Trial summary

3rd generation cephalosporins (C3G) are the antibiotics recommended in probabilistic in most enteric infections in France including pyelonephritis and bacteraemia. However, the prevalence of resistance of Enterobacteriaceae including E. coli to C3G is continuously increasing for several years. Read more about this study

About this study

3rd generation cephalosporins (C3G) are the antibiotics recommended in probabilistic in most enteric infections in France including pyelonephritis and bacteraemia.

However, the prevalence of resistance of Enterobacteriaceae including E. coli to C3G is continuously increasing for several years. In 2012, in France, the proportion of E. resistant or intermediate coli categorized to C3G is 10 to 25% (EARSS data).

Antibiotics not adapted early in severe sepsis is responsible for worse prognosis for patients in terms of morbidity and mortality and unnecessary prolongation of the DMS.

At St. Joseph's Hospital on enterobacteria levels of resistance to C3G is 15.4%.

To avoid overuse of carbapenems for probabilistic antibiotic and to quickly prescribe antibiotics adapted to the resistance of the bacteria, it is interesting to use a rapid test for detection of resistance to C3G.

The Lacta ™ test could be used in this indication. This is a rapid test diagnostic orientation detecting hydrolysis of a substrate (chromogenic cephalosporin) by the enzymatic action of ESBL, cAMP-type cephalosporinases and carbapenemases. This test was initially marketed for rapid detection of resistance to C3G enterobacteria from isolated bacterial colonies in culture.

Main objective / secondary:

The investigators propose to conduct a study with a double objective:

  1. To assess the analytical performance and its positioning relative to all the tests available to us in urine samples,
  2. To evaluate prospectively the clinical impact test in urinary infections

Expected results and prospects:

This study will define the performance and limitations of this test in the most difficult situations (low number of bacteria / ml, haematic urine, ...) and will specify its indications and its place among all other tests before implanting it in our routine, as appropriate.

The clinical impact study will provide medical and economic analysis data including shortening time to adapt antibiotic therapies and put in septic isolation to argue the implementation of this test routinely.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of the relevance between antibiotic susceptibility and the antibiotic chosen,with phone questionary

    The biologist advise, as usual, the physician about the antibiotic to choose at H0 according to the result of Beta Lacta™Test. After the first result given, the biologist ask, at hour 48,the physician about the antibiotic chosen and determine the relevance according to the antibiotic susceptibility.

    The answer can be yes or no.

    Measured: Hour 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Urinary Infection, run by Fondation Hôpital Saint-Joseph 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Aug 2018. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Assessment of the relevance between antibiotic susceptibility and the antibiotic chosen,with phone questionary (time frame: Hour 48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02897609, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 10 Aug 2018.
