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   43861   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
    To evaluate the plasma pharmacokinetics of LYS228 in patients with cIAI and to evaluate the clinical response to LYS228 in combination with vancomycin and metronidazole compared to standard of care antibiotics for treating patients with cIAI
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.

    Clinical success is defined as resolution, or substantial improvement (i.e. reduction of severity of all baseline signs and symptoms and worsening of none) of all or most baseline signs and symptoms of cIAI infection without the need for additional antibiotic therapy other than any oral antibiotics given to complete treatment at home following discontinuation of Study Drug and no drainage or surgical reintervention required 96 hours after the start of Study Drug.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    02 Nov 2017
    The purpose of this amendment was to collect additional pharmacokinetics (PK) samples in order to better characterize LYS228 PK parameters in patients during the treatment course.
