About this study

Official title: A Randomized Trial for the Safety and Effectiveness of a Novel Antimicrobial-Coated Foley Catheter Attached to an Antimicrobial Anti-Reflux Device for Reduction of Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection

The primary objective of this pilot study is to demonstrate the feasibility of recruiting eligible patients for the purposes of assessing the temporal aspects and rates of Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI), based on the agreed-upon case definition so that the numbers needed for a pivotal study can be better estimated.

Read the detailed description

This pilot study will be a prospective, single site, randomized clinical investigation comparing the safety and effectiveness of the ICET TIC antimicrobial Foley catheter, against the infection control standard-of-care, the BARD ® LUBRI-SIL® I.C. Foley catheter.

Approximately 160 patients will be screened. The study has been designed to enroll approximately 120 eligible subjects to obtain about 60 evaluable subjects (30 in each arm). Subjects who meet the eligibility criteria will be enrolled into the study and randomly assigned to the experimental or standard-of-care group in a 1:1 ratio.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ICET™ TIC Foley CatheterDevice

    Also called ICET™ TIC Foley Catheter Device (TIC System)

    The device to be evaluated in this investigation is a silver-based antimicrobial coated Foley catheter connected to an antimicrobial anti-reflux accessory (ICET Inc, Norwood, MA). The closed system is referred to as the TIC system and is designed with the objective of reducing the incidence of CAUTI. The accessory is non-tissue contacting.

  • BARD® LUBRI-SIL® IC Foley CatheterDevice

    Also called BARD ® LUBRI-SIL® I.C. Foley Catheter Device

    The LUBRI-SIL® I.C. antimicrobial 100% silicone Foley catheter incorporates a formulation consisting of BACTI-GUARD®* silver alloy coating and BARD® hydrogel.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Affected, During Treatment and Follow-up Time Periods, by a Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI) Event After First CAUTI Event.

    All randomized subjects will be followed until (1) up to 30th day from the time of catheterization or (2) the subject withdraws or is discharged from the hospital, whichever comes first and (3) 48 hours after the catheter is removed.

    Evaluable population (EP) refers to all randomized subjects successfully CZD \& stayed on the CZD for ≥ 48 ± 24 hours or more without any systemic (postoperative) antibiotic for CZD/non-CZD related reasons. Subjects receiving an intercurrent course of systemic antibiotics lasting >24 hours other than surgical prophylaxis were considered non-evaluable in all analyses of effectiveness endpoints using the EP.

    Measured: up to 30th day from the time of catheterization

  2. The Proportion of Subjects With at Least One CAUTI

    CAUTI is as determined by blinded investigator assessment per protocol definition.

    DAYS TO CAUTI = (DATE OF EVENT - DATE OF CZD INSERTION) + 1. Date of event for subjects who had CAUTI is the date of urine sample collection where the CAUTI criteria are met.

    Date of event for subjects who did not have CAUTI is the last available urine culture collection date from samples collected during \& post CZD.

    p-values of time of CAUTI were obtained from log-rank test. p-values of Incidence of CAUTI were obtained from the Logistic Regression Model.

    Evaluable population (EP) refers to all randomized subjects successfully CZD \& stayed on the CZD for ≥ 48 ± 24 hours or more without any systemic (postoperative) antibiotic for CZD/non-CZD related reasons. Subjects receiving an intercurrent course of systemic antibiotics lasting >24 hours other than surgical prophylaxis were considered non-evaluable in all analyses of effectiveness endpoints using the EP.

    CZD = Catheterized or catheter

    Measured: 48 ± 24 hours or more

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The Proportion of Subjects With Symptomatic Urinary Tract Infection (SUTI)

    Patients with catheter related SUTI are those having an indwelling urinary catheter in place at the time of specimen collection, or had an indwelling catheter within the previous 48 hours, and at least 1 of the following signs or symptoms with no other recognized cause: fever (>38°C), suprapubic tenderness, or costovertebral angle pain or tenderness and a positive urinalysis demonstrated by at least one of the following findings: a. positive dipstick for leukocyte esterase and/or nitrite, b. pyuria (urine specimen collected from the catheter with ≥10 white blood cells [WBC]/mm3 or ≥3 WBC/high power field of unspun urine), c. microorganisms seen on Gram stain of unspun urine and a positive urine

    Measured: up to 30th day from the time of catheterization

  2. The Proportion of Subjects With Asymptomatic Bacteremic Urinary Tract Infection (ABUTI)

    Patients having an indwelling urinary catheter who have no signs or symptoms (i.e., no fever (>38°C), no urgency, frequency, dysuria, suprapubic tenderness, or costovertebral angle pain or tenderness), and a positive urine culture from urine collected from the catheter sampling port (or a midstream voided clean catch urine in subjects being followed for 48 hours post catheter removal) of >105 CFU/ml with no more than 2 species of uropathogen microorganisms and a positive blood culture with at least 1 matching uropathogen microorganism to the urine culture.

    Measured: up to 30th day from the time of catheterization
