About this study

Official title: Population Pharmacokinetics Modeling : a Priori Optimization of Amikacin First Dose in Critically Ill Patients Using a Nomogram

The aim of this study is to elaborate nomograms to optimize amikacine first dosing in critically ill patients, using a population pharmacokinetics model elaborated with multicentric data.

Read the detailed description

French guidelines recommend for probabilistic therapy to reach an amikacin concentration 1 hour after beginning the infusion ≥ 60 mg/L. This target is rarely achieved in the ICU despite a 30 mg/kg recommended dosage. Using data collected prospectively in critically ill patients of Nîmes (France) (1) and Nantes (France), we will elaborate a population pharmacokinetic model on the non-parametric software Pmetrics and on the parametric software Monolix. We will calculate probability of target attainment of Monte-Carlo simulations, using the non-parametric model. Nomograms to determine optimal first dose of amikacin in critically ill patients, according to a few variables previously identified, will be produced.

What is being measured

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

  1. amikacin infusion

    Target is defined as 8 times x Minimal Inhibatory Concentration for MIC = 4 mg/L and MIC = 8 mg/L. Those PTA will be calculated using the final pharmacokinetics model, according to the dependent variables.

    Measured: one hour after beginning of infusion.ed

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. maximal dose of amikacin (in mg) allowed to have a probability of target attainment (PTA) of 50% or less for the trough concentration.

    Target is 2.5 mg/L. Those PTA will be calculated using the final pharmacokinetics model, according to the dependent variables.

    Measured: 24 hours after beginning of infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pharmacokinetics, run by Nantes University Hospital 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 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 25 Sep 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 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.

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?

amikacin infusion (time frame: one hour after beginning of infusion.ed). 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 NCT03683511, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 25 Sep 2018.
