Brief Summary

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

This is a Phase 3, multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, double dummy study of CXA-201 Intravenous (IV) infusions (1500mg q8h) and metronidazole (500mg q8h) versus meropenem (1000mg q8h)for the treatment of adults with Complicated Intraabdominal Infections (cIAI).

Detailed Description

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

Approximately, 500 subjects will be enrolled into this study, randomized 1:1 to receive CXA-201 and metronidazole or comparator (meropenem). Subject participation will require a minimum commitment of 38 days and a maximum of 45 days. An End of Treatment (EOT) visit will occur within 24 hours following the last dose of study drug administration/drug discontinuation. A Test of Cure (TOC)/Safety visit will be conducted 26 to 30 days following the first dose of study drug administration. A Last Follow-up (LFU) visit will be conducted 38 to 45 days after the first dose of study drug.

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria

* Diagnoses of cIAI.
* Subject requires surgical intervention (e.g., laparotomy, laparoscopic surgery, or percutaneous draining of an abscess) within 24 hours of (before or after) the first dose of study drug.

Exclusion Criteria

* Simple appendicitis; acute suppurative cholangitis; infected necrotizing pancreatitis; pancreatic abscess; or pelvic infections.
* Complicated intraabdominal infection managed by staged abdominal repair (STAR), open abdomen technique including temporary closure of the abdomen, or any situation where infection source control is not likely to be achieved.
* Use of systemic antibiotic therapy for IAI for more than 24 hours prior to the first dose of study drug, unless there is a documented treatment failure with such therapy.
* Have a concomitant infection at the time of randomization, which requires non-study systemic antibacterial therapy in addition to IV study drug therapy. (Drugs with only gram-positive activity \[e.g., daptomycin, vancomycin, linezolid\] are allowed).
* Severe impairment of renal function (estimated CrCl \< 30 mL/min), or requirement for peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis or hemofiltration, or oliguria (\< 20 mL/h urine output over 24 hours).
* The presence of hepatic disease at baseline.
* Considered unlikely to survive the 4 to 5 week study period.
* Any rapidly-progressing disease or immediately life-threatening illness (including respiratory failure and septic shock).
* Have a documented history of any moderate or severe hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to any β-lactam antibacterial (a history of a mild rash followed by uneventful re-exposure is not a contraindication to enrollment), including cephalosporins, carbapenems, penicillins, or ß-lactamase inhibitors, or metronidazole, or nitroimidazole derivatives.
* Women who are pregnant or nursing.
