Ceftobiprole in the Treatment of Patients With Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections

Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections Clinical Trial

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Multicenter Study to Establish the Safety and Efficacy of Ceftobiprole Medocaril Compared With Vancomycin Plus Aztreonam in the Treatment of Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This was a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study in adult hospitalized patients to establish the safety and efficacy of ceftobiprole medocaril compared with vancomycin plus aztreonam in the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSIs).

Clinical Trial Description

This was a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study in adult hospitalized patients with ABSSSIs. Randomization was stratified by study site and type of ABSSSI (with major cutaneous abscess comprising ≤ 30% of the Intent-to-Treat [ITT] population). Primary endpoint for FDA: Early clinical response based on the percent reduction in lesion size at 48-72 hours compared to baseline in patients who did not receive rescue therapy and were alive, in the ITT population. Primary endpoint for EMA: Investigator-assessed clinical success at the test-of-cure (TOC) visit 15-22 days after randomization, in the co-primary ITT and Clinically Evaluable (CE) populations. ;
