About this study

Official title: Phase 3, Randomized, Investigator-Blind, Multi-Center Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Iclaprim Versus Linezolid in Complicated Skin and Skin Structure Infections.(ASSIST-1)

This is a multi-center, investigator-blind, comparative Phase 3 study. Patients will receive either iclaprim or linezolid for 10 to 14 days. Patients will be evaluated daily for the first four days of study treatment and then every other day, for up to 14 days of the treatment period, at End of Therapy, the Test Of Cure visit (7 to 14 days post treatment), and a Late Follow-up (F/U) visit (7 to 14 days after the TOC visit).

Read the detailed description

Primary Objective:

The primary objective of this study is to compare the clinical cure rates of iclaprim and linezolid at the test of cure (TOC) visit (7 to 14 days after the end of treatment).

Secondary Objectives:

The secondary objectives of this study are to compare iclaprim with linezolid regarding:

  • Clinical efficacy at the end of study medication treatment;
  • Time to resolution of systemic and local signs and symptoms of complicated skin and skin structure infection (cSSSI);
  • Clinical outcome in the microbiologically evaluable (ME) population;
  • Bacteriologic outcome in the ME population;
  • Bacteriologic eradication rates of Baseline (BL) pathogens;
  • Clinical outcome in the modified intent-to-treat (MITT) population;
  • Bacteriologic outcome in the MITT population;
  • Baseline in vitro susceptibility of isolated pathogens in the ME population; and
  • Safety and tolerability of iclaprim treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Clinical cure rate (the ratio of number of clinically cured patients to the total number of patients in the population) at 7 to 14 days after the end of therapy

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Microbiological eradication rate at 7-14 days after end of therapy.

  2. Safety evaluations conducted during the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing intravenous iclaprim or intravenous linezolid in people with Complicated Skin and Skin Structure Infection, run by Arpida AG at 5 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Apr 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical cure rate (the ratio of number of clinically cured patients to the total number of patients in the population) at 7 to 14 days after the end of therapy. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Apr 2008.
