Filter by:This will be a pilot single-arm study consisting of 15 participants evaluating the use of oritavancin in the final consolidation phase (last two weeks of treatment) of systemic infections with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) in opioid users. The purpose of this pilot proposal is to collect information for a subsequent large, randomized intervention. Primary endpoints will be 1) Safety and tolerability, and 2) Duration of hospitalization and rate of recurrence.
Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB) plays an important role in long-course antibiotic therapy. Current international guidelines recommend fourteen days of intravenous antibiotic treatment for SAB in order to minimize risks of secondary deep infections and complications. However, patients with simple SAB are known to have a low risk of complications. Reducing treatment length in uncomplicated SAB would reduce the total consumption of antibiotics, adverse events and duration of hospital admission. SAB7 seeks to determine if seven days of antibiotic treatment in patients with uncomplicated SAB is non-inferior to fourteen days of treatment. Method: The study is designed as a randomized, non-blinded, non-inferiority interventional study. Primary measure of outcome will be failure to treatment or recurrence of SAB twelve weeks after termination of antibiotic treatment. As a measure of secondary outcome the prevalence of severe adverse effects will be evaluated, in particular secondary infection with Clostridium difficile, mortality as well as public health related costs. Patients identified with uncomplicated SAB, are randomized 1:1 in two parallel arms to seven or fourteen days of antimicrobial treatment, respectively. Endpoints will be tested with a statistical non-inferiority margin of 10%. Conclusion: SAB 7 will determine if seven days of antibiotic treatment in patients with uncomplicated SAB is sufficient and safe, potentially modifying current treatment recommendations.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK) of CF-301 in addition to background standard of care (SOC) antibacterial therapy for the treatment of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bloodstream infections (bacteremia), including endocarditis in adults. Patients will be randomized to receive a single intravenous dose of CF-301 or placebo in addition to SOC antibacterial therapy. Patients will be prescribed standard of care antibiotics selected by the investigators based on their professional experience, practice guidelines and local antibiotic susceptibility information for the treatment of S. aureus bacteremia. CF-301 is a lysin and member of a new class of targeted protein-based antimicrobials that has demonstrated activity against S. aureus in laboratory (in vitro) and animal studies, alone and in addition to conventional antibiotics.
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of ceftobiprole medocaril versus a comparator in the treatment of patients with complicated Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB).
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.
Background: Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB) is frequently encountered in hospitals, with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Duration of antimicrobial treatment for SAB, other than in cases of Infective endocarditis (IE), recommended by different guidelines relies on risk stratification for relapse of infection rather than definite diagnosis of septic foci that eventually determine the relapse rate. In recently published studies fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET CT was found to be a sensitive imaging test for identifying metastatic infectious foci in Gram-positive bacteremia, including SAB. Objectives: To examine the impact of using FDG PET CT in the diagnostic algorithm of non-IE SAB compared to standard treatment recommendations on treatment duration and clinical outcomes. Methods: A prospective interventional non-comparative cohort study conducted at Rambam Health Care Campus. Patients with SAB, defined as microbiologically and clinically, will undergo FDG PET CT 10-14 days following the first positive blood culture for diagnosis of septic extra-cardiac foci of infection. Patients with IE will be excluded. Short (2 weeks) versus long treatment (4-6 weeks) will be recommended for negative and positive PET CT tests, respectively. Patients will be followed-up for 1 year for relapse of infection and mortality. We will document the sensitivity and specificity of PET CT for detection of complications among patients with SAB. We will examine the percentage of patients in whom the use of PET CT changed treatment duration compared to standard recommendations. We will compare also, the relapse rate and 1 year mortality rate with data from previous studies and local data. Assuming a 15% rate of management changes compared to consensus recommendations, a sample of 150 patients will achieve the required 95% CI. Significance: Our trial will serve for improving decision making in patients with non-IE SAB, shortening treatment duration in unnecessary cases and decreasing relapse rate by giving prolonged appropriate treatment for metastatic infection not identified by standard management algorithms. PET CT is assuming an increasingly important role in infection diagnosis and management. The current study will be the first to examine the role of PET CT in directing management of patients with SAB.
This study will evaluate the maximum safe dose of the true human monoclonal antibody, 514G3, in the treatment of patients with Staphylococcus Aureus bacteremia. Preliminary evidence of efficacy will be evaluated as well. Patients will receive 514G3 plus antibiotics or placebo plus antibiotics in approximately a 3 to 1 ratio.
The purpose of this evaluation is to record the management and outcome of adults with S.aureus bacteraemia (SAB) across multiple European, Asian and North American sites and to identify key quality indicators associated with improved outcome.
