First Received: March 19, 2004 Last Updated: October 9, 2007 History of Changes

Sponsored by:	Wyeth
Information provided by:	Wyeth
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00079989

Purpose

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of tigecycline in the treatment of subjects with selected serious infections caused by resistant gram-negative bacteria, eg, Acinetobacter baumannii, Enterobacter species, Klebsiella pneumoniae or other resistant gram-negative pathogens, for whom antibiotics have failed or who cannot tolerate other appropriate antimicrobial therapies. The primary efficacy endpoint will be the clinical response.

Condition	Intervention	Phase
Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections	Drug: tigecycline	Phase III

Study Type:	Interventional
Study Design:	Treatment, Open Label, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title:	A Phase 3, Open-Label, Noncomparative Study of Tigecycline for the Treatment of Subjects With Selected Serious Infections Due to Resistant Gram-Negative Organisms Such as Enterobacter Species, Acinetobacter Baumannii, and Klebsiella Pneumoniae

Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:	18 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:	Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:	No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Male or female subjects aged 18 years or older
Isolation of a resistant gram-negative pathogen, eg, Enterobacter species, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, or other resistant gram-negative pathogens, alone or as 1 isolate of a polymicrobial infection
Resistant gram-negative organisms are defined by the likely presence of ESBL or related mechanisms which limit the therapeutic alternatives for the treatment of complicated infections

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects with any concomitant condition or taking any concomitant medication that, in the opinion of the investigator, could preclude an evaluation of a response or make it unlikely that the contemplated course of therapy or follow-up assessment will be completed or that will substantially increase the risk associated with the subject's participation in this study
Anticipated length of antibiotic therapy < 7 days
Known or suspected hypersensitivity to tigecycline or other compounds related to this class of antibacterial agents (eg, tetracyclines, minocycline, doxycycline)
