What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ceftarolineDrug

    Also called ceftaroline for injection, ceftaroline fosamil

    Single parenteral infusion at a dose of 8 mg/kg for subjects weighing less than 75 kg or at a dose of 600 mg for subjects weighing greater than or equal to 75 kg infused over 60 minutes.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ceftaroline After Administration of Ceftaroline Fosamil at a Dose of 8 mg/kg up to a Maximum Dose of 600 mg Via IV Infusion Over 60 Minutes.

    The maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ) occurred around the time of the end of study drug infusion.

    Measured: 12 hours after infusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Adverse Events (AEs) Reported After Starting Study Drug Administration (Treatment Emergent Adverse Events, TEAEs) by Relationship to Ceftaroline (Related or Unrelated).

    A TEAE is any untoward medical occurrence a subject experiences following study drug administration.

    Subjects were monitored for TEAEs from the start of infusion of ceftaroline fosamil on Study Day 1 through the follow-up contact on Day 7.

    Measured: Signing of Informed Consent Form (ICF) to last follow up (FU) visit, study day 7 (+-2 days).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ceftaroline in people with Infection, run by Forest Laboratories at 4 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?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. 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 14 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Feb 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

The Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ceftaroline After Administration of Ceftaroline Fosamil at a Dose of 8 mg/kg up to a Maximum Dose of 600 mg Via IV Infusion Over 60 Minutes. (time frame: 12 hours after infusion). 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 14 Mar 2017.
