Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A study to report the outcomes of patients who fail to respond to beta-lactam and macrolide antibiotics in the community

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To document and describe the clinical, microbiological, and pharmacoeconomic outcomes of two hundred patients who failed to respond to outpatient macrolide or beta-lactam therapy. Evaluable patients must have a positive culture obtained after they failed their initial macrolide or beta-lactam. The isolated pathogen must have a known MIC to the antibiotic class they failed to respond to (i.e. macrolide or b-lactam). The isolate must be available to be sent to the central laboratory for MIC testing

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

Patients who have failed to respond to at least three (ABECB and CAP) or five (AMS/ABRS/AECRS) days of macrolide or b-lactam therapy meeting all of the protocol criteria for acute bacterial exacerbations on chronic bronchitis(ABECB), community acquired pneumonia(CAP) and acute maxillary sinusitis(AMS) will be eligible for enrollment. All patients, whether enrolled retrospectively or concurrently, must have a positive culture. The pathogenic bacteria must be identified by a local laboratory and have a known susceptibility to the antibiotic class the patient failed to respond to (i.e. macrolide or b-lactam). The isolate must be sent to the Study Coordinating Center for precise MIC determination.

Exclusion Criteria

Patients presenting with any of the following will not be included in the study:

1. Life expectancy \<3 months from underlying disease
2. Underlying lung carcinoma
3. Cystic fibrosis
