NCT ID: NCT04945434 Active, not recruiting - Osteomyelitis Clinical Trials

Clinical Effectiveness of S53P4 Bioactive Glass in Treatment of Long-bone Chronic Osteomyelitis

Start date: September 1, 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial studies the clinical effectiveness of S53P4 bioactive glass (BAG) as a bacterial growth inhibiting bone graft substitute in a one-stage or two-stage surgical procedure for treatment of chronic long bone osteomyelitis.

NCT ID: NCT04563325 Active, not recruiting - Osteomyelitis Clinical Trials

Oral-only Antibiotics for Bone and Joint Infections in Children

CHILD@HOME_BJI
Start date: September 15, 2020
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

A nationwide, multicenter, randomized, non-inferiority trial of children with bone and joint infections. The primary objective is to determine if oral-only antibiotics (experimental arm) is non-inferior to initial intravenous antibiotics followed by oral therapy (control arm). Children will be randomized 1:1. The total treatment duration is identical in both groups. The study is open label with blinding of the primary endpoint assessor.

Short or Long Antibiotic Regimes in Orthopaedics

SOLARIO
Start date: February 21, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Research question: If adults with bone or joint infection have local antibiotic therapy, can they do without prolonged treatment with antibiotics by mouth (oral) or injection? Adults with bone or joint infections are usually given long courses of oral antibiotics or into a vein (intravenous) following surgery. It is also safe to give antibiotics directly into the bone or joint at the time of surgery: this is called local antibiotic therapy. This study investigates whether using local antibiotic therapy would allow shorter courses of oral or intravenous antibiotics, in order to limit antibiotic resistance, side effects and cost. This study compares short against long courses of oral or intravenous antibiotics for adults who have been given appropriate local antibiotic therapy to treat bone or joint infection. Patients who can take part will be randomly divided into two groups within 7 days of surgery. One group will stop oral or intravenous antibiotics, while the other group will continue for 4 weeks or more (standard treatment). Adults with bone and joint infections who have already had surgery and local antibiotic therapy will be invited. Patients will not take part if they need intravenous antibiotics for another reason, or if their infection is caused by bacteria resistant to the antibiotic(s) used in their local antibiotic therapy. Main measurement: how many patients' infections return within 12 months after surgery. This will be decided by a group of doctors who do not know what treatment the patient received. Other important measurements: serious adverse events; side-effects; quality of life; cost of treatment. Patients will be asked questions at their usual clinic visits, and will be given a questionnaire at the start of treatment and 1 year later.

NCT ID: NCT03433287 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis

Chronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis - a Bacterial Cause?

Start date: November 1, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is an immune-mediated chronic inflammatory self- limiting disease with non-suppurative inflammation involving one or multiple bone foci. A bacterial etiology has not yet been proven, but the investigators hypothesize that CRMO is caused by chronic infection. Using existing knowledge of chronic infections combined with sensitive molecular techniques, the hope is to elucidate the cause of CRMO by proving or disproving bacteria as the underlying etiology. In addition, a novel method, 18F-NaF-PET/MRI, will be investigated as to which it can improve diagnosis of CRMO. The investigators hypothesize that 18F-NaF-PET/MRI will have higher diagnostic accuracy than 99m-diphosphonate planar bone scintigraphy and SPECT/CT.

NCT ID: NCT03134521 Active, not recruiting - Joint Infection Clinical Trials

Population Pharmacokinetic Analysis of Daptomycin in Patients With Osteoarticular Infections

Start date: December 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Daptomycin is validated as a treatment of bone and joint infections by the Infectious Disease Society of America. However, most of studies did not investigate daptomycin pharmacokinetics in this indication while it is known that efficacy and toxicity concentration studies show a close therapeutic margin. Evaluation of P-Glycoprotein (P-gp), a transmembrane transport protein, has demonstrated its influence on the concentration and intracellular activity of daptomycin. Recent work has linked the genetic polymorphism of P-gp to the pharmacokinetics of daptomycin, which may explain inter-individual variability but requires further explorations. Previous studies demonstrated existence of interindividual variabilities as sex, renal function and p-glycoprotein polymorphism couple with an intraindividual variabilities unexplained yet. A population approach will be used to determinate the pharmacokinetics factors, their intra and interindividual variabilities, the parameters associated to those variabilities (as the p glycoprotein). The investigator's goal is to evaluate different posology and to try to increase daptomycin efficacy and security in bone and joint infection.
