Trial overview

Official title: A Phase II, Randomized, Two-Part, Multicenter, Dose-Ranging Study in Adult Subjects Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of GSK2140944 in the Treatment of Subjects with Suspected or Confirmed Gram-Positive Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections
Trial description: GSK2140944 belongs to a novel structural class of antibiotics – Bacterial Type II Topoisomerase Inhibitors (BTI). This is a Phase II, randomized, two-part, multicenter study designed to select the optimal dose by further characterizing the safety, tolerability and PK of GSK 2140944 and by evaluating efficacy in subjects requiring in-patient medical care to treat their suspected or confirmed Gram-positive acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI). The selected dose will be used in future studies.

A subject enrolled as a failure of a previous antibacterial treatment regimen must EITHER: Show worsening or lack of improvement or worsening in signs and symptoms of infection, including continued or worsening purulence, erythema with or without induration, fluctuation, heat/localized warmth, and pain/tenderness and/or continued or worsening systemic markers of infection OR show microbiological evidence of failure; The subject recently completed a treatment course with an antibacterial drug for an infection other than ABSSSI and the drug does not have antibacterial activity against bacterial pathogens that cause ABSSSI. (Note: topical antiseptics, chorhexidine, and alcohol and soaps for wound care are permitted). For the purposes of these criteria, the information may be obtained via a verbal interview with the subject or from the subject’s medical records; information obtained via a verbal interview must be recorded in the subject’s medical record.
    • The subject has known or suspected severe impairment of renal function, including a calculated creatinine clearance (as calculated using the Cockroft-Gault method) of less than 30 millilitre per minute; requirement for peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis, or hemofiltration; or oliguria (less than 20 millilitre urine output per hour over 24 hours).
