Sitafloxacin and Ertapenem Treatment for Acute Pyelonephritis Caused by Escherichia Coli (SETAP)

August 28, 2015 updated by: Chitprasong Malaisri, Mahidol University

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Sitafloxacin and Ertapenem Treatment for Acute Pyelonephritis Caused by Extended-Spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Escherichia Coli

The aim of the investigators' study was to evaluate oral and non carbapenem antimicrobial agents which can be used in outpatient for the treatment of non-bacteremic acute pyelonephritis caused by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase Escherichia coli. This study was conducted to compare the clinical and bacteriological outcomes of patients with non-bacteremic acute pyelonephritis caused by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase Escherichia coli who were treated with intravenous (IV) carbapenems followed by oral sitafloxacin or IV ertapenem.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A prospective randomized controlled trial of patients with a presumptive diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis caused by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase-producing pathogen was performed. Carbapenems was initially given to all patients. After day 3, patients were randomized to receive either oral sitafloxacin (100 mg twice daily) or intravenous ertapenem. The regular course of treatment was completed within 10 days.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Sitafloxacin group
The first third days of treatment was open label and all patients were given intravenous carbapenems. After day 3, the patients were randomized to either sitafloxacin group or ertapenem group by the use of a computer-generated random number allocation schedule and block size of four. The patients were allocated to the sitafloxacin group or ertapenem group using the sealed envelope method.
The patients in intervention group will receive carbapenem for the first 3 days then sitafloxacin for 7 days. Total of treatment duration is 10 days.
Other Names:
  • fluoroquinolone
Active Comparator: control group
Intervention was prescribed ertapenem for patients.
Control group will be given ertapenem only for 10 days.
Other Names:
  • carbapenem
