Study for people with suspected tuberculosis or related infections
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial is looking for adults who might have tuberculosis, a related infection called non-tubercular mycobacteriosis, or a hidden (latent) tuberculosis infection. You will provide a sample for testing, and the study will help doctors understand and manage these infections better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- Your doctor must think you might have tuberculosis, a non-tubercular mycobacterial infection, or a hidden (latent) tuberculosis infection.
- You must have given at least one sample (like sputum, body fluid, or blood) to test for mycobacteria or to perform an IGRA blood test.
- You must be willing to sign a consent form to take part in the study.

This study looks at how to best manage latent tuberculosis (TB) infection using a test that finds people at risk. It aims to help doctors and patients make better decisions together.
This study follows people with suspected or confirmed tuberculosis (TB), whether they have inactive “latent” TB or active TB. It helps researchers better understand TB’s natural course and may improve future testing and care by allowing collection and storage of samples.
This study looks at how the immune system reacts in people with tuberculosis (TB), their close contacts, people with other lung diseases, and healthy volunteers. It aims to find better ways to diagnose and manage TB.
This study looks at immune system blood tests in adults being treated for active tuberculosis and/or latent tuberculosis infection. The goal is to see if these “immune biomarkers” can help guide or improve tuberculosis management.
This study is testing a new blood test (IGRA) to see if it can help doctors diagnose active and latent (hidden) tuberculosis. If you are already being treated for TB and have had an IGRA blood test, you may be able to join.
This study looks for TB bacteria in the blood of people with active tuberculosis and their close contacts at home. It aims to find better ways to detect TB early and prevent its spread.
