Ventriculitis, Infectious

This Phase IIb study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BV100 in combination with low dose polymyxin B plus ceftazidime/avibactam or cefiderocol in patients with suspected or confirmed CRABC infections. The study is divided into two parts (Part A and Part B), recruiting in parallel. Approximately 10 subjects will be recruited in Part B, with enrollment ending once Part A enrollment is complete (at least 30 patients randomized to all of the three groups). Eligible patients, who have given informed consent, will be enrolled, and pre-treatment microbiology samples submitted to a local laboratory.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of non-antibiotic-based supplemental interventions in the management of ventriculitis among pediatric patients. The study objective is to detect the efficacy of probiotics and zinc when taken simultaneously with antibiotic treatment as immunomodulatory in increasing the recovery rate in pediatric population affected with ventriculitis.
