About this study

Official title: INtravesical Antimicrobial Agents Versus STANDard Oral Antibiotics for the Treatment of Acute Urinary Tract Infection in Women With Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection (INSTANT Study)

Women have problems with oral antibiotics, including vagina and bowel infections. Also, bacteria causing urinary infections are becoming more resistant to oral antibiotis. Placement of antibiotic directly into the bladder does not cause these problems and are at doses that are may be able to stop bacteria from being resistant to antibiotics.

Read the detailed description

Each participant once enrolled returns with an active Urinary Tract Infection (UTI), confirmed by urine void. Participants will complete an UTI questionnaire, and if consistent with a simple non-febrile UTI will be randomized to one of two arms: oral nitrofurantoin treatment for 7 days, or intravesical gentamicin instillation once a day for three days. Patients will be followed for symptom relief with a repeat voided urine in 7 to 10 days, and with a repeated questionnaire for symptom relief.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • NitrofurantoinDrug

    Also called Macrobid, Furadantin, Macrodantin

    Participants will receive oral Nitrofurantoin 100 mg twice daily for 7 days

  • GentamicinDrug

    Also called Gentak, Garamycin

    Participants will receive intravesical via catheter Gentamicin solution 25 mg in 50cc for 3 days

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in microbiologic effect of a chronic acute Urinary Tract Infection

    Microbiological culture growth of susceptible organisms obtained on day 0, compared with voided urine culture as no growth in 24-48 hours obtained at 7-10 days

    Measured: baseline, 7-10 days

  2. Change in symptomatic relief of a chronic acute Urinary Tract Infection

    Completion of a Symptom Urinary Tract Questionnaire. Tracking the symptoms in the past 24 hours. Indicating how severe and how bothersome they were. Severe ranging from 0 (Did not have) to 3 (Severe). Bothersome ranging from 0 (Not at all) to 3 (A lot)

    Measured: baseline, 7-10 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To establish the clinical FTE needs for providing urgent intravesical treatments

    Nursing needs to provide intravesical treatments of acute Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) in women with chronic recurrent UTIs. Measured in amount of participants and FTE requirement for nursing staff.

    Measured: baseline, through stufy completion, an average of one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Nitrofurantoin and Gentamicin in people with Urinary Tract Infections, run by Mayo Clinic.

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 17 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Change in microbiologic effect of a chronic acute Urinary Tract Infection (time frame: baseline, 7-10 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Jun 2019.
