New antibiotic for hospital-acquired pneumonia in adults
Treatments studied
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new antibiotic called YK-1169 compared to a standard antibiotic (ceftazidime-avibactam) in adults with serious lung infections acquired in hospitals or from ventilators. The goal is to see if YK-1169 works as well or better at treating these infections.

This trial tests a new antibiotic called HRS-8427 for adults with bacterial pneumonia that started in the hospital or while on a ventilator. It may be an option if you need IV antibiotics and haven't already received long-term treatment for this infection.
This trial compares a new antibiotic (BV100 plus low-dose polymyxin B) against a standard treatment for pneumonia caused by a hard-to-treat bacteria (Acinetobacter baumannii). If you have hospital-acquired or ventilator-associated pneumonia and standard antibiotics aren't working, this study may offer a new option.
This trial tests a combination of antibiotics (BV100, polymyxin B, and either ceftazidime/avibactam or cefiderocol) for serious lung or bloodstream infections caused by a tough-to-treat bacteria called Acinetobacter. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and works better than current treatments.
This study compares an experimental antibiotic called ASK0912 with an approved antibiotic (polymyxin B) in adults with hospital-acquired or ventilator-associated pneumonia. It aims to see if the new drug is as effective and safe as the standard treatment.
This trial tests a combination of two antibiotics (meropenem and pralurbactam) for treating serious infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to many other antibiotics. It may be an option for hospitalized patients with pneumonia, urinary tract infections, abdominal infections, or bloodstream infections.
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.
