Clinical Outcome with Standard Regimen plus Clofazimine or Moxifloxacin in Cavitary Mycobacterium avium Complex Pulmonary Disease

Abstract

In this retrospective analysis including 173 patients in a tertiary referral center in South Korea, compared with the standard therapeutic regimen, clofazimine or moxifloxacin plus standard treatment regimen potentially did not induce a higher 1-year culture conversion rate in patients with Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease who present with cavitary lesions (fibrocavitary or cavitary nodular bronchiectatic type).
