Testing methods for tuberculosis diagnosis
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial looks at different ways to diagnose tuberculosis (TB). If you have signs of TB or have already been diagnosed, this study may help improve how TB is found.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have symptoms that could be tuberculosis (like a long cough, fever, or night sweats).
- You have already been diagnosed with tuberculosis.

This trial checks if a blood test can find TB DNA before a lung procedure called bronchoscopy. It may help people who need a bronchoscopy but cannot cough up sputum for testing.
This study tests new, easier ways to diagnose TB, like tongue swabs or sputum tests. It is for people who have already had a chest X-ray with a computer-aided detection (CAD) score.
This study tests new, faster ways to diagnose tuberculosis (TB) using samples like sputum (mucus from your lungs), tongue swabs, and urine. It aims to see if these new tests can find TB more accurately than current methods, which could help you get the right treatment sooner.
This study looks for TB DNA in blood and urine samples to see if it can help diagnose tuberculosis (TB) more quickly. It includes people with active TB, those with a latent (hidden) TB infection, and healthy volunteers without TB.
This study tests rapid TB screening and lab-style diagnostic methods to see how well they find TB disease and TB that is resistant to rifampin (a key TB drug). It may help doctors diagnose TB faster and more accurately, especially in people at higher risk.
This study is looking at how a simple blood test can help monitor tuberculosis (TB) treatment. It may help doctors know sooner if the treatment is working.
