Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and lung penetration of intravenous Ceftolozane/tazobactam in critically ill participants.

Detailed description

This is a Phase 1, prospective, multicenter, non-comparative, open-label study to characterize the plasma pharmacokinetics and intrapulmonary penetration of ceftolozane/tazobactam in two groups of participants. Group 1: approximately 25 ventilated participants with suspected or proven pneumonia receiving concurrent standard antibiotic therapy. Within Group 1, efforts will be made to enroll approximately 5 participants with a CLCR ≥ 150 mL/min (as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation). Group 2: 8-10 critically ill participants with CLCR ≥180 mL/min (as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation).

Interventions

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product.
