General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The primary goal of the study is to examine if and in which extent the effect of a dose adjusted administration of piperacillin/tazobactam after therapeutic drug monitoring has a benefit on a stable fever recovery without changing the anti infective therapy in patients with neutropenia after myelo-suppressive cytostatic chemotherapy

Dosage and administration details |
First 4/0.5g Pip/Taz bolus over 15-30 minutes for all participants, then adjust dose according to 4-hour plasma levels for piperacillin. Daily for the first three days of treatment with Pip/Taz according to the measured plasma levels after the first application of the day or the first application in the study, further therapy is performed with the dose after the last dose adjustment
In case of plasma levels >160mg/l (10xMHK), dose adjustment is made until the levels are <160mg/l after 4 hours.
In case of a delayed result (6-8h after administration), the next administration is continued as before and the dose adjustment is only implemented with the next but one administration.
Maximum dose 24g piperacillin (plus 3g tazobactam) in 24 hours.

Date |
Amendment |

29 Sep 2016 |
The requirements of the Ethics Committee and the comments of the BfArM were integrated into the trial protocol and patient information after the initial application. Changes in the protocol included additional signature lines for the responsible analyst at the Institute for Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Diagnostics and the supplier of the investigational product to the UKJ pharmacy, information on the dosage and application of Pip/Taz and the indication that patient consent must be obtained before the onset of fever. In addition, further information was provided on the criteria for discontinuation.
Changes in the patient information included the revision of some of the contents (including terms understood by laypersons, optional information for the family doctor, dosage/application according to in-house standards). The approval or approving assessment is dated 24.10.2016 and 10.10.2016. |
