About this study

This study is a single-center, open-label clinical trial designed to evaluate the early bactericidal activity (EBA) of sitafloxacin against Mycobacterium abscessus disease. Patients with Mycobacterium abscessus disease were enrolled and treated with sitafloxacin monotherapy for 14 days. Colony forming units (CFU) and time to positivity (TTP) in sputum cultures were analyzed and compared. By assessing the impact of sitafloxacin monotherapy on the bacteria in the sputum of patients with Mycobacterium abscessus disease, the early bactericidal activity of sitafloxacin was evaluated, providing a basis for the selection of new drugs for the treatment of Mycobacterium abscessus disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Early bactericidal activity

    Patients with Mycobacterium abscessus infections were enrolled and treated with sitafloxacin monotherapy for 14 days to assess its early bactericidal activity. This involved analyzing and comparing the colony-forming units and time to positivity in sputum cultures to evaluate the impact of sitafloxacin on the bacteria in the sputum of patients with Mycobacterium abscessus infections.

    Measured: 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sitafloxacin in people with Fluoroquinolone and Mycobacterium, run by Beijing Chest Hospital at 1 site in China.

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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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.

What does this 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.

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

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?

Early bactericidal activity (time frame: 14 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 5 Feb 2025.
