Inhaled Lexofloxacin vs Usual Care for Treatment of Community-Acquired Pneumonia (LANDCAP 2)
Local Antibiotic Delivery for Community Acquired Pneumonia
This trial aims to determine whether treatment with inhaled levofloxacin (an antibiotic) is equal to systemic antibiotic treatment (usual care) for patients admitted to a hospital with community-acquired pneumonia in regards to treatment-effect and safety parameters.
Additionally, this study will assess if treatment with inhaled antibiotics leads to fewer antibiotic side-effects and a more preserved gastro-intestinal microbial environment.
The main question this study aims to answer is:
Does inhaled levofloxacin 240mg twice daily result in comparable days alive and out of hospital at 14 days compared to standard-of-care (usual care) antibiotic treatment for community-acquired pneumonia in admitted patients?
Secondary questions this study aims to answer are:
- Does treatment with inhaled levofloxacin reduce proportion of patients with antibiotic side-effects?
- Does treatment with inhaled levofloxacin lead to preserved diversity in the gut microbiome?
- Is treatment with inhaled levofloxacin comparable with usual care in regards to patient reported outcomes?
The above list is not the complete list of questions this study aims to answer, but serves as highlights.

详细说明
Community-acquired pneumonia is common and potentially fatal. Standard-of-care treatment mainly consists of systemic antibiotics and treatment supporting recovery (e.g. oxygen-therapy, fluid rescucitation, respiratory physiotherapy, sufficient dietary intake etc.). As with all medicinal treatments, antibiotic treatment is hard on the body and can lead to side-effects as well as organ-failure in extreme cases.
Antibiotic treatment naturally promotes antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which result in less effective antibiotic treatment, and ultimately it could potentially lead to antibiotics being rendered useless in treating infections such as pneumonia.
A strategy to reduce the promotion of antimicrobial restistance (AMR) is better targeting of the disease-inducing microbes and several other strategies exists. Physicians and researchers usually categorize the targeting of disease-promoting microbes as either "local"/"topical" or "systemic". No "local" treatment of community-acquired pneumonia has been demonstrated to this day, but "local" treatment is theoretically possible with inhaled antibiotics. This treatment strategy has been hypothesized in the last decade, but no studies have been conducted regarding community-acquired pneumonia.
This study will include 460 patients and be conducted in two stages: Stage A and Stage B, each stage including 230 patients.
Patients are included voluntarilty and with prior written informed consent.
Patients included in stage A will be treated with systemic antibiotics for 24 hours and will then be randomized to further treatment with either inhaled levofloxacin 240mg twice daily or continue the "usual care"-treatment that they were receiving. The duration of intervention is up to 5 days.
At 230 included patients a planned interrim analysis will be conducted by an appointed data safety monitoring board of certified healthcare professionals to assess the further continuation of the trial. If favorable assessment, the trial will commence to Stage B.
Patients included in Stage B will be randomized at admission to either usual standard-of-care treatment for 5 days OR inhaled levofloxacin 240mg twice daily for 5 days.
The trial is open-label, which means that both patients and healthcare professionals will know which treatment arm the patient is receiving.
