The combination of isoniazid, rifampin, and ethambutol is recommended by the American Thoracic Society (ATS) for treatment of pulmonary Mycobacterium kansasii, while the British Thoracic Society (BTS) recommends clarithromycin, rifampin and ethambutol. Unfortunately, therapy duration for both regimens lasts for years. In this study, we administered tedizolid, minocycline, clarithromycin, and rifapentine as monotherapy as well as novel combinations in the intracellular hollow-fiber model system of M. kansasii(HFS-Mkn) in a 28-day study.
