Study Summary

This trial is studying the safety/effectiveness of ATM/AVI as a treatment for children with serious infections. They will be given an intravenous dose based on weight/kidney function, and may be switched to oral therapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for hospitalized children aged 9 months to less than 18 years with suspected or confirmed serious gram-negative infections, requiring IV antibiotics. It's not for those unlikely to respond to the study drugs within 14 days, pregnant/breastfeeding individuals without effective contraception, or those with certain medical conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial compares Aztreonam and Avibactam (ATM-AVI) combination against the best available therapy (BAT) in treating complicated infections like abdominal, urinary tract, bloodstream, and lung infections. ATM-AVI dosage depends on weight and kidney function; treatment lasts up to 14 days with possible switch to oral therapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at the infusion site, allergic responses specific to antibiotic use such as rashes or gastrointestinal issues like nausea and diarrhea. Kidney function might be affected due to medication processing requirements.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: ATM-AVIExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
ATM-AVI administered iv every 6 or 8 hours and dosed according to participant's weight and kidney function for up to 14 days depending on response. At the investigator's discretion, the participant may be switched to oral therapy after 3 days of iv ATM-AVI therapy
Group II: Best available therapy (BAT)Active Control1 Intervention
BAT will be selected by the investigator and administered iv. At the investigator's discretion, the participant may be switched to oral therapy after 3 days of iv BAT

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are people younger than forty years of age able to participate in this clinical study?

"This clinical study requires participants to be aged between 9 Months and 17 years old, per the pre-defined inclusion criteria."

Answered by AI

Are applications currently being taken for this experiment?

"According to clinicaltrials.gov, this trial is not actively recruiting at present as it was last updated on November 28th 2022 and initially posted on January 23rd 2023. Nonetheless, 801 additional medical studies are still in need of participants for their research."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA approved ATM-AVI for medical use?

"Our research team at Power has rated the safety of ATM-AVI as a 2, since it is only in phase 2 and lacks evidence for efficacy but does have some data backing its safe usage."

Answered by AI

What are the foremost goals of this experimental research?

"This medical trial will assess the proportion of participants that suffer from liver injury and acute kidney injury when compared to best available therapy (BAT). Additionally, it will measure the percentage of patients with a favorable microbiological response at end-of-iv study drug treatment, end of treatment in those switched to oral therapy, and test of cure. All outcomes are expected within 50 days following baseline measurements."

Answered by AI

Is there a specific demographic that is favored for participation in this investigation?

"This clinical trial requires 48 participants aged from 9 months to 17 years who are hospitalized and diagnosed with gram-negative bacterial infections, such as cIAI, cUTI, HAP/VAP or BSI."
