Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 8 to 17 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female subjects 8 to 17 years old. Children with bone maturation less than 8 years old should be enrolled with caution due to potential risk of tooth discoloration.
  • Have a diagnosis of a serious infection requiring hospitalization and administration of IV antibiotic therapy.
  • complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI) requiring significant surgical intervention or involving deeper soft tissue with the presence of at least one sign of systemic infection

Who cannot join

  • Subject with any concomitant illness/condition that, in the investigator's judgment, will substantially increase the risk associated with the subject's participation in and/or completion of the study, or could preclude the evaluation of the subject's response (e.g., life expectancy < 30 days).

About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Study To Evaluate The Safety And Efficacy Of Tigecycline Versus Comparator (Clindamycin Or Vancomycin) For The Treatment Of Complicated Skin And Skin Structure Infections, Including Those Due To MRSA, In Pediatric Subject Ages 8 To 17 Years Old

The main purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of tigecycline versus clindamycin (including subjects treated with vancomycin) in pediatric subjects (aged 8 to 17 years) with complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI), including those caused by methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

What participants receive

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

  • TigecyclineDrug

    Also called Tygacil

    50 mg IV every 12 hours up to 14 days

  • Clindamycin (or Vancomycin if needed)Drug

    For clindamycin 10mg/kg (not to exceed 900mg) IV every 8 hours up to 14 days. For vancomycin 15mg/kg (not to exceed 2g/day and adjusted as needed for renal impairment) IV every 8 hours

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical response rate at the test-of-cure visit for the 2 co-primary populations: clinically evaluable and clinically modified intent to treat populations

    Measured: 15-37 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Microbiologic response at the subject level and at the pathogen level measured at intravenous last day of therapy (IV LDOT), test-of-cure (TOC) and follow-up (FUP) visits

    Measured: 5-49 days

  2. Clinical cure rates by baseline pathogen (including MRSA) at test-of-cure (TOC) visit

    Measured: 15-37 days

  3. Clinical response and microbiological response at the subject level for subjects with monomicrobial and polymicrobial infections at test-of-cure (TOC) visit

    Measured: 15-37 days

  4. Development of decreased susceptibility

    Measured: 5-50 days

  5. Clinical response and microbial response at subject level by baseline pathogen and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values at test-of-cure (TOC) visit

    Measured: 15-37 days

  6. Susceptibility data by pathogen

    Measured: 5-50 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tigecycline and Clindamycin (or Vancomycin if needed) in people with Skin Diseases and Infection, run by Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer.

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 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jun 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 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 response rate at the test-of-cure visit for the 2 co-primary populations: clinically evaluable and clinically modified intent to treat populations (time frame: 15-37 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 7 Jun 2012.
