Trial overview

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Double Dummy, Comparative, Multicenter Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Topical Retapamulin Ointment, 1%, versus Oral Linezolid in the Treatment of Secondarily-Infected Traumatic Lesions and Impetigo Due to Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus
Trial description: The purpose of this study is to provide further evidence of the clinical and
bacteriological efficacy of retapamulin in the treatment of subjects with SITL or impetigo
due to MRSA. Subjects aged 2 months and older will be treated with either topical
retapamulin for 5 days or oral linezolid for 10 days. The primary endpoint is the clinical
response at follow-up (7-9 days after the end of therapy) in subjects who have a MRSA
infection at baseline. The primary population is the per-protocol MRSA population. It is
anticipated that approximately 500 subjects may be enrolled in order to obtain
approximately 105 subjects who have a baseline MRSA infection.
Primary purpose:
Treatment
Trial design:
Parallel Assignment
Masking:
Double (Participant, Investigator)
Allocation:
Randomized
Primary outcomes:

Number of participants achieving clinical response at follow-up who had methicillin-resistant Staphlococcus aureus (MRSA) as a baseline pathogen

Timeframe: 7-9 days post-therapy; Day 12-14 for retapamulin and Day 17-19 for linezolid

Secondary outcomes:

Number of participants achieving microbiological response (MR) at follow-up (FU) who had MRSA as a baseline pathogen (BP)

Timeframe: 7-9 days post-therapy; Day 12-14 for retapamulin and Day 17-19 for linezolid

Number of participants with clinical response at follow-up

Timeframe: 7-9 days post-therapy; Day 12-14 for retapamulin and Day 17-19 for linezolid

Number of participants who achieved microbiological response (MR) at follow-up (FU) who had a baseline pathogen (BP)

Timeframe: 7-9 days post-therapy; Day 12-14 for retapamulin and Day 17-19 for linezolid

Number of participants with the indicated clinical outcome at the end of therapy who had MRSA as a baseline pathogen

Timeframe: 2-4 days post-therapy; Day 7-9 for retapamulin and Day 12-14 for linezolid

Number of participants with the indicated microbiological outcome at the end of therapy who had MRSA as a baseline (BL) pathogen

Timeframe: 2-4 days post-therapy; Day 7-9 for retapamulin and Day 12-14 for linezolid

Number of participants with the indicated clinical outcome at the end of therapy

Timeframe: 2-4 days post-therapy; Day 7-9 for retapamulin and Day 12-14 for linezolid

Number of baseline pathogens with the indicated microbiological outcome at the end of therapy

Timeframe: 2-4 days post-therapy; Day 7-9 for retapamulin and Day 12-14 for linezolid

Number of participants with therapeutic response at follow-up

Timeframe: 7-9 days post-therapy; Day 12-14 for retapamulin and Day 17-19 for linezolid

Mean scores on the Skin Infection Rating Scale at Visits 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5

Timeframe: Visits 1 (Day 1), 2 (Day 3-4), 3 (Day 7-9), 4 (Day 12-14), and 5 (Day 17-19)

Mean wound size at Visits 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5

Timeframe: Visits 1 (Day 1), 2 (Day 3-4), 3 (Day 7-9), 4 (Day 12-14), and 5 (Day 17-19)
