TR-701 FA vs Linezolid for the Treatment of Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections

July 31, 2018 updated by: Trius Therapeutics LLC

A Phase 3 Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of IV to Oral 6-Day TR-701 Free Acid and IV to Oral 10-Day Linezolid for the Treatment of ABSSSI

This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, multicenter, global Phase 3 study of IV to oral TR-701 FA 200 mg once daily for 6 days versus IV to oral Zyvox® (linezolid) 600 mg every 12 hours for 10 days for the treatment of ABSSSI in adults. Patients are to start treatment with at least 2 IV doses and may receive IV therapy for the entire treatment duration.

Approximately 100 to 140 sites globally will participate in this study. Patients with an ABSSSI caused by suspected or documented gram positive pathogen(s) at baseline will be randomized 1:1 to study treatment.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The primary objective is to determine the noninferiority (NI) in the early clinical response rate of intravenous (IV) to oral 6 day TR-701 free acid (FA) compared with that of IV to oral 10-day linezolid treatment at 48-72 hours after the first infusion of study drug in the intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis set in patients with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI).
