Trial summary

Staphylococcus aureus represents the leading pathogen implicated in bone and joint infection (BJI), usually requiring prolonged combination antimicrobial therapy, which may be particularly challenging in the case of MDR bacteria and/or for patients with multiple drug intolerance.

About this study

Staphylococcus aureus represents the leading pathogen implicated in bone and joint infection (BJI), usually requiring prolonged combination antimicrobial therapy, which may be particularly challenging in the case of MDR bacteria and/or for patients with multiple drug intolerance. In the absence of new well-tolerated oral antistaphylococcal drugs, older antibiotics must be considered, such as the pristinamycin.

However, pristinamycin is not currently licensed for treatment of staphylococcal BJI and lack of clinical data prevents it from being considered as a reliable alternative therapeutic option in current guidelines.

The aim of this study is to evaluate pristinamycin (efficacy and tolerance) in the treatment of MSSA bone and joint infection (BJI).

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy of pristinamycin in MSSA bone and joint infection

    Outcome of patients having had pristinamycin is described in this part. The follow up of the patients after termination of antimicrobial treatment is almost 80 weeks.

    Treatment failure included: persisting infection under appropriate antimicrobial therapy, relapse after interruption of antimicrobial therapy, septic indication for surgical revision > 5 days after primary surgery, superinfection; and/or death, if related to the BJI or to complication of its management.

    Measured: 80 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Tolerance of pristinamycin in MSSA bone and joint infection

    The treatment duration could be long (several weeks) as pristinamycin is also used as a long-term suppressive therapy in BJI; thus, we can have 45 weeks of treatment with pristinamycin.

    Pristinamycin-related adverse events (AEs) occurring during follow-up were noted and classified according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE; National Cancer Institute, 2003). The accountability of pristinamycin in AE onset was left to the clinician's judgement, with the help of a pharmacovigilance specialist in doubtful cases.

    Measured: 45 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Methicillin Susceptible Staphylococcus Aureus (MSSA) Infection and Bone and Joint Infection, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 6 Jun 2017. 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?

Efficacy of pristinamycin in MSSA bone and joint infection (time frame: 80 weeks). 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 6 Jun 2017.
