Pharmacokinetics of Ceftazidime-avibactam Among Critically-ill Patients Receiving CVVHDF

September 7, 2020 updated by: Ryan Shields, University of Pittsburgh

Pharmacokinetics of Ceftazidime-avibactam Among Critically-ill Patients Receiving Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration

Ceftazidime-avibactam is used for treatment of invasive Gram-negative bacterial infections among critically ill patients, including those on continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration . However, dosing of ceftazidime-avibactam for these patients remains undefined. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of ceftazidime and avibactam among critically-ill patients, including those receiving CVVHD. This is a registration of Dr. Shields' exempt project under IRB approved research study STUDY19040363

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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

Patients who received ceftazidime-avibactam as part of their clinical care were consented. EMR data was collected as well as PK sampling around their dosing to include the following samples immediately pre-dose, then at the following times thereafter: 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours. Blood samples were collected in lithium-heparin tubes from a central venous catheter that is not being used for the continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration. The tubes were centrifuged at 2500 rpm for 10 minutes within 1 hour from collection and the samples will be frozen at 80°C. The total concentrations of ceftazidime and avibactam were determined simultaneously from plasma by using a validated HPLC-tandem MS assay. Noncompartmental pharmacokinetics were calculated using the linear-up and logarithmic-down trapezoidal method, based on the assumption of first-order elimination.

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

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.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 1, 2017

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
