Study summary

This study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IV ETX2514SUL in patients with complicated urinary tract infections (cUTIs) who are otherwise relatively healthy.

Read the detailed description

This study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IV ETX2514SUL in patients with cUTIs who are otherwise relatively healthy. Patients with Acute Pyelonephritis may also be enrolled. Approximately 80 patients will be randomized to receive either 1 g ETX2514/1 g sulbactam IV or matching placebo every 6 hours (q6h). All patients will receive background therapy with 500 mg IV imipenem/cilastatin q6h.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • A signed form (ICF). If a study patient is unable to provide informed consent due to their medical condition, the patient's legally authorized representative may consent on behalf of the study patient as permitted by local law and institutional Standard Operating Procedures.
  • Male or female, 18 to 90 years of age, inclusive.
  • Expectation, in the judgment of the Investigator, that the patient's cUTI would require initial hospitalization and treatment with IV antibiotics.
  • Documented or suspected cUTI or Acute pyelonephritis (AP).

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Gross hematuria requiring intervention other than administration of study drug or removal or exchange of a urinary catheter.
  • Known non-renal source of infection such as endocarditis, osteomyelitis, abscess, meningitis, or pneumonia diagnosed within 7 days prior to randomization that would interfere with evaluation of response to the study antibiotics.
  • Patient requires continuing treatment with probenecid, methotrexate, ganciclovir, valproic acid, or divalproex sodium during the study.
  • Receipt of a single dose of a long-acting, potentially-effective systemic antibiotic with activity against Gram-negative uropathogens for more than 24 hours within the 72-hour window prior to randomization.
  • Requirement at time of randomization for any reason for additional systemic antimicrobial therapy (including antibacterial, antimycobacterial, or antifungal therapy) other than study drug, with the exception of a single oral dose of any antifungal treatment for vaginal candidiasis.
  • Likely to require the use of an antibiotic for cUTI or AP prophylaxis during the patient's participation in the study [from randomization through the Late Follow-up (LFU) Visit].
  • Any patients previously randomized in this study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

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.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Overall Success

Secondary outcomes

  1. Clinical Cure

    Proportion of patients with a response of clinical cure for the MITT(modified intent to treat), m-MITT (microbiologically modified intent to treat), CE(clinically evaluable), and ME(microbiologically evaluable) populations at the TOC(test of cure) visit.

    Time frame: Baseline to day 21
