Effect of Fluoroquinolones on BK Viremia in the Renal Transplant Recipient, A Multi-Center Study
Abstract
Our hypothesis is that 30 days of oral levofloxacin (FDA approved antibiotic) in patients with persistent viremia (BK virus found in blood) will impair progress to BK virus induced kidney damage by significantly decreasing or eliminating BK virus in the blood.
Conditions: BK Viremia.
Primary outcome: Percent Change From Baseline in BK Virus Copies at 3 Months.
Enrollment: 43 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 43 participants or records.
