Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Tuberculosis
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01225640
Lead Sponsor
Sequella, Inc.
Brief Summary

PNU-100480 is being developed for the treatment of both drug resistant and sensitive tuberculosis. This is an efficacy and safety study to characterize the effect of PNU-100480 when given for 14 days to treatment-naive patients with drug-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary endpoint is rate of change in sputum log CFU/mL count (EBA) from Days 0-2.Days 0-2
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of change in culture time to positivity (TTP) measured by MGIT and in log transformed TTPDays 02-; 2-14; 0-14
Cumulative whole blood bactericidal activity (measured as log reduction in CFU) against intracellular M. tuberculosis relative to administered dose and drug PKDay 13-14
Plasma concentrations of PNU-100480 and PNU-101603 will be used to determine PK parameters (AUCtau, AUC tau,ss, Cmax, Tmax, terminal half-life t1/2, Cavg, Rac) as data permitDay 13-14
Safety assessments including physical exams, AEs, laboratory tests, ECGs, and vital signs.Lab tests at Screening, Day 1, Day 15 and 42/Follow-up
Rate of change in sputum log CFU/mL count (extended EBA).Days 0-14
