Trial summary

The loss of skin barrier function after burn causes increased susceptibility to infections, which are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in burn patients. Topical antibiotics are one part of the therapeutic arsenal available to treat these infections. Read more about this study

About this study

The loss of skin barrier function after burn causes increased susceptibility to infections, which are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in burn patients. Topical antibiotics are one part of the therapeutic arsenal available to treat these infections. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus are the two major colonizing agents found in this population of patients.

The use of dressings impregnated with amikacin is a common practice. Actually, there are no available data on local and systemic effects with this antibiotic. The study of tissue and plasma pharmacokinetics of amikacin is therefore very important to secure and optimize this singular use of amikacin and improve the care of burn patients.

The objective of the study is to describe the plasma and tissue pharmacokinetics of amikacin after dermal administration and impregnated dressing to estimate the pharmacokinetic parameters and their variability in a burned population.

Secondary objectives are to assess on the one hand the relationship between the effectiveness of treatment and the concentration of antibiotic at the site of tissue infection, and on the other hand to assess the relationship between plasma concentration and the toxicity found of this treatment. We would like also to note the efficacy of the antibiotic treatment in terms of: need for repeat surgery (new skin graft), healing time and hospital length of stay.

Blood samples and skin biopsies will be made for each patient to day 3 and day 7 after the start of treatment.

The knowledge about the tissue concentrations obtained and a possible systemic absorption will then provide additional safety data and optimize the conditions of use of these dressings (dosage, frequency of administration) for effective treatment and safe.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Treatment with Amikacin in people with Burn Patients, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jul 2024. 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 France. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 enough participants to include). 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?

Determination of amikacin concentration (time frame: 24 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 1 Jul 2024.
