About this study

Official title: Penicillin Delabeling With Help of a Risk Stratification Tool, Advanced Provocation Tests in a Non Allergologic Unit

A investigational study to establish:

  1. A validated cllinical pathway for delabeling declared Penicillin allergiy outside allergologic departments.
  2. A survey to examine anesthesiologists attitudes and knowledge about penicillin delabeling.
  3. A qualitative focus group study investigating barriers and facilitators in penicillin delabeling among hospital nurses and physichians.
  4. Implement the pathway for delabeling declared penicillin allergy outside allergologic clinics across the Western Norway health region.
Read the detailed description

Patients labeled penicillin allergic is a significant and growing public health problem. 10% of all patients report penicillin allergy. 9 out of 10 however tolerate penicillin on provocation, To be labeled as penicillin allergic has several well documented negative health outcomes for the individual, and on a public health scale.

One of the biggest obstacles in delabeling penicillin allergy is the lack of validated tools i Norwegian, the lack of in vitro tests for severe late /T cell mediated reactions and the accessibility of the gold standard procedure, drug provocation test.

In this study patients having a penicillin allergy label will after giving their written concent be screened used a risk stratification tool. The low risk patient will then directly undergo a single full dose amoxicillin challenge. High risk patients are refered to a allergologic clinic and undergoes full allergologic examination. The investigators seek to document that in low risk patients is a single dose Amoxicillin challenge safe and beneficial outside an allergologic clinic, and to validate the risk stratification tool in Norwegian.

To implement such pathways i qualitative data is needed to facilitate the right efforts and translate the method into every day clinical practice in a sustainable way. Here a anesthesiologist survey and focus group interviews with hospital nurses and physichians is planned.

Finally we will implement the method in an implementation study across the Western Norway Health region

What is being measured

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

  1. Validating of a risk stratification tool ( in Norwegian) and advanced drug provocation challenge

    Negative predictive value of the risk stratification tool

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of patients with treatment related adverse events on oral provocation testing.

    number of patients with treatment related adverse event on oral provocation testing.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Number of patients correctly delabeled

    Og the patientents included in the implementation in clinical practice, how many had a correct procedure and result.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Risk stratification in people with Penicillin Allergy, run by Haukeland University Hospital at 2 sites in Norway.

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 9 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Norway. 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?

Validating of a risk stratification tool ( in Norwegian) and advanced drug provocation challenge (time frame: 24 months). 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 NCT05090527, 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.

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 9 Feb 2024.
