About this study

Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 5 (CKD5) patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis are at an increased risk for developing bloodstream infections. Vancomycin is traditionally used as first-line therapy for treating these infections, but the emergence of less-susceptible bacterial strains necessitates the consideration of alternative antibiotic therapy. Telavancin is a new antibiotic that has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against gram-positive bacteria, including vancomycin-intermediate staphylococcus aureus. While dosing recommendations for telavancin are available for patients with normal kidney function, there are no published recommendations for CKD5 patients receiving hemodialysis. A pharmacokinetic study is needed to characterize the pharmacokinetic parameters of telavancin in these patients to determine the extent of drug removal by hemodialysis and to establish dosing recommendations for CKD5 patients on maintenance hemodialysis.

What participants receive

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

  • TelavancinDrug

    Also called Vibativ

    A single 5 mg/kg dose of telavancin is administered intravenously (IV).

  • Pharmacokinetic Blood SamplingProcedure or surgery

    Also called PK Sampling

    Blood samples are collected to assess telavancin plasma concentrations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax of Telavancin

    Peak concentration of telavancin

    Measured: At hours post dose: 0, 1, 1.5, 3, 6.5, 8, 24, 48

  2. Vss of Telavancin

    Volume of distribution of telavancin at steady state

    Measured: At hours post dose: 0, 1, 1.5, 3, 6.5, 8, 24, 48

  3. CLobs of Telavancin

    Observed clearance of telavancin

    Measured: At hours post dose: 0, 1, 1.5, 3, 6.5, 8, 24, 48

  4. t1/2 of Telavancin

    Half-life of telavancin

    Measured: At hours post dose: 0, 1, 1.5, 3, 6.5, 8, 24, 48

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. AUC0-24 of Telavancin

    Area under the telavancin concentration-time curve 0-24 hours from start of infusion

    Measured: At hours post dose: 0, 1, 1.5, 3, 6.5, 8, 24, 48

  2. AUC24-48 of Telavancin

    Area under the telavancin concentration-time curve 24-48 hours from start of infusion

    Measured: At hours post dose: 0, 1, 1.5, 3, 6.5, 8, 24, 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Telavancin and Pharmacokinetic Blood Sampling in people with End-Stage Renal Disease and Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease, run by University of Michigan at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 13 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 4 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Mar 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?

Cmax of Telavancin (time frame: At hours post dose: 0, 1, 1.5, 3, 6.5, 8, 24, 48). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02392208, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 4 Apr 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
