Montreal, Quebec, CanadaBACKGROUND: Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is a reservoir for new TB cases. Isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) reduces the risk of active TB by as much as 90%, but LTBI screening has limitations. Unlike tuberculin skin testing (TST), interferon-gamma release assays are not affected by BCG vaccination, and have been reported to be cost-effective in low-burden countries. The goal of this study was to perform a cost-effectiveness analysis from the health system perspective, comparing three strategies for LTBI diagnosis in TB contacts: tuberculin skin testing (TST), QuantiFERON®-TB Gold-in-Tube (QFT-GIT) and TST confirmed by QFT-GIT if positive (TST/QFT-GIT) in Brazil, a middle-income, high-burden country with universal BCG coverage. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Costs for LTBI diagnosis and treatment of a hypothetical cohort of 1,000 adult immunocompetent close contacts were considered. The effectiveness measure employed was the number of averted TB cases in two years. Health system costs were US$ 105,096 for TST, US$ 121,054 for QFT-GIT and US$ 101,948 for TST/QFT-GIT; these strategies averted 6.56, 6.63 and 4.59 TB cases, respectively. The most cost-effective strategy was TST (US$ 16,021/averted case). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was US$ 227,977/averted TB case for QFT-GIT. TST/QFT-GIT was dominated. CONCLUSIONS: Unlike previous studies, TST was the most cost-effective strategy for averting new TB cases in the short term. QFT-GIT would be more cost-effective if its costs could be reduced to US$ 26.95, considering a TST specificity of 59% and US$ 18 considering a more realistic TST specificity of 80%. Nevertheless, with TST, 207.4 additional people per 1,000 will be prescribed IPT compared with QFT.engPublic Library of ScienceCost-effectiveness of quantiferon®-TB gold-in-tube versus tuberculin skin testing for contact screening and treatment of latent tuberculosis infection in Brazilinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleCustos de Cuidados de SaúdeSintomas TuberculínicosTuberculose Latenteinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da FIOCRUZ (ARCA)instname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZLICENSElicense.txtlicense.txttext/plain; charset=utf-81914https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/6714/1/license.txt7d48279ffeed55da8dfe2f8e81f3b81fMD51ORIGINALjournal.pone.0059546.pdfjournal.pone.0059546.pdfapplication/pdf465528https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/6714/2/journal.pone.0059546.pdfe15fdd774cf9ffd4c01849bad970d675MD52TEXTjournal.pone.0059546.pdf.txtjournal.pone.0059546.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain38232https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/6714/5/journal.pone.0059546.pdf.txtf9d9abc28c36f4b53ca9b9311e8c93aeMD55THUMBNAILjournal.pone.0059546.pdf.jpgjournal.pone.0059546.pdf.jpgGenerated Thumbnailimage/jpeg2639https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/6714/4/journal.pone.0059546.pdf.jpga9bee5f4904096ef5af84c21b1404094MD54icict/67142020-04-07 10:43:19.898oai:www.arca.fiocruz.br:icict/6714Repositório InstitucionalPUBhttps://www.arca.fiocruz.br/oai/requestrepositorio.arca@fiocruz.bropendoar:21352020-04-07T13:43:19Repositório Institucional da FIOCRUZ (ARCA) - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false
