Objectives: To evaluate the accuracy of two new molecular diagnostic tests for the detection of drug-resistant tuberculosis, the FluoroType MTB and MTBDR VER 2.0 assays, in combination with manual and automated DNA extraction methods. Methods: Sputa from 360 Xpert Ultra Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC)-positive patients and 250 Xpert Ultra MTBC-negative patients were tested. GenoType MTBDRplus served as reference for MTBC and drug resistance detection. Sanger sequencing was used to resolve discrepancies. Results: FluoroType MTB VER 2.0 showed similar MTBC sensitivity compared with FluoroType MTBDR VER 2.0 (manual DNA extraction: 91.6% (294/321) versus 89.8% (291/324); p 0.4); automated DNA extraction: 92.1% (305/331) versus 87.7% (291/332); p 0.05)). FluoroType MTBDR VER2.0 showed comparable diagnostic accuracy to FluoroType MTBDR VER1.0 as previously reported for the detection of MTBC and rifampicin and isoniazid resistance. Conclusions: The FluoroType MTB and MTBDR VER 2.0 assays together with an automated DNA extraction and PCR set-up platform may improve laboratory operational efficiency for the diagnosis of MTBC and resistance to rifampicin and isoniazid and show promise for the implementation in a centralized molecular drug susceptibility testing model.
