TB-DM project (2014 -2016) Richard Brooks, MD, MPH, EIS officer “Quick and dirty” findings for 1. 5 years of NEDSS data: Compared to TB patients without diabetes, TB-DM were: 1. Two times more likely to be sputum smear positive 2. 2. 4 times more likely to be cavitary 3. Four times more likely to: a. have an indeterminate IGRA b. die during TB treatment TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016
TB-DM project (2014 -2016) Richard Brooks, MD, MPH, EIS officer A couple of anecdotes: 1. Among TB patients/ suspects: YOU have diagnosed previously unknown DM-TB Hgb. A 1 c as high as 14. 4! TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016 3. TDM among TB-DM patients: YOU identified low RIF absorption in some patients, and increased RIF doses to therapeutic levels
Mtb Genotype Clustering • Local Health Department calls CTBCP • Provider or ICP calls CTBCP • CTBCP gets routine genotyping report from CDC (TB-GIMS) and calls LHD • CDC (TB-GIMS) sends an “Alert” • Laboratory calls CTBCP TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016
TBESC Update: Protocol Part B TB Prevention Cascade TB case rate (active TB) # cases of active TB Current U. S. (2014) 30 cases/million 9412 TB ‘pre-elimination’ < 10 cases/million < 3200 TB ‘elimination’ <1 case/million < 320 TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016
Reaching TB Pre-elimination and Elimination • Nadir in TB case numbers and transmission in U. S. • New tests (IGRAs) for diagnosing M. tuberculosis infection • Shorter treatments for LTBI, with high completion rates • Combined strategies needed to hasten time to TB elimination: – Reduce foreign born new arrivers with TB and untreated LTBI – Among individuals with LTBI, increase the proportion that are treated (treatment as prevention) TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016 A. N. Hill et al, Epidemiol Infect 2012; 140: 1862
A. N. Hill et al, Epidemiol Infect 2012; 140: 1862 * Pre-elimination target (<10/mill) met by ≈ 2025 IF • Treatment rate for chronic LTBI is quadrupled starting 2008. TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016 * Approaching elimination (<1/mill ) after 2030 IF • Treatment rate for LTBI is quadrupled starting 2008. • Assumes prevalence of chronic LTBI in FB arrivals is reduced to 25% of baseline.

Low Hanging Fruit - Collecting Data from Health Department TB Clinics • We can do better but can’t get us to TB Elimination! • Funding cuts = fewer populations served by HD TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016
Then there’s the old Mutt and Jeff story … TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016
Challenges to TB Elimination • We don’t know much about the ‘at risk’ populations – WHO, WHERE, HOW MANY? • We don’t know who IS and IS NOT, receiving TB services outside the health department • We don’t know WHICH and WHERE FOR nonhealth department providers that serve ‘atrisk’ populations of interest TB Annual Update, March 22, 2016
