Antimicrobial resistance is a major global problem, particularly in hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). Gram-negative bacilli (GNB), including Enterobacterales, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii, are among the most common pathogens associated with multidrug resistance and HAIs. These bacteria are of special concern because few therapeutic options are available. Traditionally, the duration of treatment for severe multidrug-resistant (MDR)-GNB infections is 14 days. Studies of severe infections by GNB, regardless of susceptibility profile, have shown that shorter antimicrobial treatments are not inferior to traditional durations of therapy and are associated with a lower incidence of adverse effects. However, there are currently no studies assessing whether shorter duration of antimicrobial treatment is effective for MDR-GNB. This open-label, randomized clinical trial aims to assess the non-inferiority of 7-day antibiotic therapy compared to conventional 14-day treatment in severe infections by MDR-GNB.
The Investigators aim to study the outcomes of serious infections due to vancomycin susceptible infections in gram-positive organisms susceptible to vancomycin in people who use drugs (PWUD). The Investigators hypothesize, that a simplified 2-dose dalbavancin regimen, will improve compliance with antimicrobial therapy and that it may facilitate engagement in the treatment of the underlying substance use disorder, and particularly injection drug use - often the true etiology behind these severe infections.
The purpose of this superiority study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of exebacase in addition to standard of care antibiotics (SoCA) compared with SoCA alone for the treatment of patients with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bloodstream infections (BSI), including right-sided infective endocarditis (IE). Patients will be randomized to receive a single intravenous dose of exebacase or placebo. Patients will receive SoCA selected by the investigators based on the protocol. Exebacase, a direct lytic agent, is an entirely new treatment modality against S. aureus. Exebacase is a recombinantly-produced, purified cell wall hydrolase enzyme that results in rapid bacteriolysis, potent biofilm eradication, synergy with antibiotics, low propensity for resistance, and the potential to suppress antibiotic resistance when used together with antibiotics. Exebacase represents a first-in-field, first-in-class treatment with the potential to improve clinical outcome when used in addition to SoCA to treat S. aureus BSI including IE.
Primary objective of the study is to establish the incidence of all any catheter related complications in BIP CVC and standard CVC groups in patients requiring CVC. (CVC - Central Venous Catheter; BIP - Bactiguard Infection Protection)
Background: Despite management improvement in lasts years, S.aureus bacteremia leads to high morbidity and mortality. For over 50 years, methicillin-susceptible S.aureus (MSSA) bacteremia standard treatment was cloxacillin. Previous studies using different therapies and combination treatment fall to improve survival in these patients. Aim: to demonstrate the efficacy of the cloxacillin and fosfomycin combination administered during the first week of treatment, compared with cloxacillin monotherapy in patients with MSSA bacteremia in treatment success. Methods: A multicentre, superiority, open-label, randomized, phase IV-III, two-armed parallel (1:1) groups clinical trial. Adult patients with MSSA bacteremia will be randomized to Combination therapy group: patients will receive intravenous cloxacillin 2g/4h and fosfomycin 3 g/6h for the duration of 7 days treatment, or Standard therapy group: patients will receive intravenous cloxacillin 2g/4h for the duration of 7 days IV treatment. After the first week, antibiotic treatment and duration will be decided by responsible clinician following clinical practice. The primary endpoint is the treatment success measured at day 7 of treatment; a composite endpoint defined by all of the following criteria met after randomization: patient alive at day 7 AND stable or improved quick SOFA score (compared with baseline) at day 7 AND fever resolved at day 7 AND negative blood cultures for S. aureus at day 7. In case of achieving statistical differences in the primary endpoint, investigators will perform a hierarchical analysis of the treatment success at Test of Cure visit (TOC, 12 weeks after randomization), defined by the presence of all of the following: patient alive at TOC AND no evidence of microbiological treatment failure defined as isolation of S. aureus from blood culture or other sterile site from day 8 after randomization until TOC. Investigators have assumed a 74% of treatment success in monotherapy group. Accepting an alpha risk of 0.05 and a beta risk of 0.2 in a two-sided test, 183 subjects are necessary in first group and 183 in the second to find a statistically significant difference of 12%. It has been anticipated a drop-out rate of 5%. Discussion: Randomized studies assessing efficacy of different treatment in MSSA bacteremia are lacking. This study could help to improve knowledge about MSSA bacteremia and whether combined treatment with cloxacillin and fosfomycin could improve outcomes compared with standard treatment.
Over the last decade, there has been great emphasis on reducing the incidence of hospital-acquired infections, including catheter-associated UTI (CAUTI). This study will evaluate the effectiveness of Betadine irrigation solution (2% povidone-iodine) instilled into the bladder immediately prior to indwelling catheter removal to decrease the risk of subsequent bacteriuria, leading to decreased rates of NHSN defined CAUTI.
CALIF study is a monocentric observational study which aim is to analyse the value of adding procalcitonin (PCT, a pre-hormon increased in bacterial infection and septicaemia) in the management of chemo-induced febrile neutropenia occurring in patient with solid tumour. Febrile neutropenia will be managed according to international guidelines. PCT will be dosed at initial presentation. Primary objective is to determine the optimal value of PCT for the detection of septicaemia in low risk (according to MASCC score). The investigators plan also to compare two risk stratification scores: the validated MASCC score and a recently developed score which includes PCT and other more objective items.
This study will compare dalbavancin to standard of care (SOC) antibiotic therapy for the completion of therapy in patients with complicated bacteremia or infective endocarditis.
This study is performed to evaluate safety and to explore the efficacy of a single intravenous dose of N-Rephasin® SAL200 (3 mg/kg) in addition to the conventional standard treatment, for persistent Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia in patients, for more than 48 hours even after antibiotic treatment to which Staphylococcus aureus is susceptible.
