Who cannot join

  • Participants who meet any of the following exclusion criteria will not be enrolled in the study:
  • Has a requirement of inhaled non-study antibiotic;
  • Has been treated with any inhaled antibiotic (including inhaled aminoglycosides) within 72 hours of study entry;
  • Has renal insufficiency at Screening as evidenced by an estimated creatinine clearance <50 mL/min based on the Cockcroft-Gault formula;
  • Is at risk of rapidly fatal illness and death within the next 72 hours;
  • Is a pregnant or nursing female. Females of childbearing potential must have a serum pregnancy test prior to enrollment. If results of the serum pregnancy test are not available prior to the Day 1 Treatment Visit, the patients may be enrolled on the basis of a negative urine pregnancy test; however, the results of the serum pregnancy test must still be obtained. If either test is positive, the patients must be excluded;
Show all 11Show fewer

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label Phase 1b Study of ME1100 Inhalation Solution Plus Best Available Therapy in the Treatment of Mechanically Ventilated Subjects With Bacterial Pneumonia

This study is a randomized, open-label phase I study. The primary objective of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of ME1100 in subjects with mechanically ventilated bacterial pneumonia (MVBP). The secondary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ME1100 for the treatment of subjects with MVBP to assess the safety and tolerability of ME1100.

Being tested
ME1100 inhalation solution

What is being measured

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

  1. Arbekacin concentrations in respiratory fluids collected via bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) for epithelial lining fluid (ELF)

    Measured: Day 3

  2. Plasma arbekacin concentrations

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 5

  3. Urinary elimination of arbekacin

    Measured: Day 2

  4. Arbekacin concentrations in tracheal aspirate

    Measured: Day 2

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    Measured: Screening through 14 days after the end of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ME1100 inhalation solution in people with Pneumonia, Bacterial, run by Meiji Seika Pharma Co., Ltd. at 14 sites in United States.

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 18 inclusion and 11 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 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in United States. 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?

Arbekacin concentrations in respiratory fluids collected via bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) for epithelial lining fluid (ELF) (time frame: Day 3). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 Jul 2017.
