Summary

The primary objective is: to assess the microbiological success of the combination of levofloxacin and rifampicin, administered for 32 to 37 days, as oral replacement therapy of an empirical antibiotic therapy of a maximum of 5 to 10 days given intravenously, in the treatment of OsteoArticular Prosthetic Infections (OAPI), with a two-stage revision of the prosthesis.

The secondary endpoints are:

* To assess the rate of clinical failure 12 months after the reimplantation of the prosthesis.
* To assess the joint mobility function score 12 months after the reimplantation of the prosthesis.
* To assess the safety of the combination of levofloxacin and rifampicin.
* To investigate prognostic factors for success after the end of treatment and at 12 months after the reimplantation of the prosthesis.
