Filter by:Two commonly used treatments for latent tuberculosis infection are either 4 months rifampicin or 6-9 months isoniazid. The invistigators will study the risk of acquisition of rifampicin resistance in commensal Staphylococcus aureus in persons treated with rifampicin versus in persons treated with isoniazide. Through repeated swab cultures before, during, and after treatment the investigators will also investigate potential accumulation of mutations associated with rifampicin resistance over time. Finally, household contacts to persons with rifampicin-resistant S. aureus will be examined to investigate whether onward transmission of rifampicin-resistant S. aureus occurs within households.
The goal of this study is to test a new way to diagnose and track treatment of spine infections caused by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus.
There is a variety of in vitro, in vivo (animal model), and human case series data which suggests that the addition of ertapenem to cefazolin could improve outcomes in methicillin-susceptible S. aureus bacteremia. No randomized controlled trial has been performed. This study is an approved sub-study of The Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform (SNAP) trial (NCT05137119)
This is a Phase I/IIa trial designed to evaluate topical bacteriophage therapy in patients with diabetic foot ulcers.
This is a Phase 1, first time in human study enrolling approximately 42 healthy adult subjects (18-45 yrs) from one study site. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK of MW14 in healthy adult volunteers administered as a single IV dose compared with placebo, across 5 cohorts. The 5 dose cohorts will enroll sequentially. Subjects will be followed for safety from the time of Informed Consent through 85 days post dose.
A Phase I/IIa, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, exploratory efficacy and exposure of LTX-109 administered topically to the anterior nares in subjects with persistent carriage of S. aureus (methicillin-susceptible S. aureus [MSSA] and/or methicillin-resistant S. aureus [MRSA]).
Staphylococcus aureus osteoarticular infections, in particular those associated with the presence of implant, relapse in 20% of cases. Currently, the reasons for these relapses are poorly understood, whether on the microbiological or clinical side. The aim of this study is to improve knowledge on persistence of mechanisms of S. aureus
Given the paucity of pharmacological data on cefazolin treatment of Methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) complicated S. aureus infection (CSAI), the primary purpose of this study is to investigate the probability of pharmacological target attainment (in the blood and infected tissue) with standard intermittent bolus administration of cefazolin in patients with CSAI caused by MSSA by determining plasma concentrations of cefazolin and exact Minimum inhibitory concentration (MICs) of the causative MSSA strains in patients with various disease severities (e.g. critically ill vs. noncritically ill patients). - Sub-study quantitative measurement of Torque Teno virus (TTV): The primary purpose of this sub-study is to describe the viral kinetics of TTV in CSAI patients and to explore the association of TTV viremia with clinical outcomes and molecular markers of activation of the immune system. - Sub-study investigating antibiotic concentrations in sweat as a non-invasive therapeutic drug monitoring
Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase-negative staphylococcus belonging to the human commensal cutaneous flora, and has been little studied in the field of prosthetic joint infections. However, it shares many virulence traits with Staphylococcus aureus, including many adhesins and its ability to form biofilm, and the few series of cases reports a significant failure rate.
Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CoNS) belonging to the normal human skin flora. It is responsible for a wide variety of infections, such as skin and soft tissue infections, bone and joint infections, but also bacteraemia and endocarditis. Although the implication of S. lugdunensis in infectious diseases is proven, many questions remain both in terms of clinical and molecular epidemiology. In this context, INHOSTAL is the first prospective, bicentric study, which will comprehensively include all patients with S. lugdunensis infection (based on microbiological and clinical data) in two French university hospitals. The main objective of this study is thus to determine the incidence of S. lugdunensis infections in hospitalized patients. Moreover, the originality of this project is to compare the characteristics of S. lugdunensis infections with those of infections caused by S. aureus and other species of CoNS. Thereby, the clinical epidemiology of these infections will be compared (i.e. types of infection, mode of acquisition, host risk factors…). Finally, complete genome of all S. lugdunensis strains will be sequenced using Illumina technology and analyzed to describe the molecular epidemiology as well as the molecular mechanisms of antibiotic resistance (compared to antibiotic susceptibility evaluated by minimum inhibitory concentrations determined by Sensititre technique). This will enable to identify if predominant clones exist, and if some strains are spreading into the hospital. The duration of the study period will be 18 months, to allow the inclusion of a total of 300 patients: 100 S. lugdunensis infections, as well as 100 S. aureus infections and 100 other species of CoNS infections.
