Measuring delafloxacin levels in patients with skin or bone infections
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study measures how much of the antibiotic delafloxacin reaches your blood and tissues when you are being treated for a skin, soft tissue, or bone/joint infection. The goal is to make sure the drug is working effectively at the site of infection, which could help improve treatment for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have a bacterial skin, soft tissue, or bone/joint infection—such as a wound infection after heart surgery or an infected joint replacement.

- Your kidney function is normal or near-normal (confirmed by a blood test).
- You have not taken any other quinolone antibiotics (like ciprofloxacin or levofloxacin) in the past week.

This study looks at how the antibiotic rifampin behaves in the body when used to treat staph infections in bones or joints. It may help doctors better dose the drug for future patients.
This trial studies whether IV (through a vein) fosfomycin can treat severe bacterial infections in adults. It may help people whose infection is covered by the standard fosfomycin use and who need hospital-level care.
This study looks at whether blood levels of the antibiotic ofloxacin in people over 65 are linked to side effects, in older adults hospitalized for bone and joint infections. It may help doctors choose safer doses, especially when switching from IV treatment to pills.
This study tests if a drug called sitafloxacin can quickly kill mycobacterium abscessus bacteria in the lungs. It may help people with this hard-to-treat infection find a more effective treatment.
This study tests whether giving an antibiotic called levofloxacin under the skin near the surgical cut can help prevent wound infections after emergency abdominal surgery. If you are having an urgent surgery for a dirty or infected belly, this treatment might help you heal with fewer complications.
This trial measures how the body processes cloxacillin when it's given as a continuous infusion for infections. If you're already receiving this treatment, the results may help doctors optimize your dose.
