About this study
Official title: A Pilot Randomized Control Study of Shortening Antibiotic Treatment Duration For Asymptomatic Bacteriuria Within A Month After Kidney Transplantation
The major hypothesis to be tested is that there was no difference in the clinical outcome between 7(short-course) and 14(traditional-course) days of antibiotic treatment for asymptomatic bacteriuria early after kidney transplantation.
Read the detailed description
Introduction: Treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria is a common practice in renal transplant centers leading to prolong exposure of antimicrobial agents with long hospital length of stay. The duration of antibiotics treatment in this condition have never been proposed.
Objective: To evaluate the proper duration of antibiotic treatment for asymptomatic bacteriuria early (less than 1 month) after kidney transplantation
Method: This is a prospective, randomized, open labeled, single center study using intention to treat analysis. Patients will be identified and after informed consent is obtained, will be randomized to receive 7 or 14 days course of antibiotics.
- Conditions
- Kidney Transplantation, Bacteriuria, Asymptomatic Infections
- Being tested
- 7 days course of antibiotic treatment, 14 days course of antibiotic treatment
- Medical subject headings
- Bacteriuria, Asymptomatic Infections
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
7 days course of antibiotic treatmentDrug

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing 7 days course of antibiotic treatment and 14 days course of antibiotic treatment in people with Kidney Transplantation and Bacteriuria, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.
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 2 inclusion and 7 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 16 Mar 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 Thailand. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
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?
Composite end point of Symptomatic urinary tract infection, Sepsis, Graft function and Mortality rate (time frame: 1 month). 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 16 Mar 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
