A Multi-national Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Active Comparator-Controlled Clinical Trial to Study the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam (MK-7655A) Versus Piperacillin/Tazobactam in Subjects With Hospital-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia or Ventilator-Associated Bacterial Pneumonia

Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC·interventional·Posted Jul 11, 2018·Updated Jan 29, 2025

In Brief

A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating IMI/REL FDC, PIP/TAZ FDC, and 1 other intervention for Hospital-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia and Ventilator-Associated Bacterial Pneumonia. Completed, enrolled 274 participants across 68 sites in 8 countries.

Detailed Summary

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of a FDC of imipenem/cilastatin (IMI) and relebactam (REL) \[IMI/REL, MK-7655A\] compared to piperacillin/tazobactam (PIP/TAZ) in the treatment of adults diagnosed with Hospital-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP) or Ventilator-Associated Bacterial Pneumonia (VABP). The primary hypothesis is that IMI/REL is non-inferior to PIP/TAZ as measured by the incidence rate of all-cause mortality through Day 28 post-randomization.
