Trial summary

Pneumococcal meningitis is an infection of the membrane that covers the brain. It is a serious infection which is currently treated with a combination of corticosteroids (dexamethasone) and 3rd generation cephalosporins. Nevertheless, complications associated with meningitis are relatively frequent and severe. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Adjunction of Daptomycin for the Treatment of Pneumococcal Meningitis: AddaMAP Study

Pneumococcal meningitis is an infection of the membrane that covers the brain. It is a serious infection which is currently treated with a combination of corticosteroids (dexamethasone) and 3rd generation cephalosporins. Nevertheless, complications associated with meningitis are relatively frequent and severe. Recent animal studies have shown that another antibiotic, daptomycin, can reduce the mortality and long-term effects of pneumococcal meningitis. Daptomycin is widely used worldwide in humans for other diseases, with few side effects.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of daptomycin on the proliferation of the bacterial infection, and therefore on inflammation. Daptomycin will be added to the currently recommended treatment with the same dosage used for other diseases.

Roughly 130 patients with suspected pneumococcal meningitis admitted to the emergency departments of hospitals throughout France will be asked to participate in this study.

The participation period will last approximately 3 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disability-free survival, assessed with the modified Rankin Scale (mRS)

    Measured: At Day 30

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Overall mortality

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  2. Disability level assessed with the mRS in surviving patients

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  3. Disability level assessed with the Glascow Coma Scale and the Glasgow Outcome Scale in the overall efficacy population

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  4. Disability level assessed with mini-mental score in surviving patients

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  5. Hearing loss assessed with the Hearing Handicap Inventory test

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  6. Hearing loss assessed with audiometry

    Measured: At Day 30

  7. Hearing loss assessed with the Hearing-it test

    Measured: At Day 30

  8. Quality of life assessed with the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12)

    Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better physical and mental health functioning

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  9. Quality of life assessed with WHO QOL BREF

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  10. Number of days without hospitalisation (including ICU)

    Measured: At Day 30 and Day 90

  11. Number of days without antimicrobial therapy

    Measured: At Day 30

  12. Frequency and type of side effects related to daptomycine

    Measured: Within 30 days after daptomycin start

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Daptomycin in people with Pneumococcal Meningitis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon 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 7 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 1 Oct 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 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Disability-free survival, assessed with the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) (time frame: At Day 30). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03480191, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 1 Oct 2024.
