Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Prospective, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CEM-102 for chronic antibiotic suppressive therapy of bone or joint infections. Subjects enrolling in this study must have a refractory staphylococcal bone or joint infection that requires suppressive antibiotic therapy (e.g. having an infection that cannot be managed by complete removal of the infected bone or foreign material, a refractory infection not responding to previous treatment, or not being a candidate for long-term intravenous antibiotic therapy).

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

12 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT, CHILD)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical Success at 6 Months
Time Frame: 6 months after start of treatment

Number of participants in the intent to treat (ITT) analysis set who meet all the criteria for clinical success at the 6-Month Visit.

Clinical success was defined to occur when subjects met all of the following criteria: 1) Subject was not hospitalized due to worsening of the study-qualifying orthopedic infection. 2) Subject did not undergo a definitive surgical procedure (such as amputation). 2) No additional antibiotics (after completion of companion antibiotics) are required for treatment of the orthopedic infection due to the inclusionary pathogen. 3) Wound is closed, or the open area decreased in size (L x W) and, if a skin graft was done, the graft remains viable without evidence of infection. 4) No purulent discharge from the surgical wound, or new or recurring sinus tract. 5) No worsening of redness, tenderness, or swelling at the primary infection site. 5) No bacteremia
