Trial summary

There are more than one million (> 40,000 cases per year in France) of osteoarticular infections (OAI) yearly in the world. The number of these infections is constantly increasing due to an increase in life expectancy associated with an increase in prosthesis fitting, as well as an increase in comorbid factors.

About this study

There are more than one million (> 40,000 cases per year in France) of osteoarticular infections (OAI) yearly in the world. The number of these infections is constantly increasing due to an increase in life expectancy associated with an increase in prosthesis fitting, as well as an increase in comorbid factors. These are severe pathologies associated with mortality (5%) and significant morbidity (40%), responsible for functional sequelae with an individual cost (prolonged hospitalization, altered quality of life, disability) and societal (sick leave, partial disability). or total, temporary or permanent) extremely high. In addition, reinfection rates within two years of treatment are high.

The BJIs are a group of clinical entities that have in common the invasion and progressive destruction of bone and cartilage tissue by bacterial-like microorganisms.

Staphylococcus spp is the main pathogen (>50%) in BJI and is associated with particularly difficult to treat infections, with a high rate of chronicity and relapses, especially in case of implanted material.

The difficulty in managing these infections is partly linked, on the one hand, to the fact that the pathogens are in "persistent" metabolic forms and in intracellular reservoirs which make them insensitive to conventional antibiotics and, on the other hand, the absence of reliable markers of the infection and above all of its clinical resolution, which complicates clinical trials.

ESPRI-IOAC is a consortium of 4 partners (private-public) from Lyon area and which aims at:

  • studying the translational value of BJI preclinical models
  • identifying biomarkers of infection in preclinical models and at assessing them in a prospective study.

The current study is part of the global ESPRI-IOAC consortium, and represent the clinical application.

It is a prospective study of patients treated for BJI in the infectious disease department of the Hospices Civils de Lyon, La Croix-Rousse, for osteo-articular infections due to Staphylococcus aureus, or for simple mechanical revision or for cruciate ligament surgery, the objective of which is to highlight biomarkers of interest in the diagnosis of chronic BJI and, or predictive of the therapeutic response.

The translational value of the experimental models used in the BJI will also be studied.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dosages of serum osteocalcin

    Comparison of dosages by ELISA test of serum osteocalcin between the patients with OAI and the "control" patients without OAI at the time of inclusion in order to demonstrate a marker or a combination of markers for OAI.

    Measured: At the time of surgery

  2. Dosages of serum procollagen propeptide type 1

    Comparison of dosages by ELISA test of serum procollagen propeptide type 1 between the patients with OAI and the "control" patients without OAI at the time of inclusion in order to demonstrate a marker or a combination of markers for OAI.

    Measured: At the time of surgery

  3. Dosages of serum cross-linked telopeptide of type 1 collagen

    Comparison of dosages by ELISA test of serum cross-linked telopeptide of type 1 collagen between the patients with OAI and the "control" patients without OAI at the time of inclusion in order to demonstrate a marker or a combination of markers for OAI.

    Measured: At the time of surgery

  4. Dosages of serum periostin

    Comparison of dosages by ELISA test of serum periostin between the patients with OAI and the "control" patients without OAI at the time of inclusion in order to demonstrate a marker or a combination of markers for OAI.

    Measured: At the time of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone and Join Infection (BJI) and Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI), run by Hospices Civils de Lyon 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 10 inclusion and 19 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 23 Jun 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 was stopped early (reason given: difficulties in including patients with Staphylococcus aureus infection). 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?

Dosages of serum osteocalcin (time frame: At the time of surgery). The study lists 4 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 23 Jun 2022.
