Condition(s) targeted: Pneumonia
Intervention: Amikacin (BAY41-6551) (Drug); Amikacin (BAY41-6551) (Drug); Placebo (Drug)
Phase: Phase 2
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: Bayer Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Bayer Study Director, Study Director, Affiliation: Bayer
Summary
This study is part of a research program too see if amikacin delivered as an aerosol
directly to the lungs in combination with IV antibiotic therapy can help intubated patients
with gram-negative pneumonia get better faster than when given intravenous antibiotics
alone. The primary purpose of this study is to determine the correct dose of amikacin which
is delivered directly to the lungs as an aerosol via an investigational device called the
Pulmonary Delivery Device System (PDDS).
Clinical Details
Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled Parallel Group, Phase II Dose-Ranging Study of Nebulized Amikacin Delivered Via the Pulmonary Drug Delivery System (PDDS) in Ventilated Patients With Nosocomial Pneumonia Due to Gram Negative Organisms
Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator), Primary Purpose: Treatment
Primary outcome: Proportion of patients who achieve a C(max) for amikacin in tracheal aspirates at least 25 times greater than the reference MIC for hospital-acquired organisms and an AUC (0-24 hr) / MIC ratio that is 100 or greater on Day 1
Secondary outcome: Mean C(max) and mean AUC of amikacin in tracheal aspiratesMean ratio of C (max) / MIC and mean ratio of AUC (0-24 hr) / MIC Clinical cure rate Microbiological eradication rate of identified pathogens Microbiological persistence rate New infection rate Assessment of adverse events related to drug or device Assessment of abnormal laboratory values
