Ceftolozane-Tazobactam for Directed Treatment of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Bacteremia and Pneumonia in Patients With Hematological Malignancies and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
- Conditions
- Pseudomonas AeruginosaHematologic MalignancyPneumonia
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT04673175
- Lead Sponsor
- Weill Medical College of Cornell University
- Brief Summary
This is an open-label study, where participants will be given ceftolozane-tazobactam as the primary treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Open-label means both the investigator and the participant will known what drug will be given. Participants will be followed for approximately 60 days. Ceftolozane-tazobactam is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of serious bacterial infection and the investigator hypothesizes that ceftolozane/tazobactam may be effective as the primary antibiotic treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Global response at end of therapy Day 60 The proportion of subjects with a complete or partial Global Response (GR). Complete response is defined as "Survival within the prespecified period of observation, resolution of all attributable symptoms and signs of disease and radiological abnormalities, and microbiological evidence of eradication of disease." Partial response is defined as "Survival within the prespecified period of observation, improvement in attributable symptoms and signs of disease and radiological abnormalities, and evidence of clearance of cultures."
