Trial summary

Bacterial resistance to antibiotics has been a growing therapeutic problem since the late 1980s. Resistant strains of pathogenic bacteria can arise through initial selection of resistant strains in the commensal flora. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Parameters Associated With the Emergence of Resistance to Ciprofloxacin in Human Commensal Flora

Bacterial resistance to antibiotics has been a growing therapeutic problem since the late 1980s. Resistant strains of pathogenic bacteria can arise through initial selection of resistant strains in the commensal flora. The emergence of fluoroquinolone resistance in the commensal flora will be assessed in 48 healthy volunteers receiving variable doses of ciprofloxacin during 14 days. Emergence of resistance will be correlated to pharmacokinetic characteristics of ciprofloxacin.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ciprofloxacin in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: terminated). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Occurrence of bacterial resistance in commensal flora. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00190151, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Sep 2012.
