What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at 790 adults with S. maltophilia infections, a hard-to-treat bacteria. Researchers will compare patients who got one antibiotic versus those who got a combination, to see which group has fewer deaths within 30 days. The goal is to find the best treatment approach using real-world data.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors choose the best treatment strategy for S. maltophilia infections, potentially reducing deaths.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be influenced by other factors. It does not test a new drug, only compares existing treatments.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The selection criterion was the isolation of S. maltophilia in consecutive clinical samples from hospitalised adult patients, identified in microbiology laboratories between 2024 and 2025. The investigators first estimated the incidence of the S. maltophilia isolations per 1,000 admissions. Then, differenced episodes of infection defined if the treating physician considered of clinical significance the S. maltophilia isolation. Different infection episodes were considered from 30 days after the index episode.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult patients * S. maltophilia infections * Different episodes if a new infection ocurred \> 30 days since the index episode Exclusion Criteria: * isolates obtained from patients outside of hospital admission * microbiological or clinical colonization * hospitalizations shorter than 72 hours since the time zero * patients who died in the first 72 hours since the time zero or who were in imminent risk of death * polymicrobial infections * receipt of inappropriate therapy after the time of the emulated randomization, defined as the absence of in vitro active antimicrobials or the administration of active antimicrobials for less than 48 hours * absence of data outcomes
