About this study

Official title: Clindamycin - Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole for Pneumocystis Jiroveci Pneumonia After Solid Organ Transplantation Population (CTSTOP)

PCP is one of the common opportunistic infections in patients with HIV and non-HIV-associated immunodeficiency.With the increasing number of solid organ transplantation, how to effectively treat severe PCP after solid organ transplantation has become an urgent problem to be solved.In general, Atovaquone, Dapsone, and Clindamycin-primaquine can be used as second-line alternatives when TMP-SMX fails to treat HIV-PCP. Therefore, the objective of this study is to preliminarily investigate the safety and efficacy of low-dose TMP-SMX combined with clindamycin (CT regimen) for the treatment of severe PCP after solid organ transplantation.

PCP is one of the common opportunistic infections in patients with HIV and non-HIV-associated immunodeficiency.With the increasing number of solid organ transplantation, how to effectively treat severe PCP after solid organ transplantation has become an urgent problem to be solved.In general, Atovaquone, Dapsone, and Clindamycin-primaquine can be used as second-line alternatives when TMP-SMX fails to treat HIV-PCP. More and more studies suggest that clindamycin-based alternatives play an increasingly important role in treating of PCP. Therefore, the objective of this study is to preliminarily investigate the safety and efficacy of low-dose TMP-SMX combined with clindamycin (CT regimen) for the treatment of severe PCP after solid organ transplantation.

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?

oxygenation index (time frame: through study completion, an average of 20 days). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04328688, 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.
