The present study was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study of doxycycline for treatment of patients with acute bacterial sinusitis (AS). The main objective of the study was to determine whether treatment with doxycycline was superior to placebo in the eradication of AS in patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis. Twenty patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis were randomized to receive doxycycline 100 mg/kg twice a day for 4 weeks. A total of 10 weeks of treatment were required to complete the study.
ASBacterial sinusitisBSA
The first reported human-associated antibacterial drug of bacterial infection is doxycycline. It is the active metabolite of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin, which has antibacterial activity against most gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae [1]. The most common adverse events associated with doxycycline include diarrhea, nausea, and anorexia, and the most common side effects are gastrointestinal and respiratory symptoms [2].
Because of its high antibacterial activity, doxycycline is frequently prescribed for patients with bacterial sinusitis. The use of this drug is generally contraindicated in patients who have a history of anaphylaxis, hypersensitivity, or a history of allergy [3,4]. The safety of doxycycline for the treatment of sinusitis has not been established in patients with a known or suspected bacterial sinusitis or other underlying diseases [3]. However, the safety of doxycycline for the treatment of AS in patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis is still unclear.
The present study was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study of doxycycline for the eradication of AS in patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis.
The study was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, double-dummy, double-dummy, randomized, multicenter study conducted at the Department of General Surgery of the National Taiwan University College of Medicine (NCT04752403), in which patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis and AS were randomized to receive 200 mg doxycycline twice a day for 4 weeks. The patients were assessed for efficacy, safety, and tolerability with the use of doxycycline at baseline.
The mean duration of treatment with doxycycline was 5.1 weeks with the control group (n=22), and it was significantly superior to placebo in the eradication of AS in patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis (n=22; difference=7.5 days; p<0.001).
The mean duration of treatment with doxycycline was 5.3 weeks with the control group (n=22), and it was significantly superior to placebo in the eradication of AS in patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis (n=22; difference=2.8 days; p=0.001).
The mean duration of treatment with doxycycline was 2.6 weeks with the control group (n=22), and it was significantly superior to placebo in the eradication of AS in patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis (n=22; difference=7.3 days; p<0.001).
This study demonstrated that treatment with doxycycline was superior to placebo in eradication of AS in patients with presumed or confirmed bacterial sinusitis.
In the treatment of acute bacterial sinusitis, doxycycline is commonly used to treat anaerobic bacterial infections, such as respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, and sexually transmitted infections [1]. Although the use of doxycycline is well-established, no single drug is superior to placebo in the eradication of anaerobic bacterial infection. Doxycycline has been extensively studied, with a high efficacy against Gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, and an acceptable safety profile, with good tolerability [2].
