|
A Phase 2, Double-blind, Randomized, Active-controlled Evaluation of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of LBP-EC01 in the Treatment of Acute Uncomplicated Urinary Tract Infection Caused by Drug Resistant E. Coli
|
This is a Phase 2 superiority study of LBP-EC01, a recombinant bacteriophage cocktail, with an initial open-label 3-arm pharmacokinetic (PK) lead-in portion of 30 patients to evaluate the optimal dosing regimen to be used in the subsequent 288 patient blinded portion of the study which will be randomized 1:1 comparing LBP-EC01 + antibiotic versus placebo + antibiotic in patients with a history of prior urinary tract infection (UTI) cased by E. coli. All patients will be required to have an active acute uncomplicated UTI at baseline.
|
This study will consist of two parts.
Part 1 - Dose regimen selection: An open-label, 30 patient, 3-arm PK assessment of: Arm 4 (previously 1): LBP-EC01 (approximately 2×10^12 PFU) given by IU administration on D1 and D2 and LBP-EC01 (approximately 1×10^11 PFU) IV given as a 1 milliliter (mL) bolus QD from D1 through D3 concomitantly with oral trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP 160mg/SMX 800mg) BID from D1 through D3 (6 doses); Arm 5 (previously 2): LBP-EC01 (approximately 2×10^12 PFU) given by IU administration on D1 and D2 and LBP-EC01 (approximately 1×10^10 PFU) IV given as a 1 mL bolus QD from D1 through D3 concomitantly with oral TMP/SMX BID from D1 through D3 (6 doses); Arm 6 (previously 3): LBP-EC01 (2×10^12 PFU) given by IU administration on D1 and D2 and LBP-EC01 (approximately 1×10^12 PFU) IV given as a 100 mL IV infusion over 2 h on D1 through D3 concomitantly with oral TMP/SMX BID from D1 through D3 (6 doses).
Part 2 - Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics: A blinded, 288 patient, 1:1 randomized evaluation of the Arm 4 dose regimen, selected from Part 1, versus placebo + antibiotic (TMP/SMX -160 mg TMP and 800 mg SMX) given orally BID on Days 1 through 3.
