About this study

Official title: Prospective Population Study on Candidemia in Spain (Estudio Poblacional Prospectivo Sobre Candidemia en España)

The aim of this study is to describe the epidemiology of fungal blood infections in Spain (with emphasis on the incidence, fungal species distribution and antifungal susceptibility). The study is to be performed in five big cities which represent different geographic areas: Barcelona, Bilbao, Madrid, Sevilla and Valencia.

What is being measured

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

  1. Describe fungemia epidemiology in Spain

    Recollection of demographic variables (age, gender and ethnic origin); clinical variables (background diseases, other coinfections, treatment received, etc) and microbiological information of the isolate.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Describe differences among cities and institutions

    Analyze results in function of the city and hospital where the isolate was obtained (5 cities in Spain and 29 participating hospitals)

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Definition of risk factors

    Determine risk factors for:

    • bad clinical evolution
    • infection by a specific Candida species
    • fluconazole resistant isolate
    • fungemia persistency

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Determination of the fungal isolates susceptibility to fluconazole, voriconazole, caspofungine, anidulafungine, micafungine and anfotericine B

    Analysis of resistant strains percentage according to the threshold established by CLSI to each specific antifungal

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Correlation between fungemia with a diminished susceptibility fungal strain and clinical evolution

    Chi-square and Kaplan-Meier survival curves

    Measured: 1 year

  5. Correlation between reference and commercial microbiological methods

    Comparison of results when a reference or a commercial fungal identification and antifungal susceptibility method is used.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fungemia, run by Fundacion SEIMC-GESIDA at 29 sites in Spain.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in Spain. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Describe fungemia epidemiology in Spain (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT01236261, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 23 Apr 2013.
