- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Tours
- Brief Summary
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a serious infection with a significant burden for patients and hospitals (in France, median length of hospital stay = 43 days), partly due to the long duration of intravenous (IV) antibacterial treatment recommended by international guidelines, between 4 and 6 weeks in most situations.
A recent survey of practices regarding the management of IE in France showed that a switch from IV to oral antibiotics is feasible, when patients with left-sided Streptococcus-Enterococcus IE are stable after an initial course of IV antibiotic treatment, with or without valvular surgery.
These practices have not been associated with unfavourable outcome, while significantly reducing the duration and cost of hospitalization, the risk of nosocomial infection, and patients' discomfort.
There has been no randomized controlled trial (RCT) in the field of IE over the last 20 years; current guidelines are mostly based on expert advice, in vitro studies, animal experiments, or clinical studies performed before the 90's.
The RODEO 2 project is an unprecedented opportunity to bring back evidence-based medicine in the field of IE.
Most experts acknowledge that the pharmacological PK/PD characteristics of antibiotics such as amoxicillin allow a high level of efficacy in the treatment of IE when orally administrated after an IV period of induction.
It's needed to conduct RCTs that clearly demonstrate the clinical non-inferiority of this strategy for streptococci, and enterococci IE with a benefit regarding costs.
The RODEO 2 project corresponds to one pragmatic trial assessing the impact of a switch strategy, making it a comparative effectiveness trial that should be able to feed the next revision of IE international guidelines and to change practices in IE management.
- Detailed Description
The RODEO 2 study is designed to determine the safety and efficacy of partial oral treatment of IE compared with traditional full-length parenteral treatment. Our primary objective is to demonstrate that in patients with left-sided multi-susceptible Streptococcus-Enterococcus IE who have received at least 10 days of IV antibiotic treatment with or without valvular surgery, a switch to an oral combination of amoxicillin between Day 10 and Day 28 after initiation of the IV antibiotic treatment, is not inferior to the continuation of the conventional IV antibiotic treatment regarding to treatment failure within 3 months after the end of antibiotic treatment.
Nationwide, noninferiority, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label trials.
Randomisation will only be offered to patients who have received at least 10 days of IV conventional antibiotic treatment of IE, and fulfil the inclusion criteria.
Randomisation will take place between Day 10 and Day 28 after initiation of parenteral antibiotic therapy or valvular surgery, thus ensuring to have at least 14 days of oral therapy in the experimental group.
Patients will be eligible whether they have undergone valvular surgery or not. This will imply that surgery procedure prior to randomisation will be heterogeneous, but randomisation will be stratified on the requirement of valvular surgery as part of the treatment of the current episode of IE or not.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Treatment failure up to 6 months after the end of antibiotic treatment Failure is a composite outcome defined by death from all causes and/or symptomatic embolic events and/or unplanned valvular surgery and/or a microbiological relapse (with the primary pathogen).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method microbiological relapse with a different pathogen from the primary pathogen up to 6 months after the end of antibiotic treatment] Relapse of positive blood cultures with a different pathogen within 3 months after the end of antibiotic therapy
Echocardiography up to 6 months after the end of antibiotic treatment An apparition, an increase or decrease of the following items: vegetation, abscess, perforation, fistula, dehiscence of a prosthetic valve, will be searched at each ultrasound examination at : the end of antibiotic treatment, at 3 months and 6 months after the end of antibiotic treatment

numer of participants with a switch back from oral to IV antibiotic treatment up to the end of antibiotic treatment For experimental group only . An assessment of the need for a return to parenteral antibiotic in the experimental group.
Compliance with oral antibiotic treatment up to 4 weeks after randomisation For experimental group only. The assessment of compliance with oral antibiotic treatment will be carried out at each visit during the treatment period though a "patient book" which will permit to note take/omissions of treatment; and though the return of the treatments to the pharmacy of the investigational site.
Calculation of the duration and cumulative dose of antibiotic treatment actually received will be performed, and compared to the regimen prescribed.Cost per patient up to 6 months after the end of antibiotic treatment Analysis using data from three centers (Tours, Rennes, Nancy) to compare both strategy (oral switch vs. pan-IV) for the cost per patient
Budget impact analysis (BIA) up to 6 months after the end of antibiotic treatment With data from three centers (Tours, Nancy, Rennes). With data from three centers (Tours, Nancy, Rennes). Allow to estimate the financial consequences of the adoption and diffusion of a new health intervention (the oral strategy). BIA must be calculated on a yearly basis.
