What is being measured

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

  1. Reduce the rate of late complications of catheter-related bacteremia by S. aureus methicillin sensitive below 2%.

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Reducing hospital stay associated with the treatment of uncomplicated bacteremia MS S. aureus.

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Reduce the transesophagic echocardiography

    Increase efficiency in the management of patients with bacteremia due to MS S. aureus, reducing the number of echocardiographic evidence

    Measured: 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Cloxacilin, Cloxacillin and Levofloxacin in people with Staphylococcus, run by Fundación Pública Andaluza Progreso y Salud at 11 sites in Spain.

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 5 inclusion and 19 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Spain. 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Not participants inclusion). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Reduce the rate of late complications of catheter-related bacteremia by S. aureus methicillin sensitive below 2%. (time frame: 18 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 7 Aug 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
