About this study

Official title: A Post-Marketing Surveillance Study on the Safety and Effectiveness of Doripenem Among Filipino Patients With Nosocomial Pneumonia, Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infections and Complicated Urinary Tract Infections

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of doripenem treatment among Filipino patients with nosocomial pneumonia, complicated intra-abdominal infections, and complicated urinary tract infection.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label study (all people know the identity of the treatment assigned), multi-center (conducted at multiple sites), and observational (study in which the investigators/physicians observe the patients and measure their outcomes) study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of doripenem for the treatment of nosocomial pneumonia, complicated intra-abdominal infections and complicated urinary tract infection among Filipino patients. Safety evaluations for adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, physical examination, and concomitant medications will be monitored throughout the study. The total duration of study for each patient will be approximately for 3 years.

What participants receive

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

  • No interventionDrug

    Also called DORIBAX

    This is an observational study. Doripenem will be administered as per the recommended dose, ie, 500 mg, intravenously (ie, in the vein), for every 8 hours. Duration of treatment with doripenem: for nosocomial pneumonia including ventilator-associated pneumonia patients: 7 to 14 days; for complicated intra-abdominal infection patients: 5 to 14 days; for complicated urinary tract infection, including pyelonephritis (bacterial infection of the kidneys) patients: 10 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with incidence of adverse events

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study medication

  2. Number of patients with incidence of discontinuation of study medication due to adverse events

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study medication

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of patients with nosocomial pneumonia (including ventilator-associated pneumonia patients) who achieved clinical cure at test-of-cure visit

    Clinical cure will be defined as resolution of all signs and symptoms or improvement or lack of progression of all abnormalities to such extent that no further antimicrobial therapy is necessary. Clinical failure will be defined as persistence or worsening signs and symptoms or emergence of new signs and symptoms of new infection and will need antimicrobial treatment aside from the study medication.

    Measured: Up to 7 days

  2. Number of patients with complicated urinary tract infection who achieved clinical cure at test-of-cure visit

    Clinical cure will be defined as resolution of all signs and symptoms or improvement or lack of progression of all abnormalities to such extent that no further antimicrobial therapy is necessary. Clinical failure will be defined as persistence or worsening signs and symptoms or emergence of new signs and symptoms of new infection and will need antimicrobial treatment aside from the study medication.

    Measured: Up to 7 days

  3. Number of patients with complicated intra-abdominal infections who achieved clinical cure at test-of-cure visit

    Clinical cure will be defined as resolution of all signs and symptoms or improvement or lack of progression of all abnormalities to such extent that no further antimicrobial therapy is necessary. Clinical failure will be defined as persistence or worsening signs and symptoms or emergence of new signs and symptoms of new infection and will need antimicrobial treatment aside from the study medication.

    Measured: Up to 21 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pneumonia, Bacterial and Nosocomial Infection, run by Janssen Pharmaceutica at 4 sites in Philippines.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 9 Aug 2013. 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 Philippines. 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.

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?

Number of patients with incidence of adverse events (time frame: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study medication). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Aug 2013.
