Trial summary

This study concerns patients having had an infection on their prosthesis (hip, knee,..) and for whom a 2-step exchange of prosthesis has been done. A 2-step exchange consists in explantation of the prosthesis and implementation of a spacer at the first stage, and reimplantation of a new prosthesis in a second stage. Read more about this study

About this study

This study concerns patients having had an infection on their prosthesis (hip, knee,..) and for whom a 2-step exchange of prosthesis has been done.

A 2-step exchange consists in explantation of the prosthesis and implementation of a spacer at the first stage, and reimplantation of a new prosthesis in a second stage. Patients with late prosthetic joint infection are at risk for superinfection at the time of reimplantation.

The aim is to determine the microbiological epidemiology in patients experiencing failure following reimplantation to establish, based on the drug susceptibilities, which cement could be the most active.

What is being measured

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

  1. rate of treatment failure

    Treatment failure is defined by local clinical and/or microbiological relapse; and/or need for additional surgery; death of septic origin

    Measured: Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. rate of bacteria involved in microbiological failure

    description of microbiological failure : bacteria responsible of microbiological failure

    Measured: Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption)

  2. rate of clinical failure

    description of clinical failure

    Measured: Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone and Joint Infection and Bacterial Infections, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon.

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 13 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

rate of treatment failure (time frame: Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption)). 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 13 Aug 2018.
