Vulnerable Population
Vulnerable population not selected; participants must be able to provide consent for data collection and analysis (inclusion criterion: "Absence of exclusion criteria and able to provide consent for data collection and analysis"); no assent process or paediatric consent described.

Inclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Male (born male) ≥ 18 years of age"}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Diagnosed with acute bacterial prostatitis, defined when all the following criteria are fulfilled: a)acute presentation of voiding symptoms (irritative and/or obstructive). b)temperature of ≥ 37.8°C. c)the presence of bacteriuria or/and leukocyturia in a clean-catch midstream urine specimen without prostate massage d)the absence of data suggestive of pyelonephritis (costovertebral angle tenderness)."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Receive appropriate empirical intravenous antibiotics for ≥24 - ≤96 h."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Isolation of enterobacterales microorganism in urine culture > 1000 CFU/ml or blood culture sensitive to at least two of the following drugs (ciprofloxacin, or fosfomycin, or cefixime). Susceptibility of enterobacterales will be assessed according “EUCAST Clinical Breakpoint Tables v. 14.0, valid from 2024-01-01” for Enterobacterales, taking into account that for cefixime will be used the criteria established for uncomplicated urinary tract infection (UTI), and that for Enterobacterales other than E. coli, they are not considered sensitive to fosfomycin, so they cannot be randomized to this arm."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Be able to understand and comply with protocol requirements, instructions, and restrictions."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Be likely to complete the study as planned."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Be considered appropriate candidates for participation in a clinical trial with oral medication (e.g., no active substance abuse, acute major organ disease, or planned long-term work assignments out of the country, etc.)."}

Exclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Allergy to ciprofloxacin, fosfomycin or cefixime"}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Chronic undwelling urinary catheter"}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Fever presenting within 24 h of urinary tract manipulation"}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Cases suggestive of chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP) defined as (i) bacterial prostatitis of long duration (symptoms lasting more than 4 weeks) or (ii) two or more episodes of acute prostatitis caused by the same organism during the last 12 months."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Presence of prostatic abscess"}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Presence of metastatic infectious foci."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Isolation of enterobacterales microorganism in urine culture or blood culture resistant at two or more of the following drugs (ciprofloxacin, or fosfomycin, or cefixime)"}

  • {"criterion_text":"- Creatinine clearance < 10 ml /min or estimated glomerular filtration rate < 10 ml/min/1.73m2"}
