About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Prospective, Open-label Clinical Study on the Treatment of Carbapenem Resistant Gram-negative Bacterial Lung Infection With Sodium Polycolistin E Mesylate Intravenically Combined With Atomization

Pulmonary infection is a kind of infectious disease that seriously damages human health. It usually starts quickly and progresses rapidly in clinical manifestations, and is often accompanied by upper respiratory tract infection symptoms. With the increasing use of broad-spectrum antibiotics in clinical practice, the failure of anti-infection caused by drug-resistant bacteria is more and more common. Once a patient develops carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CRO) infection, there are limited drug options. Therefore, HAP, as a serious and common complication, has a high incidence and mortality for ICU patients. In this study, patients who met the diagnostic criteria for pulmonary infection caused by CRO that was clearly or strongly suspected to be resistant to carbapenems but sensitive to CMS were selected, and the combined treatment regimen of CMS intravenous atomization was adopted. To explore the therapeutic effect of CMS combined with intravenous atomization in patients with carbapenem resistant gram-negative bacteria in lung infection. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination regimen in patients with pulmonary infections caused by CRO. The purpose of this study was to explore the efficacy and safety of CMS combined with intravenous atomization in the treatment of patients with CRO induced pulmonary infection, and to provide a basis for its clinical rational application.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical effective rate

    Clinical effective rate = (number of effective cases/total number of treated cases) × 100% Effective cases are those that include complete response (disappearance of symptoms), partial response (significant improvement in symptoms), or those that meet specific efficacy criteria.

    Inactive cases are patients whose symptoms do not improve or worsen.

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 14 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Microbial clearance

    The microbial clearance rate can be calculated by calculating the change in the number of microorganisms before and after disinfection. Specifically, the number of microorganisms before disinfection minus the number of microorganisms after disinfection, divided by the number of microorganisms before disinfection, to obtain the proportion of microbial reduction.

    Measured: 14-day treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Intravenously atomized polycolistin E sodium mesylate in people with Lung Infection Bacterial, run by First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University at 1 site in China.

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 9 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Apr 2025. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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 effective rate (time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 14 days). 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 2 Apr 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
