What participants receive

  • Baricitinib 4 MGDrug

    Reference drug

Study groups in NCT05914584
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Baricitinib + Standard of careExperimentalBaricitinib injected per os for 10 days (4mg/day). the first administration of this treatment is performed within the 6 hours following the randomization, followed by daily administration for a total of 10 days. The standard of care : for treating HAP will comply with international guidelines. For all patients, empiri antimicrobial therapy is initiated imedialty after collecting the respiratory sample and can thus be started before the randomization to avoid delayed antimicrobial therapy. Its recommanded to broaden the spectrum in case of resistant bacteria resistant to the empirical antimicrobial therapy but il is not recommanded to prolong the antibiotic tratment for more than 7-8 days

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the safety (phase II), of baricitinib plus standard of care (SOC) as compared to (SOC) alone for the treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia in patients with a pro-inflammatory profile

    Using a hierarchic procedure. We will test the baricitinib superiority on the clinical cure rate at the test-of-cure visit realized 10-12 days after randomization or at the ICU discharge. If the superiority criterion is met at the test-of-cure visit, we will test the baricitinib superiority on the rate of all-cause mortality on Day 28

    Measured: Day 28

  2. Determine the efficacy (phase III) of baricitinib plus standard of care (SOC) as compared to (SOC) alone for the treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia in patients with a pro-inflammatory profile

    Using a hierarchic procedure. We will test the baricitinib superiority on the clinical cure rate at the test-of-cure visit realized 10-12 days after randomization or at the ICU discharge. If the superiority criterion is met at the test-of-cure visit, we will test the baricitinib superiority on the rate of all-cause mortality on Day 28

    Measured: Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Baricitinib 4 MG in people with Hospital-acquired Pneumonia, run by Nantes University Hospital at 29 sites in 4 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 10 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 22 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in France, Belgium, Spain, Netherlands. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Astrid GARREAU (+33 (0) 2 53 48 28 40, astrid.garreau@chu-nantes.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determine the safety (phase II), of baricitinib plus standard of care (SOC) as compared to (SOC) alone for the treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia in patients with a pro-inflammatory profile (time frame: Day 28). 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 22 Jun 2023.
