About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics of Ciprofloxacin in Critically Ill Patients - a Screening Study to Assess the Feasibility of Renal Function Markers to Predict Ciprofloxacin Clearance (CAPOEIRA)

Optimal understanding of ciprofloxacin pharmacokinetics in critically ill patients is lacking resulting in large variation of achieved exposure and possible inadequate therapy. The investigators hypothesize that drug dosing based on CKD-EPIcr-cys provides a useful method to individualize and optimize therapy for ciprofloxacin and eventually improve outcome.

In a multi-centre, observational, open-label study the investigators aim to define : the model for estimation of renal function that most accurately predicts ciprofloxacin clearance in critically ill patients.

Read the detailed description

Correct estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is necessary in critically ill patients in order to asses renal function. GFR is subsequently used to derive and appropriate drug dosing of renally excreted drugs and warrant adequate dose adaptations.

It is known that estimation of GFR based on creatinine clearance is not precise, especially in populations with altered muscle mass or instable renal function, such as the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) population.

The use of combined filtration markers together, cystatin C and creatinine, can improve precision in estimating GFR (eGFR). Studies confirmed that eGFR based on both creatinine and cystatin C is more precise than eGFR creatinine or eGFR cystatin C. The equation based on both creatinine and cystatin C, the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration creatinine-cystatin C (CKD-EPIcr-cys), may therefore improve eGFR and thus drug dosing in ICU patients, a population that does not reach PK/PD targets frequently.

So far little is known about drug dosing based on CKD-EPIcr-cys. Currently optimal understanding of ciprofloxacin pharmacokinetics in critically ill patients is lacking, resulting in large variation of achieved exposure and possible inadequate therapy. The investigators hypothesize that drug dosing based on CKD-EPIcr-cys provides a useful method to individualize and optimize therapy for ciprofloxacin and eventually improve outcome.

In a multi-centre, observational, open-label study the investigators aim to define the model for estimation of renal function that most accurately predicts ciprofloxacin clearance in critically ill patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bacterial Infections, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 4 sites in Netherlands.

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 5 inclusion and 2 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 19 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Netherlands. 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?

model for estimation of renal function that most accurately predicts ciprofloxacin clearance (time frame: Day 1 and day 2). 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 NCT03016845, 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 19 Oct 2020.
