Study summary

To assess the efficacy, safety and Population Pharmacokinetic (PPK) of morinidazole and sodium chloride injection with levofloxacin hydrochloride and sodium chloride injection sequential of levofloxacin hydrochloride tablets in women with pelvic inflammatory disease: An Open-Lable Multicenter Prospective Non-Randomized Trial

Read the detailed description

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a spectrum of upper genital tract inflammations comprising endometritis, salpingitis, parametritis, oophoritis, tubo-ovarian abscess and/or pelvic peritonitis. The objectives of administering antimicrobial therapy in patients with PID are to control the symptoms and to prevent the late sequelae of the disease. Because anaerobe infections (e.g., Bacteroides fragilis infections) are associated with tubal and epithelial damage, anaerobic coverage is routinely recommended in women with pelvic infection. Guidelines have been developed in both the USA and Europe with regard to PID management. Metronidazole, a member of the nitroimidazole drug class, is included in the regimens recommended for improving anaerobic bacteria coverage. The sideeffects of metronidazole include a metallic taste, nausea, transient neutropenia, and peripheral neuropathy. Antimicrobial resistance to metronidazole has emerged after several decades of worldwide use of the drug. Morinidazole, a National Class I Antimicrobial, is a new type of third-generation nitroimidazole antimicrobial that is used for treating amoebiasis, trichomoniasis, and anaerobic bacterial infections, and which exhibits greater activity and less toxicity than metronidazole.

Morinidazole and Sodium Chloride Injection used in PID or appendicitis cases had been approved by CFDA in 2014. This phase 4 study is to assess the efficacy, safety and Population Pharmacokinetic (PPK) of morinidazole in PID.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(9)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Child-Pugh class

A score of how well the liver works in people with liver disease such as cirrhosis: class A is mild, B moderate and C severe.

QT and QTc

On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.

The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 5, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
