Management of TB Infection in People Living with HIV in European settings (MANAGE-TBI) Study

What is it about?

  • People with latent tuberculosis infection (TBI) constitute a large source of active-TB. 
  • Approximately 25% of the world’s population has TBI, but only <5% are diagnosed and treated to prevent TB. 
  • Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) have the highest rates of TB/HIV coinfection and the largest reservoir of TBI in Europe. 
  • Management of TBI among people living with HIV in CEE remains scattered and requires urgent benchmarking
  • MANAGE-TBI Study is a non-interventional observational study to define best TB preventive strategies among people living with HIV

The MANAGE-TBI Study is supported by WEEPI Foundation Research Grant (Nr. 337-2025).
