Trial summary

Acute pyelonephritis (APN) corresponds to infections of the renal parenchyma. The annual incidence of these infections is estimated at 4-6 million cases in France, with 60 to 90% of patients managed in general city medicine. Read more about this study

About this study

Acute pyelonephritis (APN) corresponds to infections of the renal parenchyma. The annual incidence of these infections is estimated at 4-6 million cases in France, with 60 to 90% of patients managed in general city medicine. The ceftriaxone, parenteral third-generation cephalosporin (C3G), occupies an important place in the antibiotic treatment of these infections: this is the recommended probabilistic treatment, and in some situations the treatment can be continued in its entirety via a Ceftriaxone monotherapy.

The aim of the last antibiotic plan is to avoid the use of antibiotic therapies with a high selection capacity (cephalosporins, penicillins, fluoroquinolones, etc.) and thus reduce the incidence and prolongation over time of the digestive carriage of multi-resistant bacteria .

Read more

To date, there have been few studies evaluating the impact of ceftriaxone on the emergence of multi-resistant bacteria on an individual scale, with rather heterogeneous results (13-86% C3G resistance).

Thus, before considering randomized studies comparing the ecological impact of different molecules or therapeutic regimens in the treatment of ANP, it is necessary to have a precise and rigorous evaluation of the ecological impact of the molecule reference in this indication.

The investigators propose a study to evaluate the impact on the digestive flora at 1 month of a ceftriaxone antibiotic therapy (7 days) in the management of acute pyelonephritis in women.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ceftriaxone in people with Pyelonephritis Acute, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice 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 3 inclusion and 8 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 18 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Emergence of ceftriaxone-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (time frame: at 28 days). 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 18 Nov 2023.
