1 TUBERCULOSIS COURSE Academic Year
2 PROGRAMME OF THE TUBERCULOSIS COURSE May 23 to June 3, 2016! The Course on Tuberculosis will be at The Institut Pasteur Pavillon Louis Martin (Building 09) 28, rue du Docteur Roux PARIS Cedex 15 Theoretical training and Practical training : Ground floor - Pavillon Louis Martin (Building 09)
3 GENERAL PRESENTATION One third of the world s population is infected with Tuberculosis (TB) and at risk to develop the disease. The WHO estimates that there are nine million new TB cases and 1.5 million deaths from TB. Multi-drug resistant (MDR) strains are a growing problem, with new cases every year, 10% of these being extremely drug resistant (XDR). Many laboratories and international consortia are searching for effective new anti-tb drugs and new vaccines, and clinical trials are testing new therapeutic regimens that might shorten the standardized treatments. However, despite considerable efforts for the discovery of new drugs, only ten new antibiotic candidates or repurposed drugs have advanced to preclinical trials. Perhaps the greatest progress has been in the introduction of rapid diagnostic tools based on molecular biology. The incorporation of new technologies has revolutionized the detection of microbial pathogens and resistance to antibiotics. The growing availability of high capacity sequencing has opened new doors for understanding host-pathogen interactions and immunological responses by identifying important determinants in both the bacterial and human genomes. The availability of new tuberculosis diagnostic tests, with frequent technical improvements, requires thorough evaluation in the different settings in which they will be employed. The training course will review all techniques currently used for the rapid diagnosis of tuberculosis and detection of antibiotic resistance, together with a description of their genetic and metabolic bases. This should facilitate the work of laboratories responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis, and also aid laboratories undertaking trials to test new antibiotics and new vaccines. Genomic markers are used to study tuberculosis transmission and also the phylogeny and evolution of M. tuberculosis complex bacteria. The first techniques were based on the detection of polymorphisms in repetitive DNA sequences, but newer tools are based on single nucleotide polymorphisms that are not subject to homoplasia. These tools are useful for molecular epidemiology, but need to be practiced and evaluated to determine how they can be applied in local and regional mycobacterial laboratories. The course will include lectures by international experts to provide up-to-date information on all of these new developments in the study and control of Tuberculosis. Lectures will cover general aspects on Tuberculosis, host pathogen interactions and the immune response, diagnosis and drug susceptibility testing, treatment of MDR TB, new drugs, molecular epidemiology and the phylogeny and evolution of M. tuberculosis complex bacteria. In the practical sessions, the participants will work with the latest diagnostic tests commercially available, together with PCR-based genotyping techniques. They will also identify drug resistance using new methods not yet commercialized. These include direct sequencing of antibiotic resistance determinants and an introduction to genomic analysis for complete drug sensitivity determination. The information presented will be posted on the WEB site The tuberculosis course at the Institut Pasteur in Paris promotes laboratory up-grading, intercontinental exchanges and the discussion of future projects amongst the participants. It is an exceptional opportunity for the participants to acquire new knowledge and to exchange experience and criticism. The course will stress the importance of implementing the right tools in the right settings for optimal efficacy.
