Study Evaluating Tigecycline in Selected Serious Infections Due to Resistant Gram-Negative Organisms

This study has been completed.

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

MedlinePlus related topics:   Bacterial Infections    Pneumonia   

Drug Information available for:   Tigecycline   

U.S. FDA Resources

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)
