简要总结
Increasing resistance to antibiotic agents has been recognized as a major health problem worldwide that will even aggravate due to the lack of new antimicrobial agents within the next decade [1]. This threat underscores the need to maximize clinical utility of existing antibiotics, through more rational prescription, e.g. optimizing duration of treatment.
Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infection (SAB) is a common disease with about 200,000 cases occurring annually in Europe [2]. A course of at least 14 days of intravenous antimicrobials is considered standard therapy [3-5] in "uncomplicated" SAB. This relatively long course serves to prevent SAB-related complications (such as endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis) that may result from hematogenous dissemination to distant sites. However, there is insufficient evidence that a full course of intravenous antibiotic therapy is always required in patients with a low risk of SAB-related complications.
In a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial we aim to demonstrate that an early switch from intravenous to oral antimicrobial therapy is non-inferior to a conventional 14-days course of intravenous therapy regarding efficacy and safety. An early switch from intravenous to oral therapy would provide several benefits such as earlier discharge, fewer adverse reactions associated with intravenous therapy, increased quality of life, and cost savings.

入选标准
- •Age at least 18 years
- •Not legally incapacitated
- •Written informed consent from the trial subject has been obtained
- •Blood culture positive for S. aureus not considered to represent contamination
- •At least one negative follow-up blood culture obtained within 24-96 hours after the start of adequate antimicrobial therapy to rule out persistent bacteremia and Absence of a blood culture positive for S. aureus at the same time or thereafter.
- •Five to seven full days of appropriate i.v. antimicrobial therapy administered prior to randomization documented in the patient Chart. Appropriate therapy has all of the following characteristics:
- •Antimicrobial therapy has to be initiated within 72h after the first positive blood culture was drawn.
- •Provided in-vitro susceptibility and adequate dosing (as judged by the PI) preferred agents for pre-randomization antimicrobial therapy are flucloxacillin, cloxacillin, vancomycin and daptomycin. However, the following antimicrobials are allowed:
- •MSSR: penicillinase-resistant penicillins (e.g. flucloxacillin, cloxacillin), β-lactam plus β-lactamase-inhibitors (e.g. ampicillin+sulbactam, piperacillin+tazobactam), cephalosporins (except ceftazidime), carbapenems, clindamycin, fluoroquinolones, trimethoprimsulfamethoxazole, doxycycline, tigecycline, vancomycin, teicoplanin, telavancin, linezolid, daptomycin, ceftaroline, ceftobiprole, and macrolides.
- •MRSA: vancomycin, teicoplanin, telavancin, fluoroquinolones, clindamycin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, doxycycline, tigecycline, linezolid, daptomycin, macrolides, ceftaroline, and ceftobiprole.
排除标准
- •Polymicrobial bloodstream infection, defined as isolation of pathogens other than S. aureus from a blood culture obtained in the time from two days prior to the first positive blood culture with S. aureus until randomization. Common skin contaminants (coagulase-negative staphylococci, diphtheroids, Bacillus spp., and Propionibacterium spp.) detected in one of several blood cultures will not be considered to represent polymicrobial infection
- •Recent history (within 3 months) of prior S. aureus bloodstream infection
- •In vitro resistance of S. aureus to all oral or all i.v. study drugs
- •Contraindications for all oral or all i.v. study drugs
- •Previously planned Treatment with active drug against S. aureus during Intervention Phase (e.g. cotrimoxazol prophylaxis)
- •Signs and symptoms of complicated SAB as judged by an ID physician. Complicated infection is defined as at least one of the following:
- •deep-seated focus: e.g. endocarditis, pneumonia, undrained abscess, empyema, and Osteomyelitis
- •septic shock, as defined by the AACP criteria (23), within 4 days before randomization
- •prolonged bacteremia: positive follow-up blood culture more than 72h after the start of adequate antimicrobial therapy
- •body temperature >38 °C on two separate days within 48h before randomization
- •Presence of the following non-removable foreign bodies (if not removed 2 days or more before randomization):
- •prosthetic heart valve
- •deep-seated vascular graft with foreign material (e.g. PTFE or dacron graft). Hemodialysis shunts are not considered deep-seated vascular grafts.
- •ventriculo-atrial shunt
- •Presence of a prosthetic joint (if not removed 2 days or more before randomization). This is not an exclusion criterion, if all of the following conditions are fulfilled:
