About this study

Official title: Bacteriophages Effects on Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Presents in Sputum of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Patients

Pulmonary phage therapy to treat bacterial infections of the respiratory tract have been investigated in animals. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of bacteriophages in infecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) strains present in sputum samples. A cocktail of 10 bacteriophages will be applied on 60 sputum samples obtained from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients during 6 hours.We will determine the bacteria and bacteriophages strains in sputum samples collected. Then the sensitivity of individual colony will be tested.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) strains counts after 6 hours in presence of bacteriophage

    Measured: after 6 hours in presence of bacteriophage

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) strains counts after 24 hours in presence of bacteriophage

    Measured: after 24 hours in presence of bacteriophage

  2. Bacteriophage counts after 6 hours incubation within sputum samples

    Measured: after 6 hours incubation within sputum samples

  3. Sensitivity of individual Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) colonies to bacteriophages

    Measured: Sensitivity of individual PA colonies to bacteriophages

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Collection of induced sputum in order to evaluate the efficacy of a cocktail of 10 bacteriophages. in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 7 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 5 Sep 2013. 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 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?

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) strains counts after 6 hours in presence of bacteriophage (time frame: after 6 hours in presence of bacteriophage). 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 5 Sep 2013.
