Recruiting studies
- NCT07376889RecruitingPhase 4
Combination antibiotics for blood staph infection

BrnoAges 18 years+ - NCT07148960Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Does early dual therapy improve outcomes for staph bloodstream infections?
This study looks at whether giving two antibiotics early for a serious staph infection in the blood leads to better results than the standard one antibiotic. It uses existing hospital monitoring and follow-up visits to track progress.
Morgantown, West VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05640336Enrolling by invitation
Antibiotics for early knee or hip joint infections after surgery
This study compares two antibiotic plans for acute (early) infections around an artificial knee or hip, using a procedure to clean the joint and try to keep the implant. It may help find the best approach to control infection and then prevent it from coming back with longer-term antibiotic treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07713433Recruiting
Antibiotics versus none for pediatric colorectal surgery
This trial tests whether giving oral antibiotics before surgery is better than giving no antibiotics for children who are having their colostomy closed or a pull-through procedure. It aims to reduce infections and improve recovery in children with conditions like anorectal malformation or Hirschsprung's disease.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 1–15 - NCT04681339Recruiting
Antibiotics in hospitalized children with community pneumonia
This study looks at how antibiotics are prescribed for children who are hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia. It may help doctors choose more appropriate antibiotic use for kids in the hospital.
Filderstadt, Baden-WurttembergAges 3 months–18 years - NCT04754737Recruiting
Testing antibiotic timing before bladder Botox injections
This study looks at whether taking antibiotics shortly before bladder Botox injections affects outcomes for people with overactive bladder. It aims to clarify what to do about antibiotic use before treatment.
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05699174RecruitingPhase 3
Compare two antibiotic routes for infected broken bones after surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether giving antibiotics by mouth (PO) works as well as giving antibiotics through a vein (IV) for an infected fracture that has not healed after prior surgery. It may help you understand which approach is safer and more effective for getting the bone to heal.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06004739Recruiting
Antibiotics for older adults with delirium and abnormal urine tests
This trial tests whether giving antibiotics helps older adults in the hospital who have delirium (sudden confusion) and signs of bacteria in their urine but no clear urinary infection. It aims to see if treatment can improve confusion and avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 60 years+ - NCT06406114RecruitingPhase 2
Better Allergy Testing for Cephalosporin Antibiotics
This study tests better ways to diagnose allergies to common cephalosporin antibiotics, like Keflex and Rocephin. By participating, you may learn if you are truly allergic to these medicines and if they are safe for you to take in the future.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18–70 - NCT06607887RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotics after gallbladder surgery
This trial tests whether taking antibiotics after laparoscopic gallbladder removal helps prevent infection. It aims to find out if antibiotics are needed for patients without certain health conditions.
MinyaAges 18 years+ - NCT07030673Recruiting
Stopping antibiotics early in older adults with viral infections
This trial tests whether elderly patients hospitalized with a viral lower respiratory infection can safely stop antibiotics early. It aims to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use and side effects.
AmiensAges 65 years+ - NCT07202949RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose antibiotics plus methenamine for chronic UTI in women
This trial compares a new treatment approach—high-dose antibiotics combined with methenamine hippurate—against standard care for women with chronic urinary tract infections (UTIs). It aims to find if the combination works better at relieving persistent symptoms like pain and frequent urination.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07532941RecruitingPhase 4
Stopping antibiotics early versus completing the full course
This study compares two ways of giving antibiotics to children: stopping when symptoms feel better versus finishing all the prescribed doses. Researchers want to see if stopping early is safe and works just as well, which could help reduce unnecessary antibiotic use.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 1–17 - NCT07067736Recruiting
Cefazolin Dose Before Shunt Surgery: Checking Brain Fluid Levels
This study measures how well the antibiotic cefazolin reaches the fluid around your brain and spine when given right before shunt surgery. It may help doctors choose the best dose to prevent infections.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06771050RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotics and surgery for hip and knee joint infections
This trial tests different antibiotic types and durations, plus surgical approaches, for people with a current joint infection in a hip or knee. It aims to find the best way to treat the infection and prevent it from coming back.
Garran, Australian Capital TerritoryAges 18 years+ - NCT05971537RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic lock treatment for repeat peritonitis in catheter patients
This trial studies using an “antibiotic lock” inside a Tenckhoff catheter to prevent relapsing or repeat peritonitis in people on peritoneal dialysis. It may help stop infections that come back soon after antibiotics, especially when the same germ is causing them.
Tai PoAges 18 years+ - NCT05597540RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter antibiotics for kidney transplant kidney infections
This study compares giving antibiotics for 7 days versus 14 days to treat acute kidney infections (pyelonephritis) in people with kidney transplants. It aims to see if the shorter course works just as well and is safer or easier to complete.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05280132Recruiting
Testing quick tests to shorten antibiotics in severe COPD flare
This trial checks whether using fast test results (PCR from samples, a blood marker called procalcitonin, and sputum appearance) can safely reduce how long you need antibiotics during a severe COPD flare. It may help you receive fewer days of antibiotics while still controlling the infection risk.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07488416Recruiting
Ginger paste vs. antibiotics for infected baby molars
This study tests a new paste made from zinc oxide and gingerol (a ginger extract) to treat infected baby molars. It may be an alternative to the standard antibiotic paste, with fewer antibiotics and potentially fewer side effects.
CairoAges 4–8 - NCT06002607Recruiting
Shorter vs longer antibiotics for severe skin infections
This study compares a shorter course (about 7 days) of antibiotics to a longer course (about 14 days) for people who had surgery for a severe skin and muscle infection. The goal is to see if a shorter treatment works just as well.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06479941Recruiting
