What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This completed study looked at 104 adults in the ICU with severe pneumonia caused by three common bacteria. Researchers checked whether the bacteria were sensitive to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (AMC) or to third-generation cephalosporins (3GC), which are standard treatments. The goal was to see if AMC could be a good alternative to help reduce antibiotic resistance. The study only reviewed past medical records, so it cannot prove which treatment is better.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (AMC) and third-generation cephalosporins (3GC)
What this could lead to
If the results show AMC works well, it could offer a narrower-spectrum antibiotic option for severe pneumonia, potentially reducing antibiotic resistance.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center retrospective study, not a controlled trial. It only looks at past data, so it cannot prove which antibiotic is better. Results may not apply to other hospitals.
