    Abstract Background: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) potentially exacerbates drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB). We describe the clinical presentation and outcomes of three patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), DR-TB and COVID-19.
    Case one: A virologically suppressed 31-year-old man on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and multidrug-resistant (MDR)-TB treatment presented with mild COVID-19 and was hospitalised for 10 days of clinical monitoring, despite being clinically stable with normal baseline inflammatory markers. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus polymerase chain reaction (SARS-CoV-2 PCR) positivity persisted at Day 28.
    Case two: A virologically suppressed 37-year-old woman on ART and MDR-TB treatment presented with moderate COVID-19. Baseline inflammatory markers were raised, and dexamethasone and azithromycin were initiated with good clinical improvement. SARS-CoV-2 PCR positivity persisted at Day 28.
    Case three: A viraemic 24-year-old woman on second-line ART and MDR-TB treatment, presented with mild COVID-19 disease, normal oxygenation and normal inflammatory markers, and remained clinically stable with negative SARS-CoV-2 PCR at Days 14 and 28.
    Conclusion: Screening for SARS-CoV-2 infection is advised for DR-TB patients with new or worsening respiratory symptoms.

    Abstract Background: Highly effective, short course, bedaquiline-containing treatment regimens for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-containing fixed dose combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) have radically transformed treatment for MDR-TB and HIV. However, without advances in adherence support, we may not realize the full potential of these therapeutics. The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of adherence support interventions on clinical and biological endpoints using an adaptive randomized platform.
    Methods: This is a prospective, adaptive, randomized controlled trial comparing the effectiveness of four adherence support strategies on a composite clinical outcome in adults with MDR-TB and HIV initiating bedaquiline-containing MDR-TB treatment regimens and receiving ART in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Trial arms include 1) enhanced standard of care; 2) psychosocial support; 3) mHealth using cellular- enabled electronic dose monitoring; 4) combined mHealth and psychosocial support. The level of support will be titrated using a differentiated service delivery (DSD)-informed assessment of treatment support needs. The composite primary outcome will be include survival, negative TB culture, retention in care and undetectable HIV viral load at month 12. Secondary outcomes will include individual components of the primary outcome and quantitative evaluation of adherence on TB and HIV treatment outcomes.
    Discussion: This trial will evaluate the contribution of different modes of adherence support on MDR-TB and HIV outcomes with WHO recommended all-oral MDR-TB regimens and ART in a high-burden operational setting. We will also assess the utility of a DSD framework to pragmatically adjust levels of MDR-TB and HIV treatment support.
