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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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
    This study aims to compare treatment with a fixed-dose combination (FDC) of imipenem/relebactam/cilastatin (IMI/REL) with a FDC of piperacillin/tazobactam (PIP/TAZ) in participants with hospital-acquired or ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP or VAPB, respectively). The primary hypothesis is that IMI/REL is non-inferior to PIP/TAZ in the percentage of participants with a favorable clinical response.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research.

    The percentage of participants with a FCR at EFU was determined for each arm. Favorable clinical response at EFU was defined as either "sustained cure" (all pre-therapy signs and symptoms of the index infection have resolved [or returned to "pre-infection status"] with no evidence of resurgence and no additional antibiotics are required) or "cure" (all pre-therapy signs and symptoms of the index infection have resolved [or returned to "pre-infection status"] and no additional antibiotics are required). The MITT population includes all randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study treatment and did not have only gram-positive cocci on Gram stain of the baseline lower respiratory tract (LRT) specimen.

    Percentage of participants with ACM at EFU in the mMITT population
    End point description
    The percentage of participants in the mMITT population with mortality due to any cause from randomization through EFU was determined for each arm. The mMITT population includes all randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study treatment and did not have only gram-positive cocci only on baseline Gram stain and who have a baseline bacterial pathogen identified as the cause of HABP/VABP against which IMI/REL has been shown to have antibacterial activity.

    Percentage of participants in the ME population with a FMR at EFU visit
    End point description
    The percentage of participants with a FMR at EOT was determined for each arm. Favorable microbiological response at EOT was defined as either "eradication" (a lower respiratory tract culture taken at EOT showing eradication of baseline pathogen) or "presumed eradication" (no specimen collected because the participant deemed clinically cured or improved). The ME population is all randomized participants with ≥1 dose of study therapy; not only gram-positive cocci on baseline Gram stain; IMI/REL-sensitive baseline pathogen as cause of HABP/VABP; met entry criteria; no protocol deviations; received minimum duration of IV therapy; have microbiological EFU data and LRT culture available.

    Adverse event reporting additional description
    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. All randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of intravenous (IV) study therapy are included in the analysis.

    Reporting group description
    Participants received piperacillin 4000 mg + tazobactam 500 mg as a FDC administered IV every 6 hours for a minimum of 7 days, up to 14 days. At the start of PIP/TAZ treatment, participants were treated empirically with 600 mg open-label linezolid administered IV every 12 hours until MRSA was ruled out. Participants with confirmed MRSA infection continued to receive 600 mg linezolid every 12 hours for a minimum of 7 days, up to 14 days total.
