General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to establish the safety and tolerability of doripenem compared with that of cefepime in hospitalized children 3 months to less than 18 years of age with suspected bacterial pneumonia including NP (Nosocomial Pneumonia), VAP (Ventilator-Assiociated Pneumonia), and severe CAP (Community-Acquired Pneumonia).
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
This study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with Good Clinical Practices and applicable
regulatory requirements. An Independent Data Monitoring Committee [IDMC] monitored the safety of participants in this study as well as 2 additional Phase 3 pediatric trials being conducted by the Sponsor simultaneously. Safety evaluations included the measurement of vital signs, monitoring of reported adverse effects (AEs), including serious adverse effects (SAEs), concomitant therapy, serum
chemistry, hematology assessments, and urinalysis with microscopy.

Date |
Amendment |
||||||
02 Apr 2011 |
The overall reason for the amendment is to incorporate comments from regulatory authorities and investigators from around the world and update the dosing of amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium to every 12 hours every 12 hours [q12h] (7:1 amoxicillin/clavulanate ratio). It includes the clarifications for the doripenem phase 3 program also to clarify that subjects should not receive non study systemic antibacterial therapy for more than 24 hours before the first dose of study drug and to remove CPIS from the study since it has not been validated as a criterion of improvement for children on mechanical ventilation.The amendment also includes the requirement that urinalysis with microscopy and creatinine clearance be calculated at baseline as well as to specify time points for the collection of safety laboratory test. The amendment incorporate to allow subjects to continue adjunctive therapy when switched to oral medication and to update the dosing of amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium. It also includes to align the protocol with the EU pediatric investigational plan (PIP) and to remove details of the IDMC that will be specified in the IDMC charter. The amended protocol includes to revise the pharmacokinetic sample collection and handling methods. |

Interruptions (globally) |

Limitations and caveats |
|||||||
Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data. | |||||||
The major limitation of the study was limited enrollment which precludes a meaningful conclusion about the efficacy and safety of doripenem compared with cefepime. |
