Antibiotic combinations for enterococcus blood infection
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at whether using two or more antibiotics together works better than one alone for a specific type of blood infection caused by Enterococcus faecalis bacteria. The goal is to find the safest and most effective way to treat this infection and improve outcomes for patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a combination of two antibiotics (cefepime and enmetazobactam) to treat complicated urinary tract infections that have spread to the blood. It aims to see if this new combination works better than other antibiotics and is safe for patients.
This study looks at how doctors can best manage antibiotics for a common type of blood infection (caused by Enterobacterales bacteria like E. coli). If you join, your treatment will be carefully guided to make sure you get the right antibiotics at the right time, which may help you recover faster and prevent antibiotic resistance.
This trial looks at how well certain penicillin-type antibiotics work for treating a bloodstream infection caused by a bacterium called Enterococcus faecalis. It may help doctors know which treatment is best for patients with this infection.
This trial tests whether piperacillin-tazobactam works as well as meropenem to treat bloodstream infections caused by certain E. coli or Klebsiella germs that resist common cephalosporin antibiotics. It may help you avoid a “bigger” antibiotic if the study drug is equally effective.
This study tests whether a simpler antibiotic, cefotetan, works as well as the usual treatment for E. coli bloodstream infections. It may offer an effective option with fewer side effects for some patients.
This study tests different antibiotic combinations for severe infections caused by hard-to-treat Gram-negative bacteria (like Pseudomonas or Acinetobacter). The goal is to find the best treatment for bloodstream infections or pneumonia that started in the hospital.
