About this study

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term treatment with clarithromycin in patients with Non-tuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Infections.

Read the detailed description

Background: The revised 2007 American Thoracic Society/Infectious Diseases Society of America guidelines recommend a clarithromycin-based combination therapy for treatment of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung disease and stipulate approximately 1 year of continuous treatment after bacilli negative conversion. However, supporting data are insufficient.

Objectives: To obtain data on the clinical outcome of clarithromycin-based regimens by conducting a nationwide prospective study mainly of MAC lung disease.

Methods: In accordance with the guidelines, patients were enrolled in this survey according to their chest radiographic findings and microbiologic test results. They were treated with a multi-drug regimen including clarithromycin, rifampicin, and ethambutol (clarithromycin -based regimen) until bacilli negative conversion on continual treatment for 1 year. Data were collected "pre-administration," "on the bacilli negative conversion," and "at 6 months after the end of treatment."

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bacilli Negative Conversion Rate

    Number of participants who tested positive for Bacilli before treatment and converted to Bacilli Negative at any point during the treatment with clarithromycin

    Measured: During the treatment with clarithromycin, from 40 days to 1232 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Efficacy Evaluation Using the 4-rank Scale of "Effective", "Ineffective", "Deterioration", or "Impossible" by the Investigator

    Number of participants who evaluated for efficacy of clarithromycin with the 4-rank Scales ("Effective", "Ineffective", "Deterioration", "Impossible")

    Measured: When treatment with clarithromycin is discontinued, from 40 days to 1232 days

  2. Bacteriological Relapse Related to Duration of Clarithromycin Administration

    Number of patients who have bacteriological relapse related to duration of Clarithromycin (CLR) administration after initial negative conversion

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mycobacterium Infections, Atypical, run by Mylan Inc. at 59 sites in Japan.

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 59 sites in Japan. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Sep 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Bacilli Negative Conversion Rate (time frame: During the treatment with clarithromycin, from 40 days to 1232 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 31 Mar 2022.
