REJUVENATE

Testing aztreonam-avibactam to treat complicated intra-abdominal infections. A Phase II, pharmacokinetic and safety study of aztreonam-avibactam (ATM-AVI). This is a beta-lactam-beta lactamase inhibitor combination intended to treat serious Gram-negative bacterial infections in patients with limited or no treatment options. The trial was carried out in collaboration with Pfizer.

Testing ATM-AVI

REJUVENATE’s primary objective is to test ATM-AVI as a treatment for hospitalized patients with a complicated intra-abdominal infection. Secondary objectives include assessment of treatment outcome (proportion of patients with clinical cure at the TOC visit) and the relationship between exposure of ATM-AVI and clinical cure.

The proposed administration of ATM-AVI for enrolled patients was a loading dose, immediately followed by a maintenance infusion. From day two onwards, the dose was raised. This treatment was continued for five to fourteen days, deemed appropriate by the investigator. If the patients showed significant clinical improvement, all study therapies were discontinued. Assessment of clinical response was made at End-of-Treatment (EOT), Test-of-Cure Visit (TOC) and Late-Follow-Up (LFU) points.

Study information

REJUVENATE is a prospective, open-label, single-arm, dose-confirming multicenter study. The study was carried out in Spain, France and Germany. Forty adult patients with a diagnosis of complicated intra-abdominal infection and the need for a surgical intervention were enrolled. First a cohort of ten patients were assessed. When the safety and pharmacokinetic was confirmed, the study proceeded.
