s for people with rifampicin-sensitive, smear-positive lung tuberculosis.
Guiyang, GuizhouAges 18–60 - NCT03474029RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Daily rifapentine treatment test for latent tuberculosis infection
This trial studies whether taking rifapentine every day is safe and helps prevent active tuberculosis (TB) in people who have latent TB infection. It aims to find the best way to stop TB from becoming a serious illness later.
Denver, ColoradoAges Any age - NCT07086820Recruiting
Window prophylaxis for preventing TB in children
This trial tests if a short course of medication can prevent tuberculosis (TB) in children and teenagers who have been in close contact with someone who has active TB. The goal is to see if this approach can stop them from developing the disease.
Calama, AntofagastaAges 5–17 - NCT06568484RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Preventing TB with bedaquiline in people exposed to TB
This study tests if bedaquiline can prevent tuberculosis (TB) in people who have been in close contact with someone with active TB, including people living with HIV. If you qualify, you would take the study medicine and be monitored to see if it prevents you from developing TB.
UlaanbaatarAges Any age - NCT06022146RecruitingPhase 3
Short TB prevention for school contacts
This trial tests a very short (one-month) medicine course to prevent tuberculosis (TB) in students and school staff who have been exposed to someone with active TB. If you have latent TB infection (the germs are in your body but you're not sick), this treatment aims to stop it from turning into active TB disease.
Anshun, GuiyangAges 13 years+ - NCT06253715RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter TB treatment for children
This trial tests a shorter treatment for children with tuberculosis (TB) that is not drug-resistant. It aims to find out if a shorter regimen works as well as the standard longer one, making treatment easier for children and their families.
ChennaiAges birth–9 years - NCT06281834RecruitingPhase 1
Dolutegravir levels with TB prevention in children
This study tests how dolutegravir (an HIV medicine) works in children when taken with weekly rifapentine and isoniazid (medicines to prevent tuberculosis). It may help find the right dose for kids who have HIV and are at risk for TB.
Ibadan, Oyo StateAges 4 weeks–11 years - NCT06498414RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Shorter and safer treatment for latent TB
This trial tests a shorter, safer treatment for people with latent TB infection (TB germs in your body but not making you sick). The goal is to prevent you from getting sick with active TB later.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Rifapentine?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 8 recruiting studies that include Rifapentine, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Rifapentine trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Rifapentine an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Rifapentine or a specific trial is right for you.
