Is screening and treatment of latent TB the key to TB elimination?

Tuberculosis continues to threaten the lives of people worldwide as each year 10 million people develop this disease. Join Dr. Zellweger as he discusses the 2019 WHO report, which gives an up-to-date assessment, including the ongoing progress in TB prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. This current global TB report endorses interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs), like QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus, for early detection of latent TB (LTBI) and recommends preventative treatment for those who are most at risk. Find out why the WHO report states that global efforts need to be expanded in screening and treatment and the specific actions needed to end the cycle of active TB disease and transmission.

In this webinar, Dr. Jean-Pierre Zellweger, a former chief of the TB clinic at the University Hospital in Lausanne, will summarize the updated 2019 WHO report and the ongoing progress to end the TB epidemic. Dr. Zellweger will also discuss new preventive treatment regimens, the use of IGRAs as a primary screening method before treating and the benefits of modern TB blood testing with QuantiFERON®-TB Gold Plus – the latest development of IGRA technology - to help reach the End TB Strategy targets.

QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus) is an in vitro diagnostic aid for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. QFT-Plus is an indirect test for M. tuberculosis infection (including disease) and is intended for use in conjunction with risk assessment, radiography, and other medical and diagnostic evaluations. QFT-Plus Package Inserts as well as up-to- date licensing information and product-specific disclaimers can be found at www.QuantiFERON.com.
