Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: TERMINATED

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of antibiotic flomoxef with cefepime for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections (cUTIs) in Russian adults.

Detailed Description

The drug being tested in this study is called Flomoxef. Flomoxef is being tested in people with a complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI) including a kidney infection. This study compares Flomoxef to Cefepime, another antibiotic.

The study enrolled 13 patients.

Participants are randomly assigned by a computer generated number to one of two treatment groups:

• Flomoxef - intravenous infusion 2g twice daily (every 12 hours); or
• Cefepime - intravenous infusion 1g twice daily (every 12 hours).

This multi-center trial is conducted at 4 sites in the Russian Federation. The overall time to participate in this study is 30+/-3 days. Participants make six visits to the clinic.

Study was prematurely terminated due to administrative and strategic reasons.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Is a man or woman aged 18 to 70 years, inclusive.

3. Has clinical signs and/or symptoms of a complicated lower urinary tract infection (UTI) and/or acute pyelonephritis that include one or more of the following: fever (i.e, axillary temperature greater than 37.7°C), chills, malaise, flank pain, back pain, and/or costo-vertebral angle pain or tenderness and/or any symptoms of dysuria (dysuria, urinary urgency, urinary frequency, suprapubic discomfort, new urinary incontinence or worsening of pre-existing incontinence) that occur in the presence of a functional or anatomical abnormality of the urinary tract or in the presence of catheterization.

4. Has a pretreatment baseline urine culture specimen obtained within 24 hours before the administration of the first dose of study drug (NOTE: Participants may be enrolled in this study and start intravenous (IV) study drug therapy before the Investigator knows the results of the baseline urine culture).

5. Requires IV antibacterial therapy for the treatment of the presumed complicated UTI (cUTI).

6. In the opinion of the investigator, is capable of understanding and complying with protocol requirements.

7. Signs and dates a written, informed consent form and any required privacy authorization prior to the initiation of any study procedures, or has a legally acceptable representative sign the forms.

8. Has received any amount of potentially therapeutic antibacterial therapy after collection of the pretreatment baseline urine culture and before administration of the first dose of study drug.

9. Has received any dose of a potentially therapeutic antibacterial agent for the treatment of the current UTI within 48 hours before providing the pretreatment baseline urine culture specimen.

10. Has a current urinary catheter that is not scheduled to be removed before the End-of-Therapy (EOT) visit (intermittent straight catheterization during the IV study drug administration period is acceptable).

11. Has any history of trauma to the pelvis or urinary tract within one year before the screening visit.

12. Has any other contraindications to the medicines that are to be used in the study (according to the manufacturer's instructions).
