About this study

Official title: Neonatal Acquisition of ESBL-PE in a Low-income Country

Enterobacteriaceae, more specifically Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, are the bacteria most often responsible for neonatal infections in low-income countries. Infections caused by multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae: Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E), are more often associated with an unfavorable outcome of the infection.

Enterobacteriaceae colonize the digestive tract which is the first step in developing a potential infection. Very few studies have been carried out at the community level. Colonization of the mother with ESBL-E is generally considered to be a major route of acquisition. The carrying of ESBL-E by other family members and other potential sources of transmission (food, objects and surfaces in contact with the newborn) have never been documented.

In addition, with a view to offering an intervention adapted to the local context, the local cultural determinants which govern the interactions of the newborn with his environment are important to understand.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center prospective cohort of all members living in the same household in which a newborn baby has just been born.

The study consists to:

  • recruit a cohort of all members of 60 households in which a newborn has just been born
  • carry out semi-structured interviews and direct participant observation.

This study is divided in two parts :

  • the epidemiological part : the documentation of colonization by E-ESBL by sampling the stools of the newborn, of all members of the household, and sampling of food given to the child, from surfaces in contact with it.
  • the anthropological part : Semi-structured interviews with key people in the structuring of the social and family environment of the newborn and participant direct observation of households.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of acquisition events and the number of non-acquisition of E-ESBL in newborns for the epidemiological part

    Identification of bacterial strains from stool and sequencing of EBSL-E strains

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Number of semi-structured interviews completed for the anthropological part

    1 or 4 hours semi-structured interviews of participants at home done by investigators

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Number of participant direct observation completed for the anthropological part

    observations of the participants at home done by investigators (2 to 4 hours in 3 to 4 sessions over 28 days)

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Enterobacteriaceae Infections, run by Institut Pasteur at 1 site in Madagascar.

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 34 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Oct 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 Madagascar. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Bich-Tram Huynh, MD (+33 1 45 68 83 01, bich-tram.huynh@pasteur.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of acquisition events and the number of non-acquisition of E-ESBL in newborns for the epidemiological part (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 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 7 Oct 2022.
