What participants receive

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

  • Sulbactam Sodium/Ampicillin SodiumDrug

    Also called UNASYN-S

    Intravenous use; The usual adult dosage is 6 g of sulbactam sodium and ampicillin sodium (potency) per day given in two divided doses via intravenous injection or drip infusion. In the case of severe infection, the dosage may be increased if appropriate. Maximum dosage should not exceed 3 g (potency) 4 times daily (daily dose of 12 g (potency)).

    Kit for intravenous use; The usual adult dosage is 6 g of sulbactam sodium and ampicillin sodium (potency) per day given in two divided doses via intravenous injection after dissolved in an accompanying reconstitution diluent. In the case of severe infection, the dosage may be increased if appropriate. Maximum dosage should not exceed 3 g (potency) 4 times daily (daily dose of 12 g (potency)).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events

    A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium in a participant who received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium. Relatedness to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was assessed by the investigator.

    Measured: 14 Days

  2. Clinical Effectiveness Rate by Indication

    Clinical effectiveness rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved clinical effectiveness over the total number of participants with assessable effectiveness evaluation, was presented by each indication (pneumonia, lung abcess and peritorinitis) along with the corresponding exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval. Overall effectiveness of sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was determined by the investigator based on clinical symptoms and examinations at the end of high-dose (>6 g daily) treatment. Clinical effectiveness was assessed according to the following categories: (1) effective, (2) ineffective, or (3) unassessable at the end of treatment.

    Measured: 14 Days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Serious Adverse Events

    A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium in a participant who received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium. A treatment-related serious adverse event was a treatment-related adverse event resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; lifethreatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was assessed by the investigator.

    Measured: 14 Days

  2. Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events Unexpected From Japanese Package Insert

    A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium in a participant who received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium. Expectedness of the adverse event was determined according to Japanese package insert. Relatedness to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was assessed by the investigator.

    Measured: 14 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pneumonia and Lung Abscess, run by 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 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Apr 2017. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Apr 2017). 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?

Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events (time frame: 14 Days). 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 26 Apr 2017.
