About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Wound Infection focused on measuring Wound Infection in burned patient

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Man or woman
  • Adult Informed consent obtained from patient or next of kin
  • In-hospital patient treated for burn wounds in a burn unit
  • Burn wound (grafted or not) or graft harvesting area, presenting local signs of infection defined by SFETB criteria:

    • A local or loco-regional inflammatory reaction;
    • And/or an adverse and unexpected local evolution;
    • And/or regarding burn wounds: presence of pus, fast spontaneous debridement and separation, occurrence of blackish spots (necrosis or haemorrhage), unexplained conversion from a superficial lesion to a deep one (> 48th hour);
    • And/or regarding graft donor sites: presence of pus, unexplained delay in epidermisation, bedsore;
    • And/or regarding graft recipient sites: presence of pus, lysis of grafts, necrosis of fat located under the graft.
  • Burn wounds with a microbiologically documented infection, as defined by positive surface swab, due to Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas aeruginosa whatever their resistance profile
  • Treated by povidone-iodine

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding woman
  • Intercurrent condition requiring a treatment which may interfere with analysis results: such as high dose of chronic corticotherapy, immunosuppressive medication, oncologic chemotherapy
  • Patient included in an interventional research protocol with therapeutic intervention still ongoing upon inclusion time or having participated into anti-infective drug trials during the previous month.
  • Patient considered as part of a vulnerable population
  • Patient for whom treatment limitation or withdrawal during study period is considered
  • Allergy to Silver Sulfadiazine

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Time for bacteria reduction adjusted on antibiotic treatment
Time necessary for a persistent bacteria reduction of two modes or persistent bacteria eradication relative to D0 adjusted on antibiotic treatment (active on targeted strain) introduced between D1 to D7. Bacteria count performed on bacteria targeted by the phages cocktail collected from surface swab samples assessed by the microbiologist.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Assessment of tolerance of treatment
Adverse events frequencies will be assessed in each treatment arms. Phages therapy safety profile will be compared to safety profile of standard of care .
Incidence an delay of infection reduction with different bacterial species from the targets
The criteria will be assessed according to wound clinical examination and bacteria count by the microbiologist.
number of sites cured
The number of infected burns or infected wounds getting a clinical improvement will be described and compared between treatment groups.
