About this study

Different mechanisms have been proposed to explain the pathophysiology of chronic staphylococcal BJI, including biofilm formation and the ability of staphylococci to be internalized and to survive within cells. The intracellular localization of staphylococci is well documented by in vitro studies, however, few studies have shown the presence of intracellular staphylococci in clinical specimens from patients with BJI.

The aim of the CRISBO study is to document the clinical relevance of intracellular staphylococci in the context of BJI. Immunostaining targeting staphylococci and components will be carried out on tissue samples taken from patients with BJI during their treatment (samples similar to those used for routine diagnosis in pathology). Our objectives are to identify whether intracellular staphylococci are observable in these samples and if so, in which cell type (s) are they housed.

What is being measured

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

  1. detection of intracellular staphylococci

    to explore if intracellular staphylococci can be observed on samples of patient having an osteo-articular infection with staphylococci

    Measured: 2 months

  2. rate of localisation of intracellular staphylococci

    to explore where in what type of celles they can be observed on samples of patient having an osteo-articular infection with staphylococci

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone and Joint Infection and Staphylococcus, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon 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 19 Dec 2025. 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?

detection of intracellular staphylococci (time frame: 2 months). 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 19 Dec 2025.
