About this study

Official title: A Comparative Efficacy Study of Vancomycin Dosage Adjustment by Equation-based Method and Vancomycin Trough Concentration Method for Treatment of Infections Caused by Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus

An open-label randomized controlled trial to compare two vancomycin dosage adjustment methods

Read the detailed description

An open-label randomized controlled trial to compare two vancomycin dosage adjustment methods; a vancomycin trough concentration method and a equation-based method.

Being tested
Vancomycin equation-based method, Vancomycin trough concentration method
Keywords
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Vancomycin

What participants receive

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

  • Vancomycin equation-based methodDrug

    Also called intervention arm

    Vancomycin dosage will be adjusted according to the equation-based method

  • Vancomycin trough concentration methodDrug

    Also called control arm

    Vancomycin dosage will be adjusted according to the trough concentration method

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical response

    Clinical response will be evaluated at the end of therapy (EOT) by a clinician investigator. Clinical response will be classified as good clinical response, partial clinical response, poor clinical response and undetermined.

    Measured: End of therapy (an average of 2 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Renal adverse event

    Double serum creatinine

    Measured: Day 5 after vancomycin therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Vancomycin equation-based method and Vancomycin trough concentration method in people with Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus, run by Pinyo Rattanaumpawan 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 7 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2018. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact pinyo rattanaumpawan, md (897778176, pinyo.rat@mahidol.ac.th), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical response (time frame: End of therapy (an average of 2 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 26 Jan 2018.
