Brief summary
The aim of this study is to describe the real clinical use of Dalbavancin in Spain between January 2018 and December 2019.
Detailed description
Dalbavancin is a new lipoglycopeptide approved for the treatment of ABSSSIs (Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin-Structure Infections) with activity against Gram-positive pathogens, including MRSA. Dalbavancin has unique pharmacokinetics properties, with a terminal half-life of 14.4 days, permitting a single intravenous dosing. Dalbavancin has shown a favourable efficacy and safety profile in patients with ABSSSI in randomized controlled trials. However, information regarding daily clinical practice is limited. The main objective of this study is to describe the real clinical practice with Dalbavancin in Spain.
