Trial summary

The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether LYS228 can be developed for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections. It was planned that LYS228 exposure across patients with varying renal function would be evaluated during the study to confirm that LYS228 concentrations are predicted to be adequate to… Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male and female patients 18 to 85 years of age with visual confirmation (presence of pus within the abdominal cavity) of an intra-abdominal infection associated with peritonitis including at least one inclusionary diagnosis during surgical intervention.

Who cannot join

  • Any of the excluded diagnoses: abdominal wall abscess, small bowel obstruction, traumatic bowel perforation undergoing surgery within 12 hours, perforation of gastroduodenal ulcer with surgery within 24 hours, an intra-abdominal process that is not likely caused by infection.
  • Pre-operative treatment of any duration with non-study Drug systemic antibiotic therapy for peritonitis or abscess is not allowed unless certain criteria are met.
  • Concomitant bacterial infection at time of enrollment requiring non-Study Drug antibiotics and that may interfere with the evaluation of clinical response to the study antibiotic.
  • Known non-abdominal source of infection, including endocarditis, osteomyelitis, abscess, meningitis, or pneumonia diagnosed within 7 days prior to enrollment.
  • Patient has an Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score > 30 or is considered, in the judgement of the investigator, unlikely to survive 4 weeks (e.g. rapidly progressive terminal illness, including septic shock).
  • Patients that meet sepsis criteria as defined by the quick sequential sepsis-related organ failure assessment (qSOFA).
  • Women of child-bearing potential unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception during dosing and for 7 days after stopping study treatment.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Controlled, Evaluator-blinded, Multi-center Study to Evaluate LYS228 Pharmacokinetics, Clinical Response, Safety, and Tolerability in Patients With Complicated Intra-abdominal Infection

The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether LYS228 can be developed for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections.

It was planned that LYS228 exposure across patients with varying renal function would be evaluated during the study to confirm that LYS228 concentrations are predicted to be adequate to treat the patient population. It was planned that the PK exposure of the initial 8 patients would be analyzed.

PK analysis was not conducted as per protocol the first analysis required 8 patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical Success at Day 28

    Clinical success is defined as resolution, or substantial improvement (i.e. reduction of severity of all baseline signs and symptoms and worsening of none) of all or most baseline signs and symptoms of cIAI infection without the need for additional antibiotic therapy other than any oral antibiotics given to complete treatment at home following discontinuation of Study Drug and no drainage or surgical reintervention required 96 hours after the start of Study Drug.

    Measured: Day 28

  2. Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) of LYS228: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to the End of the Dosing Interval Tau (AUCtau)

    Calculated based on LYS228 concentration in blood at different time points following drug administration on Day 5

    Measured: Day 5

  3. Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) of LYS228: The Observed Maximum Plasma Concentration Following Drug Administration (Cmax)

    Calculated based on LYS228 concentration in blood at different time points following drug administration on Day 5

    Measured: Day 5

  4. Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) of LYS228: The Time to Reach the Maximum Concentration After Drug Administration (Tmax)

    Calculated based on LYS228 concentration in blood at different time points following drug administration on Day 5

    Measured: Day 5

  5. Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) of LYS228: The Systemic (or Total Body) Clearance From Plasma Following Intravenous Administration (CL)

    Calculated based on LYS228 concentration in blood at different time points following drug administration on Day 5

    Measured: Day 5

  6. Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) of LYS228: The Volume of Distribution at Steady State Following Intravenous Administration (Vss)

    Calculated based on LYS228 concentration in blood at different time points following drug administration on Day 5

    Measured: Day 5

  7. Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) of LYS228: The Terminal Elimination Half-life (T1/2)

    Calculated based on LYS228 concentration in blood at different time points following drug administration on Day 5

    Measured: Day 5

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Patients With Adverse Events

    Number of patients with at least one Adverse Event

    Measured: Daily

  2. Microbiological Response at Day 28

    Microbiologic success at 28 days after randomization determined by microbial growth in culture from the intra-abdominal focus of infection when available or presumed eradication based on clinical success

    Measured: Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LYS228 in people with Intra-abdominal Infections, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals 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 1 inclusion and 7 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 11 Oct 2021. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 8 Oct 2019). 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?

Clinical Success at Day 28 (time frame: Day 28). The study lists 7 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 NCT03354754, 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 11 Oct 2021.
