About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Colistin in Critically Ill Patients With Severe Infections for Dose Optimization Study

Phase II clinical trial, open-labelled, prospective and single-center study directed to obtain blood samples in experimental detailed conditions in order to compare and optimize the dose of colistin in critically ill patients suffering from infections on which the indication of colistin would be accepted according to normal local protocols for severe infections treatment.

Keywords
infections, multidrug resistant Gram negative bacteria (MDR-GNB), Skin infections, Pneumonia, Bacteriemia, Nosocomial infections

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetic profile; Cmax (maximum reach concentration)/ MIC( Minimum inhibitory concentration) >10

    Plasma concentration will be measured for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile the samples were drawn at 60, 120, 180, 240, 360, and 480 min after the end of the loading dose infusion and in patients of the group B, two more samples are taken at 600 and 720 min after the loading dose. Main pharmacokinetic parameters will be Cmax (maximum reach concentration)/ MIC(Minimum inhibitory concentration)>10

    Measured: Day 1 and day 3 after treatment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of drug adverse reactions

    All study drug related adverse reactions will be gathered and communicated.

    Measured: 21 days of follow-up

  2. Pharmacodynamic profile ("Monte-Carlo simulation" (statistical methodology) with MIC (Minimum inhibitory concentration) 50 y MIC (Minimum inhibitory concentration) 90 from samples isolation)

    "Monte-Carlo simulation" (statistical methodology) with MIC (Minimum inhibitory concentration) 50 y MIC (Minimum inhibitory concentration) 90 from samples isolation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Colistin 6 million units + 240mg/8h and Colistin 6 million units + 360mg/12h in people with Critical Illness, run by Fundación Pública Andaluza para la gestión de la Investigación en Sevilla at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 5 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 3 Feb 2016. 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Pharmacokinetic profile; Cmax (maximum reach concentration)/ MIC( Minimum inhibitory concentration) >10 (time frame: Day 1 and day 3 after treatment). 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 3 Feb 2016.
