Trial summary

The objective of this study is to describe the pharmacokinetics of tigecycline in critically ill patients receiving continuous venovenous haemodialysis (CVVHD) and to evaluate the frequency of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment with high dosing strategy (200 mg loading dose and 100 mg/12h).

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics of High-dose Tigecycline in Critically Ill Patients: an Observational, Prospective Study

The objective of this study is to describe the pharmacokinetics of tigecycline in critically ill patients receiving continuous venovenous haemodialysis (CVVHD) and to evaluate the frequency of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment with high dosing strategy (200 mg loading dose and 100 mg/12h).

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective observational study performed on critically ill patients. Inclusion criteria are: severe sepsis on admission requiring broad-spectrum antibiotics. Both medical and surgical patients will be included. Any type of infections will be included (pulmonary, abdominal, urinary tract, etc.) Antibiotics regimen includes: tigecycline (200 mg every 12 hours intravenously), meropenem (2 grams every 8 hours intravenously).

Blood samples (3 mL) will be collected 2, 4, 8 and 12 hours after each dose of tigecycline for 3 consecutive days. The standard arterial canula will be used to obtain samples.

In each case CVVHD will be started and continued for at least 3 days' period. 30 minutes after a collection each sample will be centrifuged for 10 minutes at 3,000 rpms. Subsequently, supernatant will be collected and frozen.

Serum tigecycline concentration will be measured with high performance liquid chromatography.

Each patient's hemodynamics parameters will be recorded with the use of transpulmonary thermodilution technique (PICCO). Other therapies i.e.: ventilatory support, sedation, an antifungal agent will be given as required.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT03034174
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
tigecyclineEach patient will receive: tigecycline (200 mg q 12 hours i.v.), meropenem (2 g q 8 hours i.v). In each case CVVHD will be started. Blood samples (3 mL) will be collected 2, 4, 8 and 12 hours after each dose of tigecycline for 3 consecutive days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Serum concentration of tigecycline

    Samples obtain from ICU patients 2, 4, 8 12 hours after each dose of tigecycline for 3 days.

    Measured: 72 hours for each patient from the tigecycline treatment initiation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Septic Shock and Antibiotic Resistant Infection, run by Medical University of Lublin at 1 site in Poland.

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 4 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 24 Nov 2023. 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 Poland. 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?

Serum concentration of tigecycline (time frame: 72 hours for each patient from the tigecycline treatment initiation.). 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 24 Nov 2023.
