Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of lefamulin, a pleuromutilin, for the treatment of adults with moderate community-acquired bacterial pneumonia

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Lefamulin is a potent, semi-synthetic antibacterial belonging to a novel class known as the pleuromutilins. The oral dosage form of lefamulin is under investigation in this study. Lefamulin's in vitro antibacterial profile includes the most important bacterial pathogens causing respiratory tract infection (RTI). The antibacterial spectrum comprises S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, M. catarrhalis, the atypical respiratory pathogens L. pneumophila,

  1. pneumoniae, and M. pneumoniae, S. aureus including MRSA and CA-MRSA, ß-haemolytic streptococci including S. pyogenes and S. agalactiae, and Enterococcus faecium including vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). Moreover, as demonstrated in cross-resistance studies, lefamulin remains active against clinical isolates resistant to the following antimicrobial(s) (classes): macrolides, lincosamides, streptogramin B, oxazolidinones, tetracyclines, ß lactams, quinolones, trimethoprim-sulfametoxazole, mupirocin, and vancomycin.

Experimental: lefamulin

oral lefamulin, 600mg

Drug: lefamulin
antibacterial agent
Other Names:
  • BC-3781
  • Active Comparator: Moxifloxacin

    oral moxifloxacin, 400mg

    Drug: Moxifloxacin

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Early Clinical Response (ECR) [96 hours +/- 24 hours after first dose of study drug]

      ECR was defined as survival with improvement in at least 2 signs and symptoms of CABP (relative to baseline), no worsening of any CABP sign or symptom, and no use of concomitant antibiotics for the treatment of CABP through the ECR assessment

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Investigator's Assessment of Clinical Response (IACR) [IACR was assessed at the Test-of-Cure Visit; 5 to 10 days after last dose of study drug]

      IACR was defined as resolution or improvement of a subject's clinical signs and symptoms such that no additional antibacterial therapy was administered for the treatment of the current episode of CABP

    Eligibility Criteria

    Criteria

    Ages Eligible for Study:
    18 Years and Older
    Sexes Eligible for Study:
    All
    Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
    No
    Inclusion Criteria:
    Each subject must:
    1. Be male or female at least 18 years of age.

    2. Provide written informed consent and be willing and able to adhere to the study-specified procedures and restrictions.

    3. Have an acute illness (less than or equal to 7 days duration) with at least 3 of the following symptoms consistent with a lower respiratory tract infection (new or worsening):

    • Dyspnea.

    • New or increased cough.

    • Purulent sputum production.

    • Chest pain due to pneumonia.

    1. Have at least 2 of the following vital sign abnormalities:
    • Fever (body temperature > 38.0 °C (100.4 °F) measured orally or equivalent temperature from an alternate body site) or hypothermia (body temperature < 35.0 °C (95.0 °F) measured orally or equivalent temperature from an alternate body site).

    • Hypotension (systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg).

    • Tachycardia (heart rate > 100 beats/min).

    • Tachypnea (respiratory rate > 20 breaths/min).

    1. Have at least 1 other clinical sign or laboratory finding of CABP:
    • Hypoxemia (i.e., O2 saturation < 90 % on room air or while receiving supplemental oxygen at subject's baseline requirement or PaO2 < 60 mmHg).

    • Auscultatory and/or percussion findings consistent with pneumonia (e.g., crackles, egophony, dullness).

    • White blood cell (WBC) count > 10 000 cells/mm3 or < 4 500 cells/mm3 or >15 % immature neutrophils (bands) regardless of total WBC count.

    1. Have radiographically-documented pneumonia within 48 hours before enrollment (i.e., infiltrates in a lobar or multilobar distribution or diffuse opacities on chest x-ray or chest computed tomography scan consistent with acute bacterial pneumonia).

    2. Have a Pneumonia Outcomes Research Team (PORT) Risk Class of II, III, or IV and be an appropriate candidate for oral antibiotic therapy as treatment for the current episode of CABP.

    Exclusion Criteria:
    Each subject must NOT:
    1. Have received more than a single dose of a short-acting oral or IV antibacterial for CABP within 72 hours before randomization.

    2. Require concomitant systemic antibacterial therapy potentially effective against CABP pathogens.

    3. Have been hospitalized for 2 or more days within 90 days prior to the onset of symptoms or have resided in a nursing home or long-term healthcare facility within 30 days prior to the onset of symptoms. NOTE: Residence in an independent living facility is permitted.

    4. Have confirmed or suspected CABP caused by a pathogen known to be resistant to any of the study drugs (e.g., MRSA, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, any pathogen of the Enterobacteriaceae Family) or attributable to etiologies other than community acquired bacterial pathogens (e.g., ventilator associated pneumonia, hospital acquired bacterial pneumonia, bacterial aspiration pneumonia, Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia or other fungal pneumonia, viral or mycobacterial infection of the lung).

    5. Have a noninfectious cause of pulmonary infiltrates (e.g., pulmonary embolism, chemical pneumonitis from aspiration, hypersensitivity pneumonia, congestive heart failure, bronchial obstruction, lung cancer, cystic fibrosis).

    6. Have confirmed or suspected pleural empyema (does not include sterile parapneumonic effusions).

    Study Results

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details The study was designed to enroll adults with CABP for which oral antibacterial therapy was appropriate. Subjects with PORT score of II, III and IV were eligible. The first subject was randomized in August 2016 and the last subject was randomized in December 2017
    Pre-assignment Detail Subjects who met inclusion criteria and did not meet exclusion criteria were randomly assigned to a treatment group. Administration of study drug was expected to occur as soon as possible after the diagnosis of CABP with all Screening/baseline assessments expected to be completed within 24 hours before the first dose of study drug.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Early Clinical Response (ECR)

    Time Frame 96 hours +/- 24 hours after first dose of study drug

    Adverse Events

    Time Frame Adverse events were recorded from the time of informed consent through the completion of the Test-of-Cure (TOC) Visit (i.e., 5-10 days after the last dose of study drug). Serious adverse events were recorded from the time of informed consent to the Late Follow-Up Visit (approximately 30 days after the first dose of study drug).
    Adverse Event Reporting Description Adverse events are reported for randomized subjects who received at least one dose of study drug (Safety Population). Treatment-emergent adverse events, defined as events occurring after the first dose of study drug, are reported. Adverse events were recorded whether or not they were considered to be study drug related.
