NCT01963442

Brief Summary

To investigate the non inferiority of a short lasting antibiotic treatment (3 days) when compared to a long lasting antibiotic treatment (8 days), at Day 15 after the beginning of treatment in terms of clinical efficacy, in adults admitted to emergency services for a non severe Community Acquired Pneumonia (PAC), who responded well to 3 days of beta-lactamin treatment (3GC or A/AC).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • clinical evaluation at Day 15

    Clinical evaluation at Day 15 composed of the composite measure of the Clinical examination for clinical symptoms of CAP, recording of the body temperature and confirmation that no additionnal antibiotic treatment was required from Day 8

    Day 15

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • clinical evaluation at Day 30

    Day 30

Other Outcomes (1)

  • mortality all causes at Day 30

    Day 30

Study Arms (2)

Amoxicillin/Clavulanic acid treatment

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

after 3 day treatment of β-lactams, the subjects receive 5-day treatment of Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. Chest X-ray performed at admission and Day 30 and replapses. 'blood sampling /Cell Counts/CRP/Biochemistry' performed at Day 0, Day 30 and relapse

Radiation: Chest X-rayBiological: blood sampling /Cell Counts/ C reactive protein (CRP)/BiochemistryDrug: AugmentinDrug: Beta-Lactams

placebo treatment

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

after 3-day treatment of β-lactams, the subjects receive 5-day treatment of placebo. Chest X-ray performed at admission and Day 30 and replapse. blood sampling /Cell Counts/CRP/Biochemistry' performed at Day 0, Day 30 and relapse
