| Trial ID | Title | Status | Sponsor | Phase | Start Date | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCT00257049 ↗ | A Study of the Safety and Effectiveness of Levofloxacin Compared With Ceftriaxone Sodium or Cefuroxime Axetil in the Treatment of Adults With Pneumonia | Completed | PriCara, Unit of Ortho-McNeil, Inc. | Phase 2/Phase 3 | 1984-01-01 | The purpose of this study is evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of levofloxacin, an antibiotic, compared with ceftriaxone sodium or cefuroxime axetil in the treatment of adults with pneumonia. |
| NCT00257049 ↗ | A Study of the Safety and Effectiveness of Levofloxacin Compared With Ceftriaxone Sodium or Cefuroxime Axetil in the Treatment of Adults With Pneumonia | Completed | Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C. | Phase 2/Phase 3 | 1984-01-01 | The purpose of this study is evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of levofloxacin, an antibiotic, compared with ceftriaxone sodium or cefuroxime axetil in the treatment of adults with pneumonia. |
| NCT00509327 ↗ | Randomized Clinical Trial of Bisacodyl Versus Placebo on Postoperative Bowel Motility in Elective Colorectal Surgery | Completed | University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland | Phase 4 | 2004-11-01 | Postoperative bowel dysmotility is a frequent condition after colorectal surgery. The influence of colon stimulating laxatives have not been studied. This prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study assesses the influence of bisacodyl on postoperative bowel motility in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery. The hypothesis of this trial was that bisacodyl has a beneficial effect on the duration of postoperative ileus. |
| NCT04161599 ↗ | Preoperative Oral Antibiotics With vs Without Mechanical Bowel Preparation to Reduce Surgical Site Infections Following Colonic Resection: an International Randomized Controlled Trial. | Not yet recruiting | Hospital Universitari Vall d'Hebron Research Institute | Phase 4 | 2021-09-14 | The ORALEV Study found that preoperative oral antibiotics can reduce the incidence of surgical site infections after colonic resection, compared with no preparation. The role of mechanical bowel preparation in patients needing colonic surgery is yet to be elucidated. No randomised controlled trials have assessed the impact of mechanical bowel preparation combined with oral antibiotics on the incidence of surgical site infections after colonic surgery, compared with oral antibiotics only. |
| NCT06819592 ↗ | PRophylaxis Against Early VENTilator-associated Infections in Acute Brain Injury | NOT_YET_RECRUITING | The George Institute | PHASE3 | 2025-10-01 | This research is about whether treatment with a commonly used antibiotic can prevent infections in airway and lungs and improves the chance of surviving, if it is given soon after patients commence mechanical ventilation when they have been admitted to hospital with an acute severe brain injury. An acute severe brain injury can occur as a result of a stroke, a traumatic injury or due to lack of oxygen to the brain that happens as a result of a cardiac arrest. Patients who are unconscious after an acute severe brain injury often need assistance to breath adequately, and this assistance is given by a breathing tube, connected to a mechanical ventilator. This treatment is an emergency medical treatment. The breathing tube is inserted into the patients' airway by either their mouth or neck. For patients who need assistance with their breathing from a mechanical ventilator, infections in the airways and lungs, known as pneumonia, are a common complication. Everyone naturally has bacteria in their mouth, esophagus and stomach. Clinicians think that during the process of inserting the breathing tube, small amounts of these bacteria can be introduced into the airways and lung when people are unconscious following an acute severe brain injury, or during the process of placing the breathing tube into the airways. These bacteria are now in a place they aren't meant to be and can cause an infections in the airways and lungs known as pneumonia. The purpose of this research is to see if giving one dose of a common antibiotic can prevent patients developing pneumonia, which is associated with having a breathing tube inserted and being on a ventilator, improving the chance of recovery following the acute severe brain injury and ultimately improving the chance of surviving. When patients have a known infection, current guidelines are to treat them with antibiotics. Antibiotics work to kill the bacteria causing the infection. When a patient has an infection in their lungs, they often need to stay on the mechanical ventilator for longer. While current practice is to give patients with a proven infection in their airways and lungs (pneumonia) antibiotics, it is unknown if giving an antibiotic to patients to prevent these infections before they show signs of pneumonia may lead to better outcomes. |
| NCT06934278 ↗ | Pooled Human Plasma vs Crystalloid in The Management of Children Undergoing Instrumented Spinal Fusion for Scoliosis | RECRUITING | Helsinki University Central Hospital | PHASE3 | 2025-05-02 | OCTAGON trial is a randomized, double-blinded, parallel-group non-inferiority multicenter (Helsinki and Turku University Hospitals, Finland) clinical trial according to CONSORT criteria. 194 adolescents with idiopathic (major curve \> 45 degrees) or neuromuscular scoliosis (major curve \> 50 degrees) are enrolled for the OCTAGON trial comparing pooled human plasma (Octaplas, 10mL/kg, active management) vs. Plasmalyte (10 mL/kg, placebo) before incision as part of the normal intraoperative fluid therapy. Data is collected at baseline and at each follow-up until a minimum of 2-year follow-up. Outcomes Outcomes for the OCTAGON trial include 1) intraoperative blood loss (in mL, primary outcome) and the need for allogenic red blood cell infusion (percentage of patients). Secondary outcomes include health-related quality of life (Scoliosis Research Society 24 outcome questionnaire), postoperative pain (48-hour opioid consumption), operative time (hours), drain output (mL), hidden blood loss (mL), hospital stay, and complications (skin reactions, TRALI, deep surgical site infection, neurologic deficit). Research questions and hypothesis Does prophylactic use of pooled human plasma decrease intraoperative blood loss in adolescents undergoing instrumented spinal fusion for scoliosis? We hypothesize that pooled human plasma will reduce intraoperative and total blood loss by 25% resulting in lower need for blood transfusion and fewer surgical site infections. Objectives To compare the effect of pooled human plasma vs. crystalloid fluids on intraoperative bleeding and total blood loss (drain output and hidden blood loss) in children undergoing posterior spinal fusion for AIS and NMS. Adverse events will be recorded and reported as minor (skin reaction) or major (severe allergic reaction, transfusion related acute lung injury, TRALI, deep surgical site infection, neurologic injury). Ethical aspects The PHP trial has been evaluated via European regulatory authority (EU CT: 2024-514857-31-00) and by Fimea (FIMEA/2024/006588). Informed consent is obtained from the parent(s). Results will be disseminated in high-quality peer-reviewed publications. The individual patient safety and high-quality management of fractures and scoliosis is a priority in this trial. The randomization can be opened at any stage of the treatment process. Based on the clinical decision the randomized treatment can be terminated and treatment provided accord-ing to clinical decision making even if results will be evaluated using the intention to treat princi-ple. Pain management will be prioritized in every clinical scenario and parental presence is always possible. |
