What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of clinical success (cure + improvement) at TOC visit (D12-19),clinical success at TOC visit in at risk sub-populations, clinical success at follow up visit (D25-35), reinfection rates,discontinuation of treatment rates, compliance

    Measured: D12-D19 (efficacy assessment) and D25-D35 (telephone follow-up)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety assessment of telithromycin (Safety will be assessed on the basis of serious and non serious adverse events)

    Measured: At V3

A Phase 4 study testing Telithromycin in people with Bronchitis, Chronic, run by Sanofi at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 24 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of clinical success (cure + improvement) at TOC visit (D12-19),clinical success at TOC visit in at risk sub-populations, clinical success at follow up visit (D25-35), reinfection rates,discontinuation of treatment rates, compliance (time frame: D12-D19 (efficacy assessment) and D25-D35 (telephone follow-up)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Dec 2009.
