What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Therapeutic Response (TR) (Combined Per Participant Clinical and Microbiological Response) at the Test-of-Cure (TOC) Visit - Micro-ITT NTF-S (IA Set)

    TR at TOC (success/failure) is a measure of the overall efficacy response. A therapeutic success at TOC referred to participant who have been deemed both a microbiological success (reduction of all qualifying bacterial uropathogens recovered at Baseline [BL] to <10^3 colony forming units per milliliter [CFU/mL] without receiving other systemic antimicrobials [AB] before the TOC visit) and a clinical success (resolution of symptoms of acute cystitis present at BL and no symptoms without receiving other AB before the TOC visit [or AB for uUTI on day of TOC visit]). Lack of clinical or microbiological success (including missing outcome assessments) was considered as therapeutic failure.

    Measured: TOC visit (Days 9 to 16)

  2. Number of Participants With Therapeutic Response (TR) (Combined Per Participant Clinical and Microbiological Response) at the Test-of-Cure (TOC) Visit - Micro-ITT NTF-S Population

    TR at TOC (success/failure) is a measure of the overall efficacy response. A therapeutic success at TOC referred to participant who have been deemed both a microbiological success (reduction of all qualifying bacterial uropathogens recovered at Baseline [BL] to <10^3 colony forming units per milliliter [CFU/mL] without receiving other systemic antimicrobials [AB] before the TOC visit) and a clinical success (resolution of symptoms of acute cystitis present at BL and no new symptoms without receiving other AB before the TOC visit [or AB for uUTI on day of TOC visit]). Lack of clinical or microbiological success (including missing outcome assessments) was considered as therapeutic failure.

    Measured: TOC visit (Days 9 to 16)

Secondary outcomes (33)
  1. Number of Participants With Clinical Outcome at the TOC Visit - Micro-ITT NTF-S Population

    Clinical outcomes at TOC were categorized as clinical resolution, clinical improvement, clinical worsening and unable to determine.

  5. Number of Participants With Therapeutic Response (TR) (Combined Per Participant Clinical and Microbiological Response) at the Follow up (FU) Visit - Micro-ITT NTF-S Population

    TR at FU was categorized as therapeutic success and therapeutic failure. A therapeutic success at FU referred to participants who have been deemed both a microbiological success (reduction of all QUPs recovered at BL to <10^3 CFU/mL, following microbiological eradication at the TOC visit, without receiving other AB before the FU visit) and a clinical success (resolution of signs and symptoms of acute cystitis demonstrated at the TOC visit persist at the FU visit and no new signs and symptoms, without receiving other AB before the FU visit [or AB for uUTI on day of FU visit]). Lack of clinical or microbiological success (including missing outcome assessments) was considered as therapeutic failure.

    Measured: FU visit (Days 21 to 31)

  6. Number of Participants With Clinical Outcome at the Follow up (FU) Visit - Micro-ITT NTF-S Population

    Clinical outcomes at FU were categorized as SCR, DCR, CI, CW, CR and UTD. SCR at FU was resolution of symptoms of acute cystitis demonstrated at the TOC persist at the FU (and no symptoms), without receiving other AB before the FU. DCR at FU was resolution of symptoms of acute cystitis present at BL after clinical failure at TOC without receiving AB before FU. CI at FU was improvement in CSS from BL, but not complete resolution without receiving AB before FU. CW at FU was worsening or no change in CSS at FU compared to BL after clinical failure at TOC or receiving other AB for the current infection (uUTI) before or on the date of the FU. CR at FU was symptoms of acute cystitis reoccur at FU after clinical success at TOC.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Gepotidacin and Nitrofurantoin in people with Urinary Tract Infections, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 113 sites in 6 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 31 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 18 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 113 sites in United States, India, Bulgaria, South Korea, Poland and 1 more country. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 18 Jul 2023). 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?

Number of Participants With Therapeutic Response (TR) (Combined Per Participant Clinical and Microbiological Response) at the Test-of-Cure (TOC) Visit - Micro-ITT NTF-S (IA Set) (time frame: TOC visit (Days 9 to 16)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04187144, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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 18 Jul 2023.
