Infection Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter Study to Establish the Safety and Tolerability of Doripenem Compared With Meropenem in Hospitalized Children With Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infections
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of doripenem compared with meropenem in children hospitalized with complicated intra-abdominal infections.

Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria: - Patients who are eligible for the study must have clinical evidence of cIAI - Require surgical intervention (eg, laparotomy, laparoscopic surgery, or percutaneous drainage) to manage the cIAI - Require antibacterial therapy for 5 to 14 days in addition to the surgical intervention - Must, based on the judgment of the investigator, require hospitalization initially and antibacterial therapy for 5 to 14 days in addition to surgical intervention for the treatment of the current cIAI. (Note that the patient must require at least 3 days of IV antibiotic therapy initially) - Have a signed informed consent form completed by the patient's parent or legal representative (and a signed assent form obtained from patients who are capable of providing assent, typically, children 7 years of age and older) Exclusion Criteria: - Have a history of hypersensitivity reactions to carbapenems, cephalosporins, penicillins, or other beta-lactam antibiotics - concomitant infection including but not limited to suspected or confirmed meningitis or central nervous system infection requiring systemic antibiotic or antifungal therapy in addition to the iv study drug therapy at the time of randomization - Receipt of nonstudy systemic antibiotic therapy for cIAI for more than 24 hours immediately preceding the start of the infusion of the first dose of iv study drug therapy - Have a diagnosis of abdominal wall abscess confined to musculature of the abdominal wall, small bowel obstruction or ischemic bowel disease without perforation, traumatic bowel perforation requiring surgery within 12 hours of perforation, or perforation of gastroduodenal ulcers requiring surgery within 24 hours of perforation (these are considered situations of peritoneal soiling before the infection has become established) - Have simple (noncomplicated), nonperforated appendicitis or gangrenous appendicitis without rupture into the peritoneal cavity identified during a surgical procedure OR presence of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis or peritonitis associated with cirrhosis or chronic ascites - Known at the time of randomization to have a cIAI caused by at least one pathogen that is nonsusceptible to doripenem or meropenem - Presence of any of the following clinically significant laboratory abnormalities: Hematocrit of less than 20%, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) <500 cells/µL, platelet count <40,000 cells/µL, serum alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or total bilirubin 5 times or greater the age-specific upper limit of normal (ULN) or acute/chronic renal insufficiency with a baseline creatinine clearance <50 mL per minute or requires dialysis therapy for any reason - Have a history of uncontrolled epilepsy defined as at least 1 seizure within the 6 months before randomization |

Primary | The Number of Participants With Clinical Cure Rate at Test Of Cure (TOC) Visit | The participants were considered as clinical cure if they had clinical improvement in signs and symptoms of the intra-abdominal infection such that no additional antibacterial therapy or surgical or percutaneous intervention is/was required for the treatment of the index infection, no fever, and a favorable response at End of IV visit. | TOC (7 to 14 days after the last dose of study medication therapy) | No |
Secondary | The Number of Participants With Clinical Improvement Rate at End of IV (EIV) Visit | The participants were considered as clinical improved if they had clinical improvement in signs and symptoms of the intra-abdominal infection, no fever, decrease in WBC, and not received any nonstudy antibiotics for the treatment of intra-abdominal infection after IV study drug therapy had begun. | EIV (within 24 hours after completion of the last dose of IV study medication therapy) | No |
Secondary | The Number of Participants With Clinical Cure Rate at Late Follow-Up (LFU) Visit | The participants were considered as clinical cure if they had clinical improvement in signs and symptoms of the intra-abdominal infection such that no additional antibacterial therapy or surgical or percutaneous intervention is/was required for the treatment of the index infection, no fever, and a favorable response at End of IV visit. | LFU (28 to 42 days after the last dose of study medication therapy) | No |
Secondary | The Number of Participants With Favorable Per-participant Microbiological Response | Favorable per-participant microbiological response rate was evaluated at the at End of IV (EIV) visit, Test Of Cure (TOC) visit, and Late Follow-Up (LFU) visit. The favorable per-participant microbiological response was considered when all baseline pathogens were eradicated (absence) or presumed eradicated (absence of material to culture in a participant who has a positive clinical response to treatment). | EIV (within 24 hours after completion of the last dose of IV study medication therapy), TOC (7 to 14 days after the last dose of study medication therapy), and LFU (28 to 42 days after the last dose of study medication therapy) | No |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Favorable Per-pathogen Microbiological Outcome Rate at End of IV (EIV) Visit | A total of 24 pathogens in the doripenem group and 6 pathogens in the meropenem group were isolated at baseline from the intra-abdominal culture and were susceptible to the study drug received. The most common pathogens isolated from the intra-abdominal culture are listed in the table below; the numbers in parenthesis next to each pathogen represent the number of participants with the pathogen isolated at baseline in the doripenem and meropenem treatment groups, respectively. The favorable per-pathogen microbiological outcome was considered when all baseline pathogens were eradicated (absence) or presumed eradicated (absence of material to culture in a participant who has a positive clinical response to treatment). | EIV (within 24 hours after completion of the last dose of IV study medication therapy) | No |
