About this study

Official title: Open-Label, Pharmacokinetic Study of the Penetration of Ceftobiprole Into Bone

This study is being performed to measure the amount of the antibiotic ceftobiprole (study drug) found in the bone and blood after receiving one dose prior to your elective hip replacement surgery. A piece of your hip bone which will be removed as part of your surgery will be analyzed to determine how much ceftobiprole gets into the bone.

Read the detailed description

About 20 patients will take part in the study. Two patients will not receive ceftobiprole, but will receive an antibiotic that is normally given prior to elective hip replacement surgery. The remaining 18 patients will receive ceftobiprole 500 mg dripped into the vein over 2 hours. All patients will have a sample of bone taken during the surgery and blood samples taken at specific timepoints. The samples taken from the 2 patients who did not receive study drug will assist in the development of a test used to measure the study drug in the bone sample. This is an open-label, parallel group, pharmacokinetic study in healthy men and women who have been cleared medically for elective total hip replacement surgery. Healthy is defined as patients who are medically stable and cleared for elective surgery. The study has 4 phases: a screening phase of up to 21 days before the day of surgery; a pretreatment phase of up to 7 days before the day of surgery; a 1-day open-label treatment phase; an end-of-study phase (end-of-study procedures or at the time of early withdrawal); and a follow-up telephone contact approximately 1 week after the surgery to assess new and ongoing adverse events. Two control subjects will be enrolled; these patients will not receive ceftobiprole, but will undergo surgery and a bone sample, which will serve as a control for qualifying the bioanalytical assay. The remaining 36 patients will be randomized to 1 of 2 ceftobiprole treatments. The primary objective is to estimate the penetration of ceftobiprole into bone of otherwise healthy patients who are undergoing total hip replacement surgery. Safety and tolerability will also be assessed. Venous blood samples will be collected and analyzed for ceftobiprole concentrations using validated liquid-chromatography methodology, with tandem mass spectrometric detection. Bone samples will be analyzed for ceftobiprole by qualified liquid-chromatography methodology, with tandem mass spectrometric detection. Safety and tolerability will be evaluated throughout the study. Blood will be drawn for clinical laboratory tests and PK evaluations. A single dose of ceftobiprole 500 mg dripped into the vein over 2 hours, administered prior to elective hip replacement surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ceftobiprole in people with Total Hip Replacement Surgery, run by Basilea Pharmaceutica.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 30 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

The primary objective is to estimate the penetration of ceftobiprole into bone in otherwise healthy patients who are undergoing total hip replacement surgery. (time frame: 1 week). 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 30 Jul 2012.
