简要总结
Meropenem-vaborbactam is being compared to piperacillin-tazobactam in the treatment of adults with complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI) or acute pyelonephritis (AP).
详细描述
In the current era of increased resistance to extended spectrum cephalosporins, carbapenem antimicrobial agents are frequently the antibiotics of "last defense" for the most resistant pathogens in serious infections, including those found in cUTIs. The recent dissemination of serine carbapenemases in Enterobacteriaceae in many hospitals worldwide now poses a considerable threat to the carbapenems and other members of the beta-lactam class of antimicrobial agents.
Rempex is developing meropenem-vaborbactam administered as a fixed combination by intravenous infusion to treat serious Gram-negative infections such as cUTIs, including those infections caused by bacteria resistant to currently available carbapenems.

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion Of Participants In The Microbiological Modified Intent-To-Treat (m-MITT) Population Who Achieved Overall Success At The End Of Intravenous Treatment Visit
时间窗: EOIVT (Days 5-14)
This was the primary outcome measure for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For this composite outcome measure, overall success was achieved with a clinical outcome of Cure or Improvement and microbiologic outcome of Eradication at the end of intravenous treatment (EOIVT). Cure was defined as the complete resolution or significant improvement of the baseline signs and symptoms. Improvement was defined as lessening, incomplete resolution, or no worsening of the baseline signs and symptoms. Eradication was defined using the FDA's colony-forming units (CFU)/mL criteria that the bacterial pathogen(s) found at baseline was/were reduced to \<10\^4 CFU/mL of urine culture and a negative blood culture for an organism that was identified as an uropathogen (if repeated after positive at baseline blood culture).
Proportion Of Participants In The m-MITT Population Who Achieved A Microbiologic Outcome Of Eradication At The Test Of Cure Visit
时间窗: Test of cure (TOC) (Days 15-23)
This was the primary outcome measure for the European Medicines Agency (EMA). For this measure, a microbiologic outcome of Eradication was defined using the EMA's CFU/mL criteria: bacterial pathogen(s) found at baseline was reduced to \<10\^3 CFU/mL of urine culture and a negative blood culture for an organism that was identified as an uropathogen (if repeated after positive at baseline blood culture).
Proportion Of Participants In The Microbiological Evaluable (ME) Population Who Achieved A Microbiologic Outcome Of Eradication At The TOC Visit
时间窗: TOC (Days 15-23)
This was the primary outcome measure for the EMA. For this measure, a microbiologic outcome of Eradication was defined using the EMA's CFU/mL criteria: bacterial pathogen(s) found at baseline was reduced to \<10\^3 CFU/mL of urine culture and a negative blood culture for an organism that was identified as an uropathogen (if repeated after positive at baseline blood culture). The ME population included all participants who met m-MITT criteria and had a clinical outcome and microbiologic outcome at EOIVT or earlier; received \<80% or \>120% of expected IV doses; missed no more than 1 IV dose in the first 48 hours, missed no more than 2 consecutive IV doses; received no less than 6 doses for failure or no less than 9 doses for cure.
