About this study

Official title: Pemberian Antibiotik Profilaksis Pada Biopsi Prostat Transperineal di RSUPN Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo: Uji Klinis Acak Terkontrol

This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the rate of perioperative infection complications in transperineal prostate biopsy between the group that receives prophylactic antibiotic and the group that receives placebo. The types of infection studied included bacteriuria, urinary tract infection (UTI), UTI with fever (febrile UTI), and sepsis. This study hypothesized that the administration of prophylactic antibiotics during transperineal prostate biopsy would result in lower rates of perioperative infection complications.

Read the detailed description

Prostate cancer screenings will be conducted in all patients aged >45 years with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) through PSA test and digital rectal examination (DRE). Those with PSA levels of 4.0 ng/mL or higher or other abnormal findings on DRE will be recommended to undergo transperineal prostate biopsy. In addition, participants will be offered to participate in this clinical trial, in which participants will be randomly assigned into two groups: one group will receive prophylactic antibiotic, while the other group will receive placebo.

The randomization process will be conducted before the biopsy procedure. Computers will generate random numbers, which will put the participants into two groups. These numbers can only be accessed by the research monitor (Clinical Research Supporting Unit of IMERI FMUI), while the investigators, surgeons, residents, and nurses involved will be blinded to this information. To ensure patient blinding, the placebo and cotrimoxazole forte 960 mg will be reformed as identical as possible in capsule preparation.

The primary outcomes of this clinical trial are the rate of perioperative infection complications, including bacteriuria, urinary tract infection (UTI), UTI with fever (febrile UTI), and sepsis, in 24 hours, 7 days, and 14 days postoperatively. The secondary outcomes of this clinical trial are the rate of readmission.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of infection complications

    The rate of infection complications, including bacteriuria, urinary tract infection (UTI), UTI with fever (febrile UTI), and sepsis, will be measured in both treatment and placebo groups in 24 hours postoperatively.

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Incidence of infection complications

    The rate of infection complications, including bacteriuria, urinary tract infection (UTI), UTI with fever (febrile UTI), and sepsis, will be measured in both treatment and placebo groups in 7 days postoperatively.

    Measured: 7 days

  3. Incidence of infection complications

    The rate of infection complications, including bacteriuria, urinary tract infection (UTI), UTI with fever (febrile UTI), and sepsis, will be measured in both treatment and placebo groups in 14 days postoperatively.

    Measured: 14 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Rate of readmission

    The rate of readmission will also be assessed in 7 days postoperatively.

    Measured: 7 days

  2. Rate of readmission

    The rate of readmission will also be assessed in 14 days postoperatively.

    Measured: 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cotrimoxazole in people with Prostate Cancer and Prostate Biopsy, run by Universitas Indonesia at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 9 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 5 Aug 2021. 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 Indonesia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Agus Rizal A. H. Hamid, MD, PhD (+628111803377, rizalhamid.urology@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of infection complications (time frame: 24 hours). 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 5 Aug 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
