Early treatment with ceftazidime-avibactam for serious infections
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests an antibiotic called ceftazidime-avibactam for people with serious infections like bloodstream infections or pneumonia that started in the hospital or from a breathing machine. It aims to start treatment quickly after identifying the bacteria.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have symptoms of a bloodstream infection or pneumonia that started in the hospital or from a breathing machine.
- A lab test from your blood or lung mucus found Gram-negative bacteria.
- You are not expected to die within the next 48 hours from shock or other illness.
- Your infection is not linked to a vein catheter that can't be removed.
- Your treatment is aimed at curing the infection, not just comfort care.
- You have not been in this same study in the last 60 days.

This trial tests whether measuring drug levels in the blood can help doctors give the right dose of ceftazidime-avibactam (an antibiotic) to patients with hard-to-treat infections in the ICU, potentially improving treatment outcomes and reducing side effects.
This trial tests a specific antibiotic combination (ceftazidime-avibactam) in patients with serious infections that are resistant to other antibiotics, while they are in intensive care. The goal is to see how well this treatment works for critically ill patients.
This trial tests two different schedules of a combination of antibiotics (ceftazidime-avibactam plus aztreonam) for people with serious infections caused by bacteria that are hard to treat. It aims to find the best way to give these medicines.
This study tests whether combining two antibiotics (ceftazidime and fosfomycin) works better than ceftazidime alone for hospitalized adults with serious bacterial infections. If you have a severe infection thought to be caused by Gram-negative bacteria, this trial may offer a new treatment option.
This study looks at how a certain antibiotic (ceftazidime-avibactam) works in people with blood cancers or stem cell transplants, and how the drug levels affect the bacteria. It aims to find the best dosing to fight infections and reduce resistance.
This study tests two ways of giving the antibiotic ceftazidime/avibactam (as a continuous drip or as intermittent shots) to patients in the intensive care unit with severe infections. The goal is to see which method works better or is safer for critically ill patients.
