About this study

This study is an open-label, multiple-dose pharmacokinetic study of imipenem-relebactam conducted in 12 non-infected, obese ICU patients.

Being tested
Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam 1.25g
Medical subject headings
Obesity, Critical Illness

What participants receive

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

  • Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam 1.25gDrug

    Also called Recarbrio

    Imipenem/cilastatin/relebactam is a combination beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor antimicrobial marketed under the brand name Recarbrio and the approved dose is 1.25g Q6h in patients with normal renal function. The individual components of this agent must be administered together and cannot be separated. Therefore, this constitutes only one intervention. Each subject will receive at least 2 doses of study drug.

Study groups in NCT05146154
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Pharmacokinetic cohortExperimentalAfter at least 2 doses of study drug, serial blood samples will be collected from 12 non-infected, obese ICU patients to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of imipenem and relebactam in this population.
Receives: Drug: Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam 1.25g
Safety cohortExperimentalAfter at least 2 doses of study drug, safety will be monitored closely during study drug dosing and through 72 hours after the last dose is administered in the same 12 non-infected, obese ICU patients from the PK arm
Receives: Drug: Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam 1.25g

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetic parameters of imipenem and relebactam

    Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Pharmacokinetic parameters of imipenem and relebactam

    Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Pharmacokinetic parameters of imipenem and relebactam

    Total body clearance (CLt)

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Pharmacokinetic parameters of imipenem and relebactam

    Apparent volume of distribution (Vd)

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety of imipenem and relebactam

    Monitoring for adverse drug events

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam 1.25g in people with Obesity and Critical Illness, run by University of Illinois Chicago 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 4 inclusion and 11 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 2024. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Pharmacokinetic parameters of imipenem and relebactam (time frame: 6 months). 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?
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 27 Nov 2024.
