First seen Feb 12, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study tests whether giving a daily antibiotic (pivmecillinam) to kidney transplant recipients at high risk of bloodstream infections can reduce their chance of getting one. 150 participants will receive either the antibiotic or a placebo for 6 months after transplant. The goal is to see if this personalized approach can lower infections, hospital stays, and improve quality of life without causing antibiotic resistance.
