Conditions

Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infection

Brief summary

This study is being conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety of Kimyrsa versus the approved oritavancin formulation in subjects with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infection (ABSSSI). Kimyrsa adjusts the infusion time, concentration and reconstitution/administration solutions of a single 1200 mg intravenous (IV) infusion of oritavancin

Detailed description

Single IV dose oritavancin (1200 mg) has been approved in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with ABSSSI caused or suspected to be caused by Gram-positive microorganisms. The current study is being conducted to evaluate the relative exposure, PK and safety of a new formulation of oritavancin, Kimyrsa, by adjusting infusion time, concentration and reconstitution/administration solutions of a single 1200 mg IV infusion of oritavancin in adult subjects with ABSSSI. Fifty (50) subjects will be administered the currently approved formulation of oritavancin, using the approved dosing regimen in which Sterile Water for Injection (SWFI) is the reconstituting agent and Dextrose 5% in Water (D5W) is used for further dilution to a total volume of 1000 mL. This formulation will be infused per the approved label over 3 hours. An additional 50 subjects will be administered Kimyrsa which contains hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD). This formulation will be reconstituted with SWFI and further diluted in 0.9% sodium chloride (saline) to a total volume of 250 mL. This formulation will be infused over 60 minutes.

Inclusion criteria

Subjects may be included in the study if they meet all of the following criteria: 1. Subject must be 18 years of age or older, male or female, and of any race. 2. Subject must give written informed consent before initiation of any study-related procedures. 3. Diagnosis of ABSSSI (wound infections, cellulitis/erysipelas, or cutaneous abscess) suspected or confirmed to be caused by a Gram-positive pathogen requiring IV therapy. 4. If female, the subject is surgically sterile, postmenopausal, or, if of childbearing potential, agrees to use at least 2 highly effective methods of birth control (e.g. prescription oral contraceptives, contraceptive injections, contraceptive patch, intrauterine device, barrier methods, abstinence) for the duration of the study until 60 days after study drug administration, or male partner sterilization alone. 5. Subject must express a commitment to comply with all study visits, procedures and requirements for the duration of the study.
