About this study
Objective of the study is to test whether Daptomycin (6 mg/kg bodyweight) is non-inferior in treatment of severe diabetic foot infections (MRSA) in comparison to antibiotic treatment with Vancomycin (effective blood-plasma concentration of 15 mg/l). In case of microbiologically confirmed gram-negative co-infection effective antibiotic treatment according to microbiologic analysis will be administered upon medical decision in both therapy groups. The study will be carried out as a randomized, open label study.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Clinical Response of the Infection at Test-of-cure (TOC) at Day 14 Post Therapy
Clinical response of the infection at test-of-cure (TOC) at day 14 post therapy by doctoral's decision
For each of the patients included in the study the clinical outcome at TOC should be assessed using the following criteria:
Cure: resolution of all clinical signs and symptoms of infection and a healing wound after ≥ 5 days of therapy Improvement: resolution of ≥ 2 - but not all- clinical signs and symptoms of infection after ≥ 5 days of therapy (only used at the end of therapy) Failure: persistence or progression of baseline clinical signs and symptoms of infections after ≥ 2 days of therapy Missing: patients received therapy for less than 2 days Indeterminate: circumstances preclude classification
Duration of Treatment The duration of treatment will be evaluated as the number of inpatient and outpatient days the patient received antibiotic therapy, even if non-consecutive.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Daptomycin and Vancomycin in people with Diabetic Foot, run by Ruhr University of Bochum at 1 site in Germany.
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 7 inclusion and 11 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 Mar 2024. 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 Germany. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Mar 2024). 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?
Clinical Response of the Infection at Test-of-cure (TOC) at Day 14 Post Therapy (time frame: 14 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 18 Mar 2024.
