Study on the Safety and Effectiveness of Contezolid Acefosamil, Contezolid, and Linezolid for Adults with Moderate or Severe Diabetic Foot Infections

3 1 1

What is this study about?

This clinical trial is focused on studying the treatment of Diabetic Foot Infections, which are infections that occur in the feet of people with diabetes. The study will compare the effectiveness and safety of two medications, Contezolid Acefosamil and Contezolid, with another medication called Linezolid. These medications will be given to participants either through an intravenous infusion, which means the medicine is delivered directly into the bloodstream, or orally, which means the medicine is taken by mouth in tablet form.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate how well these medications work in treating moderate or severe diabetic foot infections. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the new medications, Contezolid Acefosamil and Contezolid, or the existing medication, Linezolid. Some participants may receive a placebo, which looks like the real medication but does not contain any active ingredients. The study will last for a period of up to 28 days, during which the participants’ health and response to the treatment will be closely monitored by the study team.

Throughout the study, the safety and tolerability of the medications will be assessed, meaning the researchers will check for any side effects or adverse reactions. The main goal is to see if the new medications are as effective or more effective than Linezolid in treating the infections. Participants will have regular check-ups and assessments to track their progress and the effectiveness of the treatment. The study aims to provide valuable information that could lead to improved treatment options for people with diabetic foot infections.

1 joining the study

Upon joining the study, you will be randomly assigned to receive either contezolid acefosamil or linezolid. This process is double-blind, meaning neither you nor the study team will know which medication you are receiving.

2 initial treatment phase

You will begin treatment with the assigned medication. If you are receiving contezolid acefosamil, it will be administered through an intravenous infusion. If you are receiving linezolid, it will be administered either intravenously or orally, depending on your specific treatment plan.

3 oral medication phase

After the initial treatment phase, you may transition to oral medication. If you are on contezolid, you will take it in tablet form. If you are on linezolid, you will continue with oral tablets.

4 monitoring and follow-up

Throughout the study, your health and response to the medication will be closely monitored. You will have regular visits with the study team to assess your progress and any side effects you may experience.

5 end of treatment evaluation

At the end of the treatment period, you will have a final evaluation to assess the effectiveness of the medication and your overall health. This will include a clinical response assessment at the day 35 visit.

Who Can Join the Study?

Trial locations

Investigated drugs:

Contezolid Acefosamil is a medication being tested in this clinical trial. It is given to patients through an intravenous (IV) drip, which means it is delivered directly into the bloodstream through a vein. This medication is being studied to see how well it works in treating infections in the feet of people with diabetes. The goal is to find out if it can help clear up these infections and how safe it is for patients to use.

Contezolid is another form of the medication being tested in this trial. Unlike Contezolid Acefosamil, this one is taken by mouth in the form of a pill. It is also being studied for its effectiveness in treating diabetic foot infections. Researchers want to know if it can help improve the condition of the infection and if it is safe for patients to take.

Linezolid is a medication that is already used to treat various bacterial infections, including those in the skin and soft tissues. In this trial, it is used as a comparison to the new medications, Contezolid Acefosamil and Contezolid. Linezolid can be given both intravenously and orally, and the study aims to compare its effectiveness and safety with the new treatments for diabetic foot infections.

Investigated diseases:

Diabetic Foot Infections – Diabetic Foot Infections occur when wounds or ulcers on the feet of individuals with diabetes become infected. These infections are often caused by bacteria and can lead to redness, swelling, and warmth in the affected area. As the infection progresses, it may cause pus formation and tissue damage. If not managed, the infection can spread to deeper tissues, including muscles and bones. This can result in increased pain and difficulty in walking. The condition requires careful monitoring to prevent further complications.
