Tuberculosis remains one of the top ten causes of death globally despite it being largely curable. Patients face many challenges to adhere to treatment and mobile health (mHealth) interventions may address these challenges and support patients to complete their treatment. We will improve an interactive intervention based on the combined input from patients and TB experts and evaluate the intervention's impact on treatment outcomes in a randomized clinical trial. Findings have broader implications not only for TB adherence but disease management more generally and will improve our understanding of how to support patients in challenging treatment regimens.
