Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Rifampicin, is key in the treatment of staphylococcal PJIs. Rifabutin has a better profile of tolerance than rifampicin regarding the risk of interaction with concomitant medications and liver disorders. The hypothesis is that rifabutin may be an alternative antibiotic option as efficient as rifampicin for the treatment of staphylococcal PJIs, with a better safety profile. The investigator aim to demonstrate the non-inferiority of rifabutin as compared with rifampicin prescribed in combination treatment for PJIs.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: RIFAMPICIN

Patient with staphylococcal PJI, treated with DAIR strategy, and randomized in the control group will receive rifampicin in association with another antibiotic except rifabutin, as-per recommendations for 12 weeks.

Drug: Rifampicin
10 mg/kg per day (range 600 mg to 1,200 mg) rifampicin tablet in 1 daily dose for 12 weeks with a companion treatment

Experimental: RIFABUTIN

Patient with staphylococcal PJI treated with DAIR strategy, and randomized in the experimental group, will receive rifabutin in association with another antibiotic except rifampicin, as-per recommendations for 12 weeks.

Drug: Rifabutin
2 tablets of 150 mg per day rifabutin tablet daily for 12 weeks in 1 administration with a companion treatment

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Treatment failure [At one year]

    Treatment failure defined as one of following events: The need for any further surgical procedure - i.e. implants removal, implants exchange or amputation; And/or PJI related death; And/or use of suppressive antibiotic therapy that was not planned before randomization

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Occurrence of serious adverse events (SAEs), including death (i.e. all cause) [At the end of 12 weeks duration of antibiotic treatment planned]

    Proportion of patient which are free from SAEs occurrence, as defined by: -Patients who completed the entire 12 weeks duration of antibiotic treatment planned initially and; xWho did not experience grade 3-4 adverse events, including death, regardless of the link with antibiotic therapy; xWho did not experience adverse events which led to either to: Reduce the dosage or split the treatment to two take/day; Or stop any component of the antibiotic treatment.

  2. Occurrence of any adverse event that could be related to rifampicin or rifabutin [At the end of 12 weeks duration of antibiotic treatment planned]

    Number and rate of patients in each arm who experiences: Liver cytolysis (>=2N for ALT AND/OR AST) Acute Kidney failure as defined by serum creatinine increase in KDIGO Digestive symptoms, including diarrhea Who required a modification of antibiotic dosage during the 12 weeks' period of antibiotic treatment Uveitis/ophthalmologic disorder Neurological disorder

  3. Proportion of patients from each arm who will complete the 12-week duration of rifampicin/rifabutin treatment, early termination of the planned 12 weeks' period of antibiotics [At the end of 12 weeks duration of antibiotic treatment planned]

    Early termination rate will be measured in each arm, as the number of patients having stopped rifampicin or rifabutin before the planned 12 weeks period over the total number of patients enrolled in the studied arm.

  4. Adherence to antibiotics regimen [At the end of 12 weeks duration of antibiotic treatment planned]

    Adherence rate to medication will be measured as the number of days on which all doses were missed over the number of days of planned antibiotic therapy. Patients enrolled in the study will have to fill their pill count in a daily notebook.

  5. Quality of life, as evaluated by EQ 5D 3L questionnaire [At the end of the study follow up, an average of 24 months]

    Quality of life, as evaluated by the use EQ 5D 3L auto-questionnaire as used in previous randomized clinical trial on bone and joint infection

  6. Functional prognosis using Oxford questionnaire evolution according to location of PJI [At the end of the study follow up, an average of 24 months]

    Oxford Scores as used in previous randomized clinical trial on bone and joint infection

  7. Long term efficacy of rifampicin and rifabutin treatment [At the end of the study follow up, an average of 24 months]

    Long term efficacy: treatment failure, as defined for primary outcome, at 24 months

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
  1. Hip or knee Prosthetic joint infection treated by debridement, antibiotic therapy initiation and retention of prothesis (DAIR strategy)

  2. Infected with at least one of the following microorganisms:

  3. Staphylococcus aureus

  4. Coagulase-negative staphylococci

  5. Microorganisms susceptible to rifampicin and at least one other antibiotic suitable for the treatment of PJI (e.g., penicillin, fluoroquinolone, (doxy/mino)cycline, oxazolidinone, cotrimoxazole, daptomycin, glycopeptide, macrolide, fusidic acid), regardless of sensitivity to methicillin.

  6. Age ≥ 18 years
