Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Proportion of patients with symptomatic resolution (or return to premorbid state) of all UTI-specific symptoms (frequency/urgency/ flank pain / suprapubic pain) at the TOC visit in the Microbiological Modified Intent-To-Treat (mMITT) analysis set
This was the first co-primary outcome measure for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For this outcome measure, success was achieved with a clinical outcome of Cure at the Test of Cure (TOC) visit. Cure was defined as all or most pre-therapy signs and symptoms of the index infection had improved or resolved such that no additional antibiotics was required.
Proportion of patients with both a per-patient microbiological eradication and symptomatic resolution (or return to premorbid state) of all UTI-specific symptoms (frequency/urgency/ flank pain / suprapubic pain) at the TOC visit in the mMITT analysis set
This was the second co-primary outcome measure for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For this composite outcome measure, overall success was achieved with a clinical outcome of Cure and microbiologic outcome of Eradication at TOC visit. Cure was defined as all or most pre-therapy signs and symptoms of the index infection had improved or resolved such that no additional antibiotics was required. Eradication was defined using the FDA's colony-forming units per millilitre (CFU/mL) criteria that the bacterial pathogen(s) found at baseline was/were reduced to <10^4 CFU/mL of urine culture and a negative blood culture for an organism that was identified as an uropathogen (if repeated after positive at baseline blood culture).
Proportion of patients with a favorable per-patient microbiological response at the TOC visit in the mMITT analysis set
This was the primary outcome measure for the European Medicines Agency (EMA). For this measure, a microbiologic outcome of Eradication was defined using the EMA's CFU/mL criteria: bacterial pathogen(s) found at baseline was reduced to <10^3 CFU/mL of urine culture and a negative blood culture for an organism that was identified as an uropathogen (if repeated after positive at baseline blood culture).

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of CSE-1034 (Ceftriaxone+ Sulbactam+ EDTA) compared to Meropenem for treating hospitalized patients with complicated urinary tract infections, including acute pyelonephritis caused by β-lactamase producing gram-negative bacteria
Detailed Description
cUTIs are mostly caused by gram-negative bacteria, including Enterobacteriaceae (particularly Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and often possess mechanisms leading to multidrug resistance. These mechanisms primarily consist of ESBLs (extended-spectrum beta-lactamases) that can hydrolyse cephalosporins, penicillins and aztreonam, and are encoded on mobile genes. This has led to increased risk of failure with first-line antibiotics and increased the usage of last line drugs like carbapenems. However, over the past decade, with the emergence of carbapenem-resistant infections caused by gram-negative pathogens like CRE (carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae), CRAB (carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii) and CRPA (carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa), there is a major threat looming on the effectiveness of these last resort drugs, warranting the discovery of newer and alternate agents. To this end, the concept of using Antibiotic Resistance Breakers (ARBs) to revive the potency of existing antibiotics has been widely discussed in the recent literature. ARBs, sometimes referred as antibiotic adjuvants, are non-antibiotic moieties which do not have any antimicrobial activity on its own, but, in combination with antibiotics enhance their antimicrobial activity and help overcome resistance barriers. Most beta lactamase inhibitors (BLIs) can be thought of as ARBs that do not have any significant antimicrobial activity when used alone, but in combination with a beta-lactam antibiotic, help restore the activity against beta-lactamase producing organisms. CSE-1034 is a novel combination of Ceftriaxone (third generation beta-lactam cephalosporin), Sulbactam (beta-lactamase inhibitor) and Disodium EDTA (Class 1 Antibiotic Resistance Breaker), and it restores the in vitro activity of Ceftriaxone against ESBL/MBL producing gram-negative bacteria, including enzyme families that belong to Ambler class A (TEM, SHV, CTX-M), class B (NDM, VIM, IMP), class C (some variants of AmpC), and class D (OXA ESBLs); it is not active against serine carbapenemases (higher variants of KPC, OXA carbapenemases). CSE-1034 also has proven in vitro activity against multiple resistance mechanisms including efflux pumps, bacterial biofilms, membrane permeability, and transfer of resistance by means of conjugation. Since CSE-1034 has shown its efficacy in ESBL producing Escherichia coli, Klebsiella species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter species in various in vitro and in vivo studies, therefore, to meet regulatory expectations, non-inferiority of CSE-1034 in comparison to Meropenem (drug of choice in ESBL producing pathogens) is under study in this phase-3 clinical trial.

This secondary outcome measure focused on the per-pathogen (Enterobacter species, Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii) microbiological outcome of Eradication in the m-MITT population at EOT, TOC, and LFU visit. A microbiologic outcome of Eradication was met if urine culture obtained at the relevant visit demonstrates <10^4 CFU/mL (for FDA) or < 10^3 CFU/mL (for EMA) of the original uro-pathogen, and the patient was not bacteremic (if the patient was bacteremic at Screening, the bacteremia has resolved)

To measure the difference change in Patient Quality of life using Medical Outcome Study (MOS)-Short Form Survey (SF-36) scale
Description
This secondary outcome measure focused on the MOS-SF-36 scale questionnaire. It was evaluated using the RAND methodology that measures the results based on eight different scales, namely - Physical functioning, Role limitations due to physical health, Role Limitations due to emotional problems, Energy/Fatigue, Emotional well-being, General Health, Health change, Pain and Social functioning. Broadly, the QoL scales are divided into two main sub-groups that provide a summary of the physical functioning and the mental functioning of the patient. Scores represent the percentage of the total possible score achieved, 100 being the highest score possible (denoting best outcome) and 0 being the lowest (denoting worst outcome)
