简要总结
The goal of this multicentre randomized controlled trial is to investigate if a very short-course of antibiotics (1 day) for cholangitis after adequate drainage is non-inferior with respect to clinical cure in comparison with a standard course of antibiotics (4 to 7 days). Secondary objectives include:
- Will a one-day course of antibiotics for cholangitis after adequate drainage be non-inferior with respect to relapse of cholangitis and mortality in comparison with a standard course of antibiotics?
- Will a one-day course of antibiotics for cholangitis after adequate drainage result in less adverse drug events in comparison with a standard course of antibiotics?
- Will a one-day course of antibiotics for cholangitis after adequate drainage reduce length of hospital stay?
- Will a one-day course of antibiotics for cholangitis after adequate drainage improve quality of life?
- Will a one-day course of antibiotics for cholangitis after adequate drainage be cost-effective?
详细描述
Acute cholangitis is an infection of the biliary tract which is managed with biliary drainage and antibiotic therapy (ABT). Currently the international Tokyo Guidelines 2018 (TG18) recommend 4 to 7 days of ABT after source control. The national SWAB guideline of 2020 suggests a course of one to 3 days after biliary drainage. There are no randomized studies to guide the duration of ABT for acute cholangitis. Our recent retrospective study in the Netherlands showed that a short course of ABT seems safe and more evidence is available showing that other bacterial infections, including abdominal and bloodstream infections, can be treated with a short antibiotic course than previously assumed. Hence, the hypothesis is that a very short-course of ABT for acute cholangitis is non-inferior to a course of 4 to 7 days after adequate biliary drainage. This study is designed as a multicenter non-inferiority randomized controlled trial. Patients will be randomly assigned to the intervention group (one day of antibiotic therapy after ERCP) or the comparator group (4 to 7 days of antibiotic therapy after ERCP).

研究组 & 干预措施
Very short-course antibiotics
The antibiotic regimens will be according to the local hospital's antibiotic guideline for cholangitis (e.g. dosage form, dosage, frequency)and/or the national SWAB guideline in the Netherlands. In the experimental group, duration of ABT after adequate drainage will be 1 day. The duration will be 4 days and can be extended to 7 days in case of gram-negative bacteraemia, according to the national SWAB guideline regarding gram-negative sepsis.
干预措施: cefrtriaxone, gentamicin, cefuroxim, ciprofloxin or other antibiotics according to local guideline (24 hours)
Standard course antibiotics
The antibiotic regimens will be according to the local hospital's antibiotic guideline for cholangitis, which are based on the previously mentioned national SWAB guideline. This means that the type of ABT, dosage and frequency will be comparable to the experimental group. In the comparator group treatment duration with ABT after ERCP will be according to the international well known and widely used TG18. The duration will be 4 days and can be extended to 7 days in case of gram-negative bacteraemia, according to the national SWAB guideline regarding gram-negative sepsis.
干预措施: cefrtriaxone, gentamicin, cefuroxim, ciprofloxin or other antibiotics according to local guideline (4 to 7 days)
结局指标
主要结局
clinical cure rate by day 14 after ERCP without relapse by day 30
时间窗: 30 days
Clinical cure is defined as the absence of both fever (\>38°C) and/or shaking chills, and initial presenting symptoms. Relapse is defined as the initiation of new antibiotic therapy for recurrent cholangitis, subsequent infection in the hepatic-pancreatic-biliary region, or any other subsequent infection possibly related to the initial episode of cholangitis.
次要结局
- Relapse of cholangitis within 90 days(90 days)
- Rate of any other subsequent infection requiring antibiotic therapy within 90 days.(90 days)
- Rate of subsequent infections with MDR bacteria or Clostridioides difficile within 90 days.(90 days)
- Rate of other adverse drug events within 14 days(14 days)
- Length of intensive care and hospital stay for the initial episode of cholangitis.(30 days)
- All-cause 90-day mortality.(90 days)
- Quality of life and health utility.(90 days)
- Societal costs and cost-effectiveness/-utility(90 days)
