IL-10 Stratifying Tool for Towards Antibiotic Selection for MRSaB

United States40 participantsStarted 2015-11

Plain-language summary

Patients with MRSaB have high therapeutic failure rates and mortality rates. Recent studies have shown that an elevated IL-10 level is an independent risk factor of mortality. It may also serve as biomarker for very early risk stratification. The aim of this study is to compare the outcomes for patients with elevated IL-10 levels (≥8 pg/ml) when treated with standard antibiotic therapy (daptomycin or vancomycin) versus early aggressive therapy (daptomycin with ceftaroline) for the treatment of MRSaB.
