What this Trial Is About
Every year, more than 3 million people with TB remain undiagnosed and 1 million die. Better diagnostics are essential to reducing the enormous burden of TB worldwide. The Assessing Diagnostics At Point-of-care for Tuberculosis (ADAPT) study seeks to reduce the burden of TB worldwide by evaluating faster, simpler, and less expensive TB triage and diagnostic tests.
