Increasing rates of NTM
• The isolation of prevalence of pulmonary NTM isolates increased from 9.1/100,000 in 1997 to 14.1/100,000 in 2003 in Ontario, CA (Marras T, et al, Thorax 2007)
• Annual prevalence of NTM pulmonary disease in hospitalized patients in the US increased at a rate of 6.5% for women, 3.2% for men (Adjemian et al, 2012, AJRCCM).
• The incidence of clinically significant pulmonary disease rose from 2.2/100,000 in 1999 to 3.2/100,000 in 2005 in Queensland, Australia (Thomson R, 2010, EID)
Prevalence of Pulmonary NTM Among Medicare Part B Enrollees by State

Henkle E, et al. Annals ATS 2015;12:642
Why are NTM increasing?
• Exposure– Great exposure to aerosols
– Change in plumbing (copper to PVC, lower water temperatures)
• Diagnostics– More sensitive culture methods
– More CT scans
• Organism– Increased virulence?
• Host factors– Aging population, more lung disease
– More immunosuppressed patients
– Decreasing cross‐immunity to M. tuberculosis

Mycobacterial Culture
• Cultures for mycobacteria should include both solid and liquid media
• Broth media have a higher yield and provide results more rapidly
• Solid media allow observation of colony morphology, growth rates, recognition of mixed cultures, and quantitation
• Drug susceptibility testing– MAC – test macrolide– M. kansasii – test rifampin– Rapid growers – multiple drugs ATS/IDSA AJRCCM 2007;175:367

Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infections Environmental Pathogens
• What are nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM)?
• Are NTM infections increasing?
• How do we diagnose NTM infections?
• How do we treat NTM infections?
NTM Pulmonary InfectionsWhen to Treat?
• The Patient– Increased susceptibility?– Clinical symptoms and overall condition of patient– Extent of radiograph abnormalities and whether there
is evidence of progression
• The Organism– Species that has been isolated– Bacteriologic load (smear + vs. smear -)
• Overall goal of therapy?– Cure, bacteriologic conversion, relief of symptoms,
prevention of progression

Treatment Responses for Patients with M. abscessus and M. massiliense
Koh WJ, et al. Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2011;183:405-10
• Patients with M. massiliense are more likely to improve:– Symptoms: 97% vs.75%, p = 0.04– Radiographs: 82% vs. 42%, p = 0.003– Culture conversion: 88% vs. 25%, p < 0.001
• Why the difference in outcomes?– M. abscessus has erm(41) which results in acquired macrolide
resistance– M. massiliense has a deletion in erm(41) which renders it
nonfunctional
• Incubation of M. abscessus with clarithromycin led to rapid increase in MICs but not with M. massiliense

Summary
• NTM infections appear to be increasing in many countries
• Diagnosis should consider the clinical and radiographic presentation –it may be difficult to distinguish NTM from TB
• The decision to treat should be based on at least three factors; patient, organism (species and bacterial load) and goals of treatment
• Treatment is complex and outcomes remain suboptimal
• New drugs and treatment regimens are needed
