Phase 2 Trial of TD-6424 (Telavancin) Versus Standard Therapy for Complicated Gram Positive Skin and Skin Structure Infections (Gram Positive cSSSI) (FAST2)

January 14, 2019 updated by: Cumberland Pharmaceuticals

A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Multinational Trial of Intravenous Telavancin Versus Standard Therapy for Treatment of Complicated Gram-Positive Skin and Skin Structure Infections (Gram Positive cSSSI)

Serious infections caused by resistant bacteria are becoming more of a medical problem throughout the world. This study will measure how well TD-6424 (Telavancin) can control infections and whether the drug is safe to give to patients.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical Response Which is Measured at Test of Cure (TOC) in the Clinically Evaluable (CE) Population
Time Frame: 7 to 14 days following completion of antibiotic treatment
  • Cure: Resolution of clinically significant signs, symptoms associated with the skin infection present at study admission or improvement to the extent that the infectious process had been controlled and no further therapy with study medication was necessary.
  • Failure: Inadequate response to study therapy or the need for significant surgical management (e.g. more than just routine debridement) of the infection site following antibiotic therapy and prior to Test-of-Cure (TOC) visit
  • Indeterminate: Inability to determine outcome.
7 to 14 days following completion of antibiotic treatment
