Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Men or women ≥ 18 to ≤ 80 years of age, weight ≥ 40 kg, BMI < 35, who have received a diagnosis of chronic PJI (lasting more than 4 weeks but less than 24 months) requiring a one-stage surgical procedure and presenting at least ONE of the following clinical signs and symptoms:
  • Joint pain
  • Effusion
  • Erythema and sensation of heat at the implant site
  • Limited range of motion in the affected joint
  • Intraoperative microbiological specimens: during the surgical resection, 5 separate surgical specimens (at least 3) must be sent for culture and susceptibility testing. These specimens must be taken from different locations such as: Hip capsule, femoral membrane, acetabular membrane, synovium, and synovial fluid with separate instruments. A minimum of 2 surgical specimens must be positive. If a preoperative puncture revealed the presence of an acceptable (Gram+) pathogen, it is acceptable if only one pathogen similar to the previously revealed one is identified during the surgical procedure.

Treatment with the study drug will continue until Day 2 to 7 (until the susceptibility test results are obtained). Patients with only a confirmed Gram-positive infection will continue the study. Treatment with ceftriaxone will be discontinued and the patient will switch to oral linezolid and oral rifampin. The total duration of antibiotic therapy from the day of the surgical procedure until the end of treatment (EOT) will be 4 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical cure rate

    Clinical cure rate in the modified intent-to-treat (mITT)population during the hospital visit. Patients will be declared cured if clinical signs of infection are normalized.

    Measured: 12 months after the end of treatment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Cure rate

    Cure rate ine the modified intent-to-treat population during the hospital visit. Patients will be cdeclared cured if radiological and laboratory signs of infection are normalized.

    Measured: 12 months after the end of treatment

  2. Cure rate

    Patients will be declared cured if clinical, radiological, and laboratory signs of infection normalized.

    Measured: 6 and 24 months after the end of treatment for the modified intent-to-treat population and at 12 months for the per protocol population.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing VANCOMYCIN, CEFTRIAXONE and CLINDAMYCIN in people with Hip Prosthetic Joint Infection, run by University Hospital, Tours at 9 sites in 3 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 12 inclusion and 24 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 28 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in France, Spain, Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Louis BERNARD (+ 33 (0) 2 47 47 97 74 ext. 79774, l.bernard@chu-tours.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical cure rate (time frame: 12 months after the end of treatment). 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 28 May 2014.
