Randomized Study Comparing Different Durations of Antibiotic Treatment for Diabetic Foot Infections
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Surgical debridement (if needed), Microbiological sampling, and 5 other interventions for Diabetic Foot. Completed, enrolled 182 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a randomized, unblinded, single-centre study. After eventual surgical debridement (not amputation), patients will be randomized to receive 1 of 2 targeted antibiotic regimens, in the ratio 1:1. For diabetic toe osteomyelitis, the patients will be randomized between a 3 and a 6 week's arm, for soft tissue infections between 10 and 20 days. The final assessments used in the primary efficacy analysis will be obtained at the test-of-cure (TOC) visit approximately 60 days after treatment is stopped.
