Recruiting studies
- NCT06640491RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Antibiotics via bone injection for knee replacement
This study tests giving antibiotics (cefazolin and vancomycin) through a small needle into the shin bone during knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see if this way of giving antibiotics works well to prevent infection.
Houston, TexasAges 18 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 - NCT07585487Recruiting
How medications work in children of different weights during surgery
This study measures how two common medications—paracetamol (pain reliever) and cefazolin (antibiotic)—move through the body differently in children who are normal weight versus overweight. Researchers will take small blood samples during routine surgery to understand the best doses for each child.
GhentAges 2–15 - 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+ - NCT06426836Recruiting
Better antibiotic dosing for children on ECMO
This trial studies how to give the right dose of common antibiotics to children on ECMO (a heart-lung bypass machine). The goal is to help doctors choose the best dose to fight infections while keeping the child safe.
Brussels, Brussels CapitalAges Up to 15 years - NCT05852158RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotics to prevent infection after jaw surgery
This trial tests whether giving antibiotics can lower the chance of infection after orthognathic (jaw) surgery. It may help by preventing post-surgery infections, but participation depends on your health history and medication allergies.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 16 years+ - NCT02996656Recruiting
Antibiotic prevention for skin bacteria in shoulder surgery
This study checks whether giving an antibiotic “ahead of surgery” can reduce problems from common skin bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes) during primary shoulder surgery. It may help lower the risk of infection around the new joint/repair.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06327113RecruitingPhase 2
Antibiotic wound spray for hard-to-heal chronic wounds
This study tests a wound spray containing antibiotics to treat chronic wounds that haven't healed with standard care. It might help if you have a wound on your leg, arm, or trunk that has been present for over 4 weeks and is not getting smaller.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07549542Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Testing antibiotic delivery method for hip replacement surgery
This study compares a new way of delivering antibiotics directly into the bone during hip replacement surgery versus the standard IV method. The goal is to see if this approach prevents infection just as well while potentially improving outcomes.
Somerset, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04538053RecruitingPhase 4
Simpler antibiotics for uncomplicated bone and joint infections in children
This trial looks at whether a simpler antibiotic plan can work for children with uncomplicated bone or joint infections that start in the community. It may help reduce the need for complicated treatment while still keeping the infection under control.
Kingswood, New South WalesAges 1–18 - NCT04886284RecruitingPhase 2
Cefazolin plus ertapenem for MSSA bloodstream infection
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding ertapenem to cefazolin can improve treatment of staphylococcus (“S. aureus”) bloodstream infection that is likely methicillin-susceptible (MSSA). It aims to start the right antibiotics quickly, before MRSA status is fully confirmed, using early testing and a treatment plan guided by infectious-disease specialists.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–100 - NCT05137119RecruitingPhase 4
Adaptive study of treatments for staph bloodstream infection
This trial tests the best treatment approach for bloodstream infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus (“S. aureus”). It uses a flexible design to decide which treatment track you fit into, and may help improve recovery while avoiding unnecessary medications.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT05447559RecruitingPhase 4
Testing how long to give antibiotics after heart surgery
This study looks at how long patients should receive an antibiotic after certain types of heart surgery, to help prevent infections. It may help find the best “duration” of antibiotic prophylaxis after surgery through the breastbone (median sternotomy).
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05655091RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized IV antibiotics for serious Staph aureus infections
This Phase 2 study tests whether continuous IV antibiotics plus “drug level monitoring” (TDM) works better than the usual treatment for complicated Staph aureus infections. It may help ensure the antibiotic dose stays in an effective range while you’re being treated.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06336824RecruitingPhase 3
Switching from IV to oral antibiotics for staph bloodstream infection
This trial tests whether switching from IV antibiotics to oral antibiotics after 3–7 days is safe and effective for people with uncomplicated Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infections. It may help you avoid a longer hospital stay and reduce IV-related complications.
Johor Bahru, JohorAges 18 years+ - NCT06576154RecruitingPhase 3
Antibiotics to prevent infection after hernia repair in high-risk patients
This trial tests whether giving antibiotics before surgery can lower the chance of infection after groin hernia repair in people who are at higher risk due to age, diabetes, obesity, or other health conditions. If you're over 60 and have one of these risk factors, this study may help you avoid a wound infection.
AleppoAges 18 years+ - NCT06055712Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Antibiotics for children with open fractures
This trial tests whether giving antibiotics can prevent infections in children with mild open fractures (grade 1 or 2) that don't need surgery. It aims to find a safer, simpler treatment plan.

What Cefazolin is being studied for
Conditions with recruiting Cefazolin studies.
Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Cefazolin?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 17 recruiting studies that include Cefazolin, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Cefazolin trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Cefazolin an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Cefazolin or a specific trial is right for you.
