What is being measured

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

  1. Average Time From Baseline to Recovery From Cough and Other Symptoms

    Study participants were seen at an initial visit (baseline) and received Klacid treatment for 5 to 14 days. A medical appointment (visit or phone call) was made 6 to 14 days after the first visit. Participants' symptoms were rated using one of the following categories: resolved, improved, not changed, or worse. Associated dates were also recorded. Symptoms included, but were not limited to, cough, fever, and sore throat. Recovery was defined as the disappearance of all signs and symptoms of infection.

    Measured: Baseline to 14 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number and Type of Adverse Events

    Adverse events were collected during the course of the study up to 30 days or 5 half-lives following the last dose of Klacid. The number of participants experiencing a serious or non-serious adverse event is summarized. See the Reported Adverse Event section for details.

    Measured: Baseline to 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Tract Infection, run by Abbott at 26 sites in Thailand.

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 2 inclusion and 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jul 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in Thailand. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Jun 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Average Time From Baseline to Recovery From Cough and Other Symptoms (time frame: Baseline to 14 days). 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 12 Jul 2011.
