Phenotyping of High Dose Rifampicin

• The participant is able and willing to provide written, informed consent prior to all trial-related procedures.
• The participant is aged between 18 and 65 years, inclusive.
• The participant is a diagnosed pulmonary TB patient.
• The participant is currently being treated with a daily dose of 10 mg/kg rifampicin, i.e. 450 mg daily for patients with a body weight below 55 kg and 600 mg daily for participants with a body weight above 55 kg. This is in correspondence with the local South African TB treatment programme. Furthermore, the participant has to be in the continuation phase of the treatment regimen (i.e. month 3 to 6), has demonstrated reasonable treatment compliance (≥80% of doses) and tolerates treatment well.
• The participant has a body weight (in light clothing and with no shoes) between 40 and 85 kg, inclusive.
• The participant is and stays non-pregnant (based on a negative serum pregnancy test,) and non-lactating (female participants of childbearing potential only).

Exclusion Criteria:

• The patient is in poor general condition where any change in treatment cannot be accepted per discretion of the Investigator.
• The participant has active Hepatitis B.
• The participant has active Hepatitis C.
• The participant is receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART).
• There is evidence showing the participant has clinically significant metabolic, gastrointestinal, or other abnormalities than could possibly alter the PK of rifampicin and/or the probe drugs.
• The participant has a history of or current clinically relevant cardiovascular disorder such as:
• heart failure, atrioventricular (AV) block, arrhythmia, tachyarrhythmia or status after myocardial infarction.
• family history of sudden death of unknown or cardiac-related cause, or of prolonged QTc interval.
• The participant has clinically relevant abnormalities in the ECG such as atrioventricular (AV) block, prolongation of the QRS complex over 100 milliseconds, or of a QTc interval over 450 milliseconds on the screening ECG.
• The participant has abnormal alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate transferase (AST) levels > 3 times the upper limit of the laboratory reference range at screening.
• The participant has a known or suspected, current drug or amphetamine abuse, that is, in the opinion of the Investigator, sufficient to compromise the safety or cooperation of the patient.
• The participant used any drugs or substances known to be strong inhibitors or inducers of cytochrome P450 enzymes and/or P-glycoprotein (P-gp) within 2 weeks prior to day 1 (i.e. 1 month before administration of the phenotyping probes on day 15) of the study (including carbamazepine, barbiturates, St. John's Wort, clarithromycin, itraconazole, fluconazole, quinidine, ketoconazole, erythromycin). Exceptions may be made for participants who have received 3 days or less of one of these drugs or substances, if there has been a wash-out period equivalent to at least 5 half-lives of that drug or substance before day 1 of the study.
• The participant uses any of the phenotyping probe drugs (i.e. midazolam, caffeine, dextromethorphan, tolbutamide, omeprazole and digoxin) as part of standard medical treatment.
• The participant has as history of allergy to any of the phenotyping probe drugs (i.e. midazolam, caffeine, dextromethorphan, tolbutamide, omeprazole and digoxin).
