Plain-language summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of bedaquiline (BDQ) compared with rifamycin when administered as part of a treatment regimen with clarithromycin (CAM) and ethambutol (EB) in adult participants with treatment-refractory Mycobacterium avium complex-lung disease (MAC-LD) at Week 24 for microbiological assessment in mycobacteria growth indicator tube (MGIT).

Inclusion Criteria:

* Has radiological evidence consistent with nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease (NTM-LD) based on a chest Computed Tomography (CT) scan taken within 6 months prior to screening or at screening
* Has at least 2 positive sputum cultures of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) (sputum cultures to be taken at least 4 weeks apart): one obtained within 12 months prior to screening, which was documented while being treated for Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease (MAC-LD) for a total of at least 6 months; and one at screening (by central microbiology laboratory)
* Received at least 6 months of consecutive MAC-LD treatment (at least 2 antibiotics for MAC, including a macrolide), that is either ongoing or has stopped within 12 months prior to screening
* No presence of cognitive dysfunction that would impact the completion of the patient reported outcome (PRO) assessments
Exclusion Criteria:
* Had previous exposure to bedaquiline (BDQ)
* Has active Tuberculosis (TB) disease
* Has cystic fibrosis, medically unstable respiratory disease (for example, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchiectasis, asthma)
* Has one or more cavities \>=2 centimeter (cm) in diameter on a chest CT scan taken within 6 months prior to screening or at screening
* Treatment already includes an injectable/inhaled aminoglycoside within 3 months prior to screening or the investigator d…
