About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Piperacillin/Tazobactam in Adults Undergoing Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO)

This study is designed to provide preliminary data to determine if concentrations of piperacillin/tazobactam change in patients with severe respiratory failure receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The investigators hypothesize that patients will have significant changes in concentration measurements, specifically an increased clearance rate and increased volume of distribution, during ECMO as compared to critically ill patients.

Read the detailed description

In a healthy patient, the lungs provide oxygen to the blood and remove carbon dioxide. However, in patients with severe lung failure, blood may not adequately be delivered to the lungs, or the lungs may not adequately supply blood with oxygen. In this case, patients may require assistance from a machine to help provide this oxygen. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a device that acts as an artificial lung, allowing the patient to recover from their illness. Patients receiving support from ECMO are often put in a medically induced coma while their lungs heal. Certain drugs may stick to the internal surfaces of the machine; therefore leading to decreased concentrations. Patients receiving ECMO often require antimicrobials to treat severe infections. However, little data exist concerning the likely changes in drug concentrations from drug circuit interactions in adult patients receiving ECMO.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT03467854
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
VV ECMOPatients 18 years of age or older, initiated on veno-venous (VV) ECMO for acute respiratory distress syndrome, and receiving piperacillin/tazobactam.Four blood samples will be obtained after the first dose of piperacillin/tazobactam: one sample before the second dose, 30-minutes, 2-hours, and 6-hours into the infusion. An additional four blood samples will be drawn on day 2 at the same time points.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in clearance rate

    Measured: Up to 2 days after the first dose of piperacillin/tazobactam

  2. Change in volume of distribution

    Measured: Up to 2 days after the first dose of piperacillin/tazobactam

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Respiratory Failure With Hypoxia, run by Columbia University at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 2024. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Lack or eligible patients.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Change in clearance rate (time frame: Up to 2 days after the first dose of piperacillin/tazobactam). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Sep 2024.
