Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective is to determine the non-inferiority (NI) in the rate of the Investigator’s assessment of clinical success of intravenous (IV) to oral 6-day TR-701 free acid (FA) treatment compared with that of IV to oral 10-day linezolid treatment at the Post-therapy Evaluation (PTE) Visit (7 to 14 days after the End of Therapy [EOT] Visit) in the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) and Clinically Evaluable at PTE (CE-PTE) Analysis Sets.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) reviewed safety data at 2 time points (when approximately 33% and 67% of the patients were randomized and completed the Late Follow-up Visit). At both meetings, the DSMB concluded that the study could continue without modification. Subjects were free to withdraw from the study at any time and could be discontinued from the study at the request of the Investigator or sponsor. This study was conducted in accordance with current United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clinical trial regulations and guidelines, International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, the European Union Directive 2001/20/EC for clinical trials conducted in the European Union, and the institutional review board (IRB)/independent ethics committee (IEC)/ Research Ethics Board (REB), and local legal requirements.
    Background therapy
    For subjects with wound infections only, aztreonam and/or metronidazole could be added, if needed.
    Evidence for comparator
    Zyvox® (linezolid) is the only oral agent approved for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) activity. Linezolid has approximately 100% bioavailability, good efficacy, and an acceptable safety profile.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Eligible subjects signed an informed consent form and were to meet all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria prior to be randomized in this study. Randomization was done via an interactive web system in a 1:1 ratio.

    Subject, Investigator
    Blinding implementation details
    The sponsor, Investigator, study staff participating in direct patient care or clinical evaluations, and subjects were blinded to treatment assignment until all subjects had completed the study and the database was locked. A double-dummy approach was chosen with placebo unique to each active treatment (placebo for TR-701 FA and placebo for linezolid for both IV and oral formulations) to maintain the treatment blind.

    Clinical Response at the End of Therapy Visit - CE-EOTUS
    End point description
    A count of responders: subjects with no increase in lesion surface area from baseline. The analysis population is the clinically evaluable at EOT using programmatic assessment of response, a United States FDA objective (CE-EOTUS) analysis set including data from all randomized subjects receiving minimal study therapy, completed EOT Investigator's assessment, no concomitant systemic antibiotic therapy through EOT, and no confounding events or factors.

    Change From Baseline in Patient-reported Pain via the Total Faces Rating Scale, by Study Visit - ITT
    End point description
    The mean change in total faces rating scale (FRS) is presented by Study Visit. The assessment was made at 6 time points. One visit per subject on Day 2 and Day 3, only 1 visit total for Days 4-6, only 1 visit total for Days 7-9, only 1 visit total for Days 10-13, and 1 visit after Day 14. Data displayed for Day 2, Day 4-6, Day 7-9, and Day 10-13. Baseline is the last assessment made before first dose of study drug. The FRS is a 10 point scale where 0 is no pain, 4 is hurts little more, and 10 is the worst pain “you can imagine”. The analysis population is the ITT analysis set including data from all randomized subjects.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    17 Oct 2012
    Protocol Amendment 6 changed the definition of responder in the primary efficacy endpoint to a ≥20% reduction in lesion area and no fever component. Protocol Amendment 6 was reviewed by the US FDA and agreement that the Special Protocol Assessment was still intact.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Analyses for this study were conducted using 2 statistical plans, 1 for the US FDA and 1 for the EMA, to address differing guidance on the development of antibacterials. These differences are reflected in the EudraCT and clinicaltrials.gov records.
