gentamicin and Colorectal Cancer

gentamicin has been researched along with Colorectal Cancer in 13 studies

Gentamicins: A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS.

"Two hundred patients with gastric, bladder, or colorectal cancer were randomized to receive preoperative PA, group A received penicillin G sodium and gentamicin and group B received clindamycin and amikacin intravenously."5.17Comparing a combination of penicillin G and gentamicin to a combination of clindamycin and amikacin as prophylactic antibiotic regimens in prevention of clean contaminated wound infections in cancer surgery. ( El-Mahallawy, HA; El-Sayed Safa, MM; Hassan, SS; Khafagy, MM; Khalifa, HI, 2013)
"We compared postoperative wound infection rates in 221 colorectal surgery patients randomized to receive systemic gentamicin/metronidazole with (Group I, n = 107) or without (Group II, n = 114) the gentamicin-collagen sponge."2.68Prevention of wound infection in elective colorectal surgery by local application of a gentamicin-containing collagen sponge. ( Nijhuis, PH; Rutten, HJ, 1997)
"Internalization of bacteria from HIV/AIDS patients frequently resulted in partial (patients SKM1, SKM22) or complete lysis (patients SKK1-1, SKM12) of HL-60 cells."1.43Internalization property of intestinal bacteria in colon cancer and HIV/AIDS patients. ( Ciernikova, S; Majek, J; Mego, M; Stevurkova, V; Wachsmannova, L; Zajac, V, 2016)

Trial Outcomes

Number of Participants Who Had Superficial Incisional Surgical Wound Infection

Number of Participants who had superficial incisional surgical wound infection, based on CDC criteria adjudicated by an independent blinded committee (NCT00600925)
Timeframe: assessed at Postop Day 1, 2, 3, 7, 30 & 60

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Gentamicin Group61

Number of Participants Who Were Rehospitalized for Surgical Wound Infection Within 60 Days Post-operatively

The effect of the gentamicin-collagen sponge on rehospitalization for surgical wound infection. (NCT00600925)
Timeframe: Through 60 days after surgery

Number of Participants With Surgical Wound Infections From Surgery Through Post-operative Day 60

Primarily, efficacy will be evaluated by a comparison between the 2 study groups of the incidence of surgical wound infections (involving the laparotomy incision) that occur within the period from surgery through postop day 60. (NCT00600925)
Timeframe: assessed at Postop Day 1, 2, 3, 7, 30 & 60

The Effect of the Gentamicin-collagen Sponge on the ASEPSIS Score

Mean (SD) ASEPSIS Score Through 60 Days Postoperatively - brief assessment of surgical wound on post-operative Days 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 (or discharge if earlier) and then questionnaire/phone call on post-operative Days 30 and 60. Score from each time point is added up and the mean score is reported. Used to compare antibiotic regimens for their effectiveness in preventing or treating wound sepsis, well-defined criteria for outcome are needed. A method of assessing wound healing has been devised that defines carefully the characteristics to be considered and how they are to be awarded points. Objective criteria are also included in the assessment. Points are given for the need for Additional treatment, the presence of Serous discharge, Erythema, Purulent exudate, and Separation of the deep tissues, the Isolation of bacteria, and the duration of inpatient Stay (ASEPSIS). The higher the points the worse outcome. Maximum Points would be 60. Minimum points would be 0 (NCT00600925)
Timeframe: Days 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 (or discharge if earlier) and then questionnaire/phone call on post-operative Days 30 and 60.

The proportion of subjects who had deep incisional SWI, based on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) criteria adjudicated by an independent blinded committee (NCT00600925)
Timeframe: assessed at Postop Day 1, 2, 3, 7, 30 & 60

Length of Stay as an Indicator of the Hospital Economic Burden

The length of stay is an important indicator of efficiency and hospital economic burden. The reduction in number of hospitalization days results in lower risk of infection and less medication side effects and decreased need of hospital supplies. The difference in the average days of hospitalization between both groups indirectly represents the economic cost spent by the hospital. (NCT03976466)
Timeframe: Surgical procedure day to hospital discharge.
