Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pseudomonas aeruginosa eradication at the end of the treatment.

    sucessful eradication is defined as negative airway culture for P aeruginosa and end of study drug which is after 3 months for ciproxin-colistin (CC) and after 1 months for tobramycin for inhalation (TIS)

    end of study drug treatment ie 3 months for CC and at 1 months for TIS

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • P aeruginosa eradication at 6 months after study entry

    6 months

  • time to new Pa positive culture (= relapse)

    1 year

  • change from baseline FEV1% pred, IgG z score, BMI z score was followed

    1 year

  • Antibody titer for specific anti Pseudomonas antibodies

    1 year

  • P aeruginosa infection status

    1 year

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Ciproxin-inhaled Colistin

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

oral ciprofloxacin (30mg/kg/day) plus inhaled colistimethate sodium (Colistineb® 2x2 mill U daily) for 3 months

Eligibility Criteria

AgeUp to 18 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • diagnosis of CF (clinical signs consistent with CF and a sweat chloride \> 60 mEq/l by quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis and/or two CF causing mutations identified)
  • 'First' or 'new Pa infection' defined as 'first Pa isolation ever' or 'isolation of Pa from the airway (sputum, throat swab or BAL) after a Pa free interval of at least 6 months and documented with at least 3 negative cultures'.

You may not qualify if:

  • chronic Pa infection defined according to the Leeds criteria\[17\]
  • pulmonary exacerbation needing IV AB treatment at time of new Pa isolate
  • Pa isolation at time of CF diagnosis
  • patient already on an antipseudomonal antibiotic
  • interval between positive culture and start of treatment \> 4 weeks.
