What is being measured

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

  1. Early Clinical Response at the Early Assessment Visit (ITT Population)

    Early clinical response assessment based on the electronic case report form (eCRF) data at Early Assessment (48-72 hours after start of study drug) where a successful response (i.e., "responder") was defined as a reduction in primary ABSSSI lesion size ≥20% compared to baseline, and the subject did not receive a non-protocol specified systemic antibacterial agent with activity against Gram-positive organisms for the treatment of ABSSSI and did not die of any cause up to Early Assessment.

    Measured: 48 to 72 hours after the start of study drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing contezolid acefosamil and linezolid 600 mg in people with Skin Diseases, Bacterial and Gram-Positive Bacterial Infections, run by MicuRx at 7 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 8 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Apr 2021). 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?

Early Clinical Response at the Early Assessment Visit (ITT Population) (time frame: 48 to 72 hours after the start of study drug). 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 8 Nov 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
