Trial summary

The continuing spread of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) is among the most important problems in antimicrobial resistance. It is also a good model to investigate the epidemiological complexity of resistance in Enterobacteriaceae. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Understanding and Modelling Reservoirs, Vehicles and Transmission of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in the Community and Long Term Care Facilities

The continuing spread of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) is among the most important problems in antimicrobial resistance. It is also a good model to investigate the epidemiological complexity of resistance in Enterobacteriaceae. Available data on the transmission determinants of ESBL-PE in community settings are scarce, methodologically limited and mostly based on single centre studies. A comprehensive investigation using present typing and modelling techniques is warranted to develop a sound quantitative understanding of the interactions involved. A consortium of investigators with diverse expertise from countries with high and low endemicity of ESBL-EP has been created. Transmission and persistence of ESBL-PE within households and long-term care facilities will be studied. Individual and group-level determinants for transmission and persistence will be quantified, together with other ecological variables including environmental, food and wastewater contamination. Advanced molecular typing techniques and state of the art analytical methods will be used. Data generated in this project will directly inform a suite of mathematical models which, in addition to encapsulating current understanding of the processes, will be used to explore the potential effectiveness of different interventions to control ESBL-PE spread. The expected outputs are a comprehensive characterisation of ESBL-PE transmission considering bacterial clones and mobile genetic elements, as well as individual and ecologic-level factors in different settings, to inform public health authorities about interventions that should be prioritised to control transmission of these organisms.

What is being measured

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

  1. Transmission of ESBL-producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae (ESBL-E) in the community (LTCF residents and in households)

    We will assess

    • For the cohort 'LTCF': the number of LTCF residents contaminated with an ESBL-E from other residents or from the environment within 35 weeks.
    • For the cohort 'Household': the number of people (sharing household with a ESBL-E carrying patient which has been discharged from the hospital) contaminated with ESBL-E within 4 months.

    These two measurements will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value : the number of secondary cases from one index case (ratio).

    Measured: For the cohort 'LTCF': 35 weeks ; For the cohort 'Household': 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Resistance Bacterial and Enterobacteriaceae Infections, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon 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 Mar 2022. 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?

Transmission of ESBL-producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae (ESBL-E) in the community (LTCF residents and in households) (time frame: For the cohort 'LTCF': 35 weeks ; For the cohort 'Household': 4 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 10 Mar 2022.
