The primary object is to compare the early clinical efficacy (after 48-72 hours of therapy) of dalbavancin to the comparator regimen (vancomycin with the option to switch to oral linezolid) for the treatment of patients with a suspected or proven gram-positive bacterial skin or skin structure infection.

Being tested
Dalbavancin, Vancomycin / Linezolid
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • DalbavancinDrug

    IV Dalbavancin 1000 mg on Day 1 and 500 mg on Day 8

  • Vancomycin / LinezolidDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. Early Clinical Efficacy

    Clinical response at 48-72 hours post study drug initiation, based on measurements of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) lesion size and temperature

    Measured: 48-72 hours after the initiation of study therapy

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. >= 20% Reduction in Lesion Area

    Clinical response at 48-72 hours post study drug initiation, based on measurements of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) lesion size

    Measured: 48-72 hours after the initiation of study therapy

  2. Clinical Status

    Compare the clinical efficacy at end of treatment visit of dalbavancin to the comparator regimen based on lesion size, local signs, temperature and receipt of non-study antibiotics

    Measured: End of Treatment Visit (Day 14-15)

  3. Clinical Status

    Compare the clinical efficacy at the day 28 follow-up visit of dalbavancin to the comparator regimen based on lesion size, local signs, temperature and receipt of non-study antibiotics

    Measured: Follow-Up Visit (day 28)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Dalbavancin and Vancomycin / Linezolid in people with Abscess and Wound Infection, run by Durata Therapeutics Inc., an affiliate of Allergan plc at 91 sites in 8 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 28 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 31 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 91 sites in United States, Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Poland and 3 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Dec 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?

Early Clinical Efficacy (time frame: 48-72 hours after the initiation of study therapy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01339091, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 31 Jan 2014.
