About this study

Official title: Screening for Colonization With Resistant Enterobacterales in Neutropenic Patients With Hematologic Malignancies (SCENE)

This is a prospective, observational cohort study to assess the frequency with which neutropenic patients with hematologic malignancies and hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients are colonized with fluoroquinolone-resistant Enterobacterales (FQRE) and the clinical impact of FQRE colonization.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, observational cohort study to assess the frequency with which neutropenic patients with hematologic malignancies and hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients are colonized with fluoroquinolone-resistant Enterobacterales (FQRE) and the clinical impact of FQRE colonization.

The investigator will collect perianal swabs from patients receiving induction chemotherapy for acute leukemia or undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT), and who are receiving fluoroquinolone (FQ) prophylaxis. FQRE colonization will be assessed by culture, and the investigator will correlate FQRE colonization with the risk of Gram-negative bacteremia during neutropenia.

Population: 410 adults with acute leukemia who are receiving induction chemotherapy and HCT recipients who are receiving FQ prophylaxis during neutropenia.

Results of this study will be combined with a portion of subject data from an identically-designed R01-funded study of FQRE colonization. The combined data will be used for study analysis and reporting.

What is being measured

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

  1. Gram-negative bloodstream infection (BSI)

    Gram-negative BSI during the episode of neutropenia

    Measured: Until neutrophil recovery or 30 days after collection of the first swab in patients who do not have neutrophil recovery by 30 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Colonization with FQRE and ESBL-E

    Colonization with fluoroquinolone-resistant Enterobacterales (FQRE) and Extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) upon initiation of chemotherapy

    Measured: Within 4 days after initiation of chemotherapy

  2. Fever

    Occurrence (Yes/No) of fever (≥38.0°C) during the episode of neutropenia.

    Measured: Until neutrophil recovery or 30 days after collection of the first swab in patients who do not have neutrophil recovery by 30 days

  3. Bloodstream infection (BSI)

    Any BSI during the episode of neutropenia

    Measured: Until neutrophil recovery or 30 days after collection of the first swab in patients who do not have neutrophil recovery by 30 days

  4. Intensive care unit (ICU) admission

    Intensive care unit admission prior to recovery from neutropenia

    Measured: Prior to neutrophil recovery or 30 days after collection of the first swab in patients who do not have neutrophil recovery by 30 days

  5. 90-day mortality

    90-day mortality from the collection of the first swab

    Measured: Occurs within 90 days from the collection of the first swab

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hematologic Malignancy and Leukemia, Acute, run by Duke University at 6 sites in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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 6 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. 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?

Gram-negative bloodstream infection (BSI) (time frame: Until neutrophil recovery or 30 days after collection of the first swab in patients who do not have neutrophil recovery by 30 days). 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 6 Apr 2022.
