About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-label, PK and Safety Study to Evaluate the Relative Exposure and Safety of a New Formulation vs the Approved Formulation of a Single 1200 mg IV Dose of ORBACTIV® (Oritavancin) in Subjects Being Treated for ABSSSI

This study is being conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety of Kimyrsa versus the approved oritavancin formulation in subjects with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infection (ABSSSI). Kimyrsa adjusts the infusion time, concentration and reconstitution/administration solutions of a single 1200 mg intravenous (IV) infusion of oritavancin

Read the detailed description

Single IV dose oritavancin (1200 mg) has been approved in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with ABSSSI caused or suspected to be caused by Gram-positive microorganisms. The current study is being conducted to evaluate the relative exposure, PK and safety of a new formulation of oritavancin, Kimyrsa, by adjusting infusion time, concentration and reconstitution/administration solutions of a single 1200 mg IV infusion of oritavancin in adult subjects with ABSSSI.

Fifty (50) subjects will be administered the currently approved formulation of oritavancin, using the approved dosing regimen in which Sterile Water for Injection (SWFI) is the reconstituting agent and Dextrose 5% in Water (D5W) is used for further dilution to a total volume of 1000 mL. This formulation will be infused per the approved label over 3 hours. An additional 50 subjects will be administered Kimyrsa which contains hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD). This formulation will be reconstituted with SWFI and further diluted in 0.9% sodium chloride (saline) to a total volume of 250 mL. This formulation will be infused over 60 minutes.

Being tested
Current Formulation of Oritavancin, Kimyrsa

What is being measured

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

  1. Relative Exposure of AUC of the New Formulation to the Approved Formulation

    Relative exposure of AUC of the new formulation to the approved formulation of oritavancin based on area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 72 hr (AUC0-72)

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Relative Exposure of AUC of the New Formulation to the Approved Formulation

    Relative exposure of AUC of the new formulation to the approved formulation of oritavancin based on area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 168 hr (AUC0-168).

    Measured: 168 hours (Day 8)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Subjects With at Least One Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)

    Number of subjects with at least one treatment emergent adverse event (TEAE)

    Measured: 336 hours (Day 15)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Current Formulation of Oritavancin and Kimyrsa in people with Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infection, run by Melinta Therapeutics, Inc. at 4 sites 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 6 inclusion and 23 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 13 Apr 2021. 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 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 13 Apr 2021). 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?

Relative Exposure of AUC of the New Formulation to the Approved Formulation (time frame: 72 hours). 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 13 Apr 2021.
