Vancomycin Plus Moxifloxacin Versus Vancomycin Plus Ceftazidime for the Treatment of Peritoneal Dialysis (PD)-Related Peritonitis (PD)

March 11, 2020 updated by: Dong Jie, Peking University First Hospital

Intraperitoneal (IP) Vancomycin Plus Oral Moxifloxacin Versus IP Vancomycin Plus IP Ceftazidime for the Treatment of Peritoneal Dialysis-related Peritonitis: a Pilot Randomized Controlled Study

Intra-peritoneal administration of antibiotics covering both gram-positive and gram-negative organisms was recommended as first-line regimen for the management of peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis. Oral administration of quinolones can also achieve effective serum concentrations, and is more convenient and economical. We conducted a pilot randomized controlled study to compare the effects on peritonitis cure and relapsing rates between oral moxifloxacin plus IP vancomycin and conventional IP vancomycin plus ceftazidime.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

To compare the effects on peritonitis cure and relapsing rates between oral moxifloxacin plus IP vancomycin and conventional IP vancomycin plus ceftazidime, eligible PD patients were randomly assigned to study group (IP vancomycin 1g every 5 days combined with oral moxifloxacin 400mg QD) and control group (IP vancomycin 1g every 5 days combined with IP ceftazidime 1g QD). Patients were followed for 3 months after the completion of the treatment period. Primary endpoint is complete cure, secondary endpoint are primary response and primary or secondary treatment failure.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Inclusion Criteria:

  • incident or prevalent peritoneal dialysis patients
  • diagnosis of acute peritonitis according to ISPD guideline

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complete Cure Rate
Time Frame: within 4 weeks of completion of therapy
complete cure was defined as complete resolution of peritonitis (normalization of body temperature, resolution of abdominal pain, clearing of dialysate, and PD effluent neutrophil count less than 100 cells/mL and proportion of polynuclear cell less than 50%) by using antibiotics alone without relapse within 4 weeks of completion of therapy
within 4 weeks of completion of therapy

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Primary Response Rate
Time Frame: on day 10 by using antibiotics alone
Primary response was defined as resolution of peritonitis (normalization of body temperature, resolution of abdominal pain, clearing of dialysate, and PD effluent neutrophil count less than 100 cells/mL and proportion of polynuclear cell less than 50%) on day 10 by using antibiotics alone
on day 10 by using antibiotics alone
Primary Treatment Failure Rate
Time Frame: after 3 days of treatment by the assigned antibiotics
Primary treatment failure was defined as the presence of fever, abdominal pain, and turbid peritoneal dialysate, and if the total peritoneal WBC counts is >50% of the pretreatment values after 3 days of treatment by the assigned antibiotics
after 3 days of treatment by the assigned antibiotics
Secondary Treatment Failure Rate
Time Frame: after 6 to 8 days of treatment
Secondary treatment failure was defined as treatment failure despite adjustment of antibiotics or changing to second line antibiotics for 3 to 5 days in patients with primary treatment failure
after 6 to 8 days of treatment
