Abstract
The emergence of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) challenges the control of TB with an increase in treatment failure. Surveillance during treatment is essential to monitor adherence and treatment response.
Metabolomics can be used to obtain a "fingerprint" of the metabolites presents in a biological sample, allowing the study of sets of metabolites affected by host-pathogen interactions and the identification of therapeutic markers to improve the evaluation of the TB outcome.
In this proof of concept, we aimed to characterize the urinary metabolic profile of patients receiving anti-TB treatment and its association to TB treatment outcome.
