About this study

Official title: A Multi-centre, Non-inferiority, Randomized, Double-blind, Phase IV Study Comparing Pristinamycin (2g x 2 Per Day for 2 Days Then 1g x 3 Per Day for 5 to 7 Days) to Amoxicillin (1g x 3 Per Day) for 7 to 9 Days in Adults With Acute Community Acquired Pneumonia With a PORT Score of II or III

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the clinical efficacy of pristinamycin at a dose of 2g x 2/day for 2 days then 1g x 3/day for 5 to 7 days versus amoxicillin 1g x3 /day for 7 to 9 days, 5 to 9 days after the end of treatment.

Secondary Objectives:

To evaluate the clinical efficacy in a subpopulation bacteriologically documented at inclusion and according to procalcitonin level.

To evaluate the efficacy of treatments against pneumococcus. To evaluate the rate of relapse and mortality 30±2 days after treatment is started.

To document failures. To collect and follow up adverse events.

Read the detailed description

The total study duration for each patient is 1 month with a treatment period of 7 to 9 days and a follow-up period of 21 to 23 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing PRISTINAMYCIN XRP7263 and Amoxicillin in people with Pneumonia, run by Sanofi at 19 sites in 2 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 11 inclusion and 12 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 8 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in France, Tunisia. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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: The sponsor stopped the study due to low recruitment with no safety concerns). 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?

Percentage of patients cured established from the clinical course and pulmonary radiological course (time frame: 5 to 9 days post-treatment). 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 8 May 2023.
