Study Summary

The investigators' objective is to describe the variability of rifampicin absorption, markers of inflammation and gut damage, intestinal absorptive capacity, and intestinal permeability among HIV-infected volunteers. Rifampicin is the least well absorbed of the first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs. Rifampicin malabsorption is frequently observed in HIV-infected patients with active tuberculosis, but cannot be predicted by patient factors such as CD4+ T cell count, viral load, or the presence of diarrhea. The mechanisms for rifampicin malabsorption in HIV-infected patients are unknown. An understanding of mechanisms for rifampicin malabsorption could eventually lead to new therapeutic targets, with the ultimate goal of improving HIV/tuberculosis treatment outcomes.

Primary Outcome

The investigators will perform a pharmacokinetic study to assess rifampicin absorption among study subjects. Pharmacokinetic modeling will be used to assess the absorption rate constant (Ka) for each subject.
