About this study

Official title: Open-Label Exploratory, Multiple-Dose Study of Ceftobiprole to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Broncho-Alveolar Penetration in Adults With Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia

The purpose of this research study is to measure the levels of ceftobiprole in the blood, urine and tissues of the lungs during and after administration of four doses of ceftobiprole. Safety of the drug will also be evaluated.

Read the detailed description

Patients will receive a intravenous dose of ceftobiprole infused over 4 hours. Multiple blood samples will be obtained to determine the concentration of Ceftobiprole in the blood. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples will be collected to determine the concentration of ceftobiprole in the BAL fluid. The penetration of the drug into the lung will be calculated. Four 1000mg administered every 8 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ceftobiprole in people with Ventilator Associated Pneumonia, 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 7 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, 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 was stopped early (reason given: Study closed due to lack of enrollment; challenging patient population.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Pharmacokinetics (to measure the levels of ceftobiprole in the blood and urine and tissues of the lungs) during dosing and 24 hours after last dose infused (time frame: 2 days). 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.
