About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-label, Multiple-dose, Single Centre Study to Investigate the Effect of Administration of CAZ-AVI and CXL on the Intestinal Flora of Healthy Volunteers.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of administration of CAZ-AVI and CXL on the intestinal flora of male and female healthy volunteers after multiple administrations over 7 days. An assessment of the effect on intestinal flora is an important aspect to understand for the safe clinical use of the investigational products and is expected by regulatory agencies.

Study groups in NCT01789528
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CAZ-AVI or CXLExperimentalCohort 1: CAZ-AVI (2000 mg ceftazidime and 500 mg avibactam) by intravenous infusion given over 2 hours, every 8 hours Cohort 2: CXL (600 mg ceftaroline fosamil and 600 mg avibactam)
Receives: Drug: CAZ-AVI; Drug: CXL

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in the intestinal flora of healthy subjects after administration of ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) and ceftaroline fosamil -avibactam (CXL).

    The number and types of microorganisms in faeces.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day-1) at Day 2, 5, 7, 10, 14 and 21

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Safety and tolerability

    Adverse event, ECG, safety laboratory assessments, physical examinations and vital signs.

    Measured: Screening up to 12 days after discharge from study site

  2. Pharmacokinetics of CAZ-AVI in healthy volunteers

    On Day 7, the following pharmacokinetic parameters will be calculated when applicable:

    Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), time of Cmax (tmax), time of last quantifiable plasma concentration (last), area under the plasma concentration-time curve during the dosing interval (AUC(0-τ)), area under the plasma concentration time curve from zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-t)), half-life (t½), systemic plasma clearance (CL), apparent plasma clearance (CL/F), volume of distribution at steady state (Vss), and apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F).

    Measured: Days 1, 2 and 5: Pre-dose and 2 hours post dose. Day 7: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post dose (Day 8)

  3. Pharmacokinetics of CXL in healthy volunteers

    On Day 7, the following pharmacokinetic parameters will be calculated when applicable:

    Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), time of Cmax (tmax), time of last quantifiable plasma concentration (last), area under the plasma concentration-time curve during the dosing interval (AUC(0-τ)), area under the plasma concentration time curve from zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-t)), half-life (t½), systemic plasma clearance (CL), apparent plasma clearance (CL/F), volume of distribution at steady state (Vss), and apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F).

    Measured: Days 1, 2 and 5: Pre-dose and 1 hour post dose. Day 7: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 7, 8, 12, and 24 hours post dose (Day 8)

  4. To measure CAZ-AVI and CXL plasma and faecal concentrations using bioactivity techniques.

    The concentrations of CAZ-AVI and CXL will be determined in plasma and faecal samples.

    Measured: Day -1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14 and 21

  5. To describe the in vitro susceptibility of new colonizing bacteria of the intestinal microflora to CAZ-AVI and CXL during and after CAZ-AVI and CXL administration.

    Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) for CAZ-AVI and CXL will be determined for new colonizing bacteria from faecal samples.

    Measured: Day -1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14 and 21

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CAZ-AVI and CXL in people with Pharmacokinetics and Open Label, run by Pfizer at 1 site in Sweden.

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 5 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 5 Sep 2017. 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 Sweden. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Changes in the intestinal flora of healthy subjects after administration of ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) and ceftaroline fosamil -avibactam (CXL). (time frame: Change from baseline (Day-1) at Day 2, 5, 7, 10, 14 and 21). 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 5 Sep 2017.
