Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The main objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of a 3-day intravenous (IV) antibiotic therapy versus a 3-day IV therapy followed by a 7-day oral antibiotic therapy for the treatment of AP in children on the occurrence of renal scarring. ;Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary endpoint is the occurrence of renal scaring, as measured by cortical defect by dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA) renal scintigraphy at 6 months after the beginning of therapy (day 180 ± 15 days). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Secondary endpoints: - Clinical cure at the end of the antibiotic treatment (day 14 ± 3 days), defined by apyrexia AND no abdominal pain AND no feeding problem: medical visit. - Recurrent infection (including AP relapse or reinfection) within 90 days after the beginning of therapy (day 90 ± 15 days): phone call - Colonization with antimicrobial resistant Enterobacteriaceae in the gastrointestinal tract between at days 3 and 14. - Alpha-diversity measured by Shannon’s index at days 3, 14 and 45 | — |
