Trial summary

The mortality in patients with sepsis and severe acute kidney injury requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) remains high. Antibiotic therapy is a key treatment of these patients and in recent years new antibiotics have been licensed. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics of New Licensed Antibiotics in Critically Ill Patients Receiving Continuous Venovenous Haemofiltration: An International Collaborative Study

The mortality in patients with sepsis and severe acute kidney injury requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) remains high. Antibiotic therapy is a key treatment of these patients and in recent years new antibiotics have been licensed. However, data is lacking to determine the optimal dosing regimens of these antibiotics for high (Australia and other countries) and low intensity (Japan) of CRRT.

Aim To establish the appropriate dosing regimens of newly available antibiotics during CRRT can applied globally.

Being tested
blood samples and filtered fluid will be collected.
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • blood samples and filtered fluid will be collected.Other

    Arterial blood samples will be collected just before the commencement of continuous venovenous haemofiltration (CVVHF) and 1 h after the termination of CVVHF.

    Prefilter and post-filter venous blood samples and filtered fluid will be collected 1 and 3 h after the commencement of CVVHF and at the end of CVVHF.

Study groups in NCT04800952
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
To establish the appropriate dosing regimens of newly available antibiotics during CRRTOtherHigh dose (world standard dose) and low dose CRRT (Japan local) CRRT protocol Vascular access will be obtained by inserting a double-lumen dialysis catheter into the internal jugular or femoral veins. High dose CRRT in Australia, Blood flow through the extracorporeal circuit will be maintained at 150 ml/min. The CVVHF replacement volume will be set at 25ml/kg/hour and bicarbonate-buffered replacement fluids will be added in post-dilutional mode. Low dose CRRT in Japan, Blood flow through the extracorporeal circuit will be maintained at 80 ml/min. CVVHF replacement volume will be set at 15ml/kg/hour and bicarbonate-buffered replacement fluids will be added in the post-dilutional mode. Fluid balance, volume removal and the duration of CVVHF will be determined by the ICU physician based on the patient's individual clinical status.
Receives: Other: blood samples and filtered fluid will be collected.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma new antibiotics concentration during continuous venovenous haemofiltration (CVVHF) in critically ill patients receiving infusion of these drugs.

    New drugs are Tedizolid, Daptomycin (anti-MRSA), Tazobactam/ Ceftolozane (anti-gram negative), Metronidazole (Anti-anaerobic). Plasma antibiotics concentrations will be measured at 5 time-points and prefilter and postfilter plasma and filtered-fluid antibiotics levels will be measured at 3 time-points during CVVHF.

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Calculated clearances of new antibiotics during continuous venovenous haemofiltration (CVVHF) in critically ill patients receiving infusion of these drugs.

    New drugs are Tedizolid, Daptomycin (anti-MRSA), Tazobactam/ Ceftolozane (anti-gram negative), Metronidazole (Anti-anaerobic). Total clearance by CVVHF: (Cltotal) = (Cpre - Cpost / Cpre) × Blood flow (ml/min), Clearance by filtration: (Clfil) = (Clfil / Cpre)× replacement volume (ml/min), Clearance by absorption of the filter: (Clab) = (Cltotal) - (Clfil) (ml/min).

    Measured: 72 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Concentration of serum creatinine

    Concentration of serum creatinine

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. length of stay in the hospital

    length of stay in the hospital

    Measured: up to 30 days, length of stay in the hospital will be calculated using the earliest of date that the subject is medically ready for discharge when captured, the date of discharge

  3. ICU Mortality

    Mortality at ICU discharge

    Measured: at ICU discharge assessed up to 30 days

  4. Hospital Mortality

    Mortality at hospital discharge

    Measured: at hospital discharge assessed up to 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing blood samples and filtered fluid will be collected. in people with Sepsis and Acute Kidney Injury, run by Osaka University.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Mar 2021. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Naoya Iguchi, MD, PhD (+81 6 6879 3133, iguchi@hp-icu.med.osaka-u.ac.jp), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Plasma new antibiotics concentration during continuous venovenous haemofiltration (CVVHF) in critically ill patients receiving infusion of these drugs. (time frame: 72 hours). 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 Mar 2021.
