Trial summary

New rapid diagnostic strategies are warranted in intra-abdominal candidiasis (IAC). A previous retrospective study showed that one measure, the day of the surgery, of peritoneal 1.3-Beta-D-Glucan ≤ 310pg/ml could rule out an IAC. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Inclusion of 200 patients. Among them, identification of : 50 Cases (confirmed intra abdominal candidiasis) and 50 controls (intra abdominal infection without candida). If more than 50 cases, random selection. Identification of control by matching (with confounding factors of the 1.3 BDG test). If more than 50 controls after matching, random selection.

Who may be able to join

  • critically ill adult (> 18 yrs old) admitted to ICU for intra-abdominal infection requiring surgery and possible intra abdominal candidiasis

Who cannot join

  • declinate to participate,
  • expected death within the first 24 hours

About this study

Official title: Prospective Evaluation of 1.3-ß-D-glucan in the Peritoneal Fluid for the Diagnosis of Fungal Peritonitis in Critically Ill Patients

New rapid diagnostic strategies are warranted in intra-abdominal candidiasis (IAC). A previous retrospective study showed that one measure, the day of the surgery, of peritoneal 1.3-Beta-D-Glucan ≤ 310pg/ml could rule out an IAC. This strategy was independent of the patient underlying conditions and Candida risk factors. This study aimed to confirm these results with a multicenter prospective study

Being tested
1.3 BETA D GLUCAN
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • 1.3 BETA D GLUCANDiagnostic test

    dosage of 1.3 BETA D GLUCAN in the peritoneal fluid obtained during surgery with the β-glucan test (Fujifilm Wako Chemicals, Osaka, Japan)

Study groups in NCT03997929
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CASE (intra abdominal candidiasis)Critically ill patients with a confirmed diagnosis of intra abdominal candidiasis (IAC) Definition of IAC : sterilely collected peritoneal fluid cultures that are positive for Candida spp. as determined by the signs and symptoms consistent with an active infection
Receives: Diagnostic Test: 1.3 BETA D GLUCAN
CONTROL (bacterial intra abdominal infection)Critically ill patients with a non candida intra abdominal infection (bacterial peritonitis)
Receives: Diagnostic Test: 1.3 BETA D GLUCAN

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure of 1.3 BDG in the peritoneal exudate of patient with intra-abdominal candidiasis

    Value of 1.3 BDG in the peritoneal exudate in patient with intra-abdominal candidiasis in comparison with non intra-abdominal candidiasis

    Measured: 1 DAY

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Measure of 1.3 BDG in the serum of patient with intra-abdominal candidiasis

    Coefficient of correlation between peritoneal and serum 1.3 BDG in patient with and without intra-abdominal candidiasis

    Measured: DAY 1 and DAY 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intra Abdominal Infections and Candidiasis, Invasive, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 4 sites 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 2 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 9 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

Measure of 1.3 BDG in the peritoneal exudate of patient with intra-abdominal candidiasis (time frame: 1 DAY). 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 NCT03997929, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 9 Feb 2023.
