BACKGROUND: Drug-susceptibility testing (DST) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) isolates by the Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) approach is the most widely applied reference standard. However, the use of WGS is increasing in many developed countries to detect resistance and predict susceptibility. We investigated the reliability of WGS in predicting drug susceptibility, and analysed the discrepancies between WGS and MGIT against the first-line drugs rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol and pyrazinamide. METHODS: DST by MGIT and WGS was performed on MTBC isolates received in 2016/2017. Nine genes and/or their promotor regions were investigated for resistance-associated mutations: rpoB, katG, fabG1, ahpC, inhA, embA, embB, pncA and rpsA. Isolates that were discrepant in their MGIT/WGS results and a control group with concordant results were retested in the MGIT, at the critical concentration and a lower concentration, and incubated for up to 45 days after the control tube became positive in the MGIT. RESULTS: In total, 1136 isolates were included, of which 1121 were routine MTBC isolates from the Netherlands. The negative predictive value of WGS was ≥99.3% for all four first-line antibiotics. The majority of discrepancies for isoniazid and ethambutol were explained by growth at the lower concentrations, and for rifampicin by prolonged incubation in the MGIT, both indicating low-level resistance. CONCLUSIONS: Applying WGS in a country like the Netherlands, with a low TB incidence and low prevalence of resistance, can reduce the need for phenotypic DST for ∼90% of isolates and accurately detect mutations associated with low-level resistance, often missed in conventional DST.
