Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6-10 days post-treatment ;Main Objective: To demonstrate non-inferiority of oral fosfomycin-trometamol compared to oral ciprofloxacin as a step-down treatment for E.coli AF-UTI in women for the cumulative incidence of survival and clinical cure (resolution of symptoms) 6-10 days post-treatment.;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoint: The primary endpoint is the cumulative incidence of clinical cure (resolution of symptoms, incl. survival) ;Secondary Objective: 1) To demonstrate non-inferiority of oral fosfomycin-trometamol compared to oral ciprofloxacin as a step-down treatment for E.coli AF-UTI in women on microbiological cure 6-10 days post-treatment, the cumulative incidence of early study discontinuation, the cumulative incidence of clinical cure, the cumulative incidence of mortality, ICU admittances, relapses, reinfections, readmissions, additional antibiotic treatment for Urinary Tract Infections (UTI), adverse events, the total days of hospitalisation and days of absenteeism within 30-35 days post-treatment. 2) to identify associations between patient/disease or treatment variables/and the primary endpoint 6-10 days post-treatment and ICU admission and mortality 30-35 days post-treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary endpoints: 1. The cumulative incidence of microbiological cure 6-10 days post-treatment 2. The cumulative incidence of survival AND clinical cure (resolution of symptoms) AND microbiological cure 6-10 days post-treatment 3. The cumulative incidence of acquired fosfomycin resistance, ciprofloxacin resistance or ESBL-producing bacteria in urine culture 6-10 days post-treatment 4. The cumulative incidence of survival and clinical cure (resolution of symptoms) 30-35 days post-treatment 5. The cumulative incidence of mortality for any reason or related to UTI or study medicines within 30-35 days post-treatment 6. The cumulative incidence of ICU admissions for any reason or related to UTI or study medicines within 30-35 days post-treatment 7. The cumulative incidence of readmissions for any reason or related to UTI or study medicines within 30-35 days post-treatment 8. The cumulative incidence of relapses within 30-35 days post-treatment 9. The cumulative incidence of reinfections within 30-35 days post-treatment 10. The cumulative incidence of additional antibiotic use for UTI within 30-35 days post-treatment 11. The cumulative incidence of early discontinuation of study medicines because of adverse events OR because of loss of complaints 12. Total days of hospitalisation and Intensive Care Unit stay within 30-35 days post-treatment 13. The cumulative incidence of absenteeism within 30-35 days post-treatment 14. The cumulative incidence of study protocol related and unrelated adverse events, within 30-35 days post-treatment 15. Patient characteristics associated with the primary or secondary outcomes in both study arms (Charlson comorbidity index, Diabetes Mellitus y/n, indwelling catheter y/n, age </= 65 years, treatment restrictions at admission y/n, treatment restrictions at randomisation y/n, renal stones y/n) 16. Disease related characteristics associated with the primary or secondary outcomes in both study arms (
