Primary Endpoint
The primary endpoint is the occurrence of renal scaring, as measured by cortical defect by dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA) renal scintigraphy at 6 months after the beginning of therapy (day 180 ± 15 days).

Study Overview

Brief Summary

The main objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of a 3-day intravenous (IV) antibiotic therapy versus a 3-day IV therapy followed by a 7-day oral antibiotic therapy for the treatment of AP in children on the occurrence of renal scarring.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

The primary endpoint is the occurrence of renal scaring, as measured by cortical defect by dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA) renal scintigraphy at 6 months after the beginning of therapy (day 180 ± 15 days).

The primary endpoint is the occurrence of renal scaring, as measured by cortical defect by dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA) renal scintigraphy at 6 months after the beginning of therapy (day 180 ± 15 days).

Secondary Outcomes

  • - Clinical cure at the end of the antibiotic treatment (day 14 ± 3 days), defined by apyrexia AND no abdominal pain AND no feeding problem: medical visit.
  • Recurrent infection (including AP relapse or reinfection) within 90 days after the beginning of therapy (day 90 ± 15 days): phone call
  • Colonization with antimicrobial resistant Enterobacteriaceae in the gastrointestinal tract at days of randomization and 14.
  • Alpha-diversity measured by Shannon’s index at inclusion, randomization, , 14 and 45.
