NCT04409769
Brief Summary:
Staphyloccous aureus and coagulase negative staphylocci are responsible of a large marjority of PJI. Regarding the high rate of methicillin resistance, current guidelines recommend the use of a glycopeptide, and most frequently vancomycin, as the anti-gram positive agent in empirical therapy, while awaiting the microbiological results. Vancomycin is not considered as a safe antibiotic, and daptomycin is frequently an alternative option.
Ceftaroline and ceftobiprole are the only betalactam active on methicillin-resistant staphylococci. As some data report a synergistic activity with daptomycin, they could be an option in pandrug-resistant staphylococci BJI, but their use if off label in this indication.
