HIV-positive adults on treatment for multi drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) experience high mortality. Biomarkers of HIV/MDR-TB treatment response may enable earlier treatment modifications that improve outcomes. To determine whether changes in C-reactive protein (CRP), D-dimer, and fibrinogen were associated with treatment outcome among those with HIV/MDR-TB coinfection, we studied 20 HIV-positive participants for the first 16 weeks of MDR-TB therapy. Serum CRP, fibrinogen, and D-dimer were measured at baseline and serially while on treatment. At baseline, all biomarkers were elevated above normal levels, with median CRP 86.15 mg/L (interquartile range [IQR] 29.25-149.32), D-dimer 0.85 µg/mL (IQR 0.34-1.80), and fibrinogen 4.11 g/L (IQR 3.75-6.31). C-reactive protein decreased significantly within 10 days of treatment initiation and fibrinogen within 28 days; D-dimer did not change significantly. Five (25%) participants died after a median of 32 days. Older age (median age of 38y among survivors and 54y among deceased, P = 0.008) and higher baseline fibrinogen (3.86 g/L among survivors and 6.37 g/L among deceased, P = 0.02) were significantly associated with death. After adjusting for other measured variables, higher CRP concentrations at the beginning of each measurement interval were significantly associated with a higher risk of death during that interval. Trends in fibrinogen and CRP may be useful for evaluating early response to treatment among individuals with HIV/MDR-TB coinfection.
