Conditions
Summary
Staphylococcal osteoarticular infections (OAIs), including prosthetic joint infections and chronic osteomyelitis, represent a major cause of morbidity. Rifampicin is a key bactericidal antibiotic effective against staphylococcal biofilm. However, its pharmacokinetics exhibit substantial inter-individual variability due to complex hepatic metabolism and drug interactions. Currently, no prospective population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model of rifampicin combined with levofloxacin or ciprofloxacin exists in patients with OAIs. Objectives: The primary objective of this study is to develop a population pharmacokinetic model of oral rifampicin in patients undergoing medico-surgical treatment for staphylococcal osteoarticular infections. Secondary objectives include evaluating the pharmacokinetics of the partner antibiotic (levofloxacin or ciprofloxacin), investigating the correlation between antibiotic exposure metrics (AUC, Cmax, AUC/MIC) and clinical/biological tolerance, and assessing 1-year infection relapse-free survival and resistance emergence. Study Design: Prospective, single-center, interventional study with minimal risks and constraints (RIPH 2) involving 40 participants recruited at the Reference Center for Complex Osteoarticular Infections (CRIOAC).

Interventions
This study primarily aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of rifampicin, but also of one of the two partner antibiotics, levofloxacin or ciprofloxacin, used in the treatment of staphylococcal osteoarticular infections, whether or not they are present in the body. To this end, 12 blood samples, totaling 60 ml per patient, will be required. These samples will be collected specifically for this clinical research. The remainder of the study will be conducted as part of standard patient care.
