Active clinical trials for "Pyelonephritis"

This was a Phase 3 study containing a randomized open-label superiority cohort (Cohort 1) comparing the efficacy and safety of plazomicin with colistin when combined with a second antibiotic (either meropenem or tigecycline) in the treatment of patients with bloodstream infection (BSI), hospital acquired bacterial pneumonia (HABP), or ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (VABP) due to CRE. An additional cohort of patients with BSI, HABP, VABP, complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI), or acute pyelonephritis (AP) due to CRE, not eligible for inclusion in the other cohort, were enrolled into a single arm (Cohort 2) and treated with plazomicin-based therapy. Therapeutic drug management (TDM) was used to help ensure that plazomicin exposures lie within an acceptable range of the target mean steady-state area under the curve (AUC).

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of 5 days versus 10 days treatment duration in uncomplicated acute pyelonephritis. Acute pyelonephritis is a common disease and the treatment duration is not found on scientific evidence. If a short treatment is equal to standard duration, it will possible to shortening antibiotherapy with ecologic and economic advantage.

Urinary tract community infections are one of very frequent reason consultation and prescription. Urinary tract represents the second site of bacterial community infection after the respiratory system. The management of the acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis was simply codified in the past recommendations of the French Agency for Safety Health Products (AFSSAPS) in 2008. Treatment is based on two main families of antibiotics, fluoroquinolones with 7 days treatment and 3rd generation cephalosporins with 10 to 14 days treatment. The practice of a short treatment with ceftriaxone intra venous relayed by cefixime orally provides a simplified treatment for patients, a reduced use of fluoroquinolones and a probable decrease in correlation with the emergence of fluoroquinolones resistance, and finally, a decrease in the cost of treatment of acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis.

The purpose of this study is to assess the microbiological cure rate of doripenem in the treatment of patients with complicated urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis. The study will also characterize the safety and tolerability of treatment with doripenem in patients with complicated urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (iv) or iv/per oral (po) omadacycline as compared to iv or iv/po levofloxacin in the treatment of female adults with acute pyelonephritis.

This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-7625A (ceftolozane/tazobactam) compared with that of meropenem in pediatric participants with cUTI, including pyelonephritis.

Febrile urinary tract infections and urosepsis are common and potentially serious infections that require effective antimicrobial treatment. The duration of parenteral treatment depends on oral alternatives. These alternatives are few and due to antimicrobial resistance, quinolones are "standard of care". The increased use of quinolones is concerning because of its negative ecological aspects and it is confirmed an increasing incidence of resistant E.coli to quinolones in Norwegian isolates. Pivmecillinam is an antibiotic with high susceptibility to E.coli but the evidence for treating febrile urinary tract infections is insufficient. This trial will investigate the efficacy and safety of pivmecillinam in treating pyelonephritis and urosepsis caused by E.coli. The hypothesis is that urosepsis can safely be treated with pivmecillinam when it is given after 2-3 days with empirical i.v. antibiotics.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of adding 125 mg or 250 mg doses of MK-7655 (relebactam) to imipenem/cilastatin in adults 18 years or older with complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI). The primary hypothesis is that the relebactam + imipenem/cilastatin treatment regimen is non-inferior to imipenem/cilastatin with respect to the proportion of participants with a favorable microbiological response at completion of intravenous (IV) study therapy.

In different studies, it has been shown that "antioxidant" utilization has favorable therapeutic effects not only on control of acute symptoms but also on prevention of delayed problems from acute and chronic pyelonephritis. According to the efficacy of acetylcysteine as a potent antioxidant, safety of this drug and side effects of similar or either less than placebo, this study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of this drug on inflammatory biomarkers of pediatric acute pyelonephritis. It is a triple-blind placebo controlled study on a population of 64 patients 1-16 years old that have "definite" or "probable" diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis in "Mofid" hospital. After randomization, patients will be given acetylcysteine or placebo with dosing according to their weight. Results of treatment are evaluated according to serum procalcitonin, C reactive protein and leukocyte count before drug prescription (baseline) and 5 days after drug prescription. Side effects are also recorded in both groups. Patients will be receiving their routine antimicrobial drugs in addition to acetylcysteine.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the microbiological and clinical outcome of treatment with finafloxacin for 5 days versus finafloxacin for 10 days versus ciprofloxacin for 10 days as a reference comparator. Finafloxacin shows increased activity in an acidic environment which is associated with indications such as uUTI and cUTI. Given the acidic pH of urine and concentration of finafloxacin excreted via the urinary tract in humans it should be proven if the finafloxacin treatments offer significant advantages over the currently available treatments for UTI.
