About this study

Osteoarticular infections associated with hip and knee prostheses require optimal surgical and medical management to maximize the rate of therapeutic success. Antibiotic therapy should be administered for a period of 12 weeks. Tolerance problems, difficulties in maintaining compliance over 12 weeks, bacterial multidrug resistance and sometimes intravenous administration are the main obstacles to appropriate antibiotic therapy and to limiting iatrogenicity. Dalbavancin is an antibiotic derived from teicoplanin (glycopeptide) with a long half-life, of punctual parenteral administration without a central line, active on staphylococci, and well tolerated. The data in the literature concerning its efficacy in Osteoarticular infections associated with hip and knee prostheses are limited and heterogeneous. Investigators would like to describe its efficacy in a homogeneous series of patients in terms of the type of infection, their surgical management and the methods of administration of the product in order to extend its use.

What participants receive

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

  • DalbavancinDrug

    The unit dose of dalbavancin administered via the peripheral venous route will be 1500 mg at each injection with a first injection at Day1, a second injection at Day15 and a third at Day36, which corresponds to 61 days of treatment with dalbavancin.

    In case of residual dalbavancin dosage at Day15 lower than 15 mg/L (rare situation) and a minimal inhibitory concentration for dalbavancin of 0.125mg/L (less than 5% of the strains), an injection every 14 days will be necessary, i.e. Day1, Day15, Day29, Day43 and Day57, which corresponds to 71 days of dalbavancin treatment.

    Rifampicin should be given orally at a dose of 600 mg on an empty stomach in the morning for patients weighing less than 70 kg and 900 mg on an empty stomach in the morning for patients weighing more than 70 kg.

What is being measured

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

  1. therapeutic success

    therapeutic success defined by the absence of failure within 12 months of surgical management

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. therapeutic success at 24 months

    therapeutic success defined by the absence of failure within 24 months of surgical management

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Tolerance

    Tolerance will be assessed by collecting adverse events during treatment with dalbavancin and rifampin classified according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 5.0) within 6 months of its first administration.

    Measured: 6 months of first administration of dalbavancin

  3. Residual dalbavancin dosage

    Residual dalbavancin dosage at Day61

    Measured: Day 61 of first administration of dalbavancin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dalbavancin in people with Osteoarticular Infection, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice at 4 sites 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 4 inclusion and 14 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

therapeutic success (time frame: 12 months). 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 22 Jun 2026.
