A Study to Assess Sulbactam-durlobactam in Pediatric Patients With Acinetobacter Baumannii-calcoaceticus Complex Infection
What this study is about
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the use of Sulbactam-Durlobactam (SUL-DUR) in pediatric patients and is being conducted to collect how the drug moves through the body (PK) and safety data to enable the identification of appropriate pediatric dosing regimens for patients with Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex (ABC) infections

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the use of Sulbactam-Durlobactam (SUL-DUR) in pediatric patients and is being conducted to collect pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety data to enable the identification of appropriate pediatric dosing regimens for patients with Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex (ABC) infections
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Patient from birth (defined as post-natal age of 7 days) to \<18 years of age at the time of written informed consent (and assent, if applicable) and is hospitalized.
- Patient and/or parent(s) or legal guardian(s) have provided the written informed consent and/or assent.
- Patient has confirmed or suspected diagnosis of ABC infection and requires IV antibiotics for treatment.
- Patient has expected survival of 30 days after enrollment in the study.
- If patient is an individual of childbearing potential or reproductive potential, then the patient must remain abstinent OR must utilize one of the highly effective methods of contraception (ie, condom, combined oral contraceptive, implant, or injectable) from at least 30 days prior to screening until at least 30 days after administration of the last dose of study drug.
Exclusion criteria
- Patient is a preterm infant, born at \<28 weeks gestational age.
- Patient has history of significant hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to any β-lactam, any contraindication to the excipients used in the formulation, or any contraindication to the use of β-lactam antibiotics. Note: For β-lactams, a history of a mild rash followed by uneventful re-exposure is not a contraindication to enrollment.
- Patient is in refractory septic shock at the time of enrollment, defined as persistent hypotension despite adequate fluid resuscitation or vasopressive therapy.
- Patient is pregnant, breastfeeding, or intends to become pregnant.
- Patient is receiving peritoneal dialysis or cardiopulmonary bypass.
- Patient has received blood transfusion within 24 hours of study drug administration.
- Patient is a newborn with clinically significant anemia who, in the opinion of the investigator, will not be able to tolerate the necessary blood draws to complete the study activities.
- Patient (or patient's mother, if the patient is being breastfed) is using or will need to use any medications known to inhibit organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) (eg, probenecid).
- Patient has clinically significant renal, hepatic, or hemodynamic instability.
- For Cohorts 1 through 3 only: patient has weight outside of the 5th to 95th percentile based on age.
- Patient has an age-appropriate estimated creatinine clearance that indicates renal impairment.
- Patient has the following laboratory results at Screening:
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \>3×upper limit of normal (ULN) and,
- Total bilirubin \>2×ULN for age with conjugated/direct bilirubin \>20% of the total. Note: Patients with AST or ALT up to 5×ULN are eligible if these elevations are acute and are documented as being directly related to the infectious process being treated.
- Patient has clinically significant abnormal laboratory test results not related to the underlying infection that might expose the patient to risk by participating in the trial, confound the results of the trial, or interfere with the patient's participation for the full duration of the trial.
- Patient (or patient's mother, if the patient is being breastfed) has participated in a clinical study involving investigational medication or an investigational device within the last 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to first dose of the study drug.
- Patient has any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the safety of the patient or the quality of the data.
- Patient is unable or unwilling, in the opinion of the investigator, to comply with the protocol.
- Patient (or patient's mother, if the patient is being breastfed) has previously received durlobactam.
- Patient (or patient's mother, if the patient is being breastfed) has received sulbactam and/or sulbactam-containing regimens (eg, Unasyn) within 72 hours of first dose of the study drug.
- Patient (or patient's mother, if the patient is being breastfed) has received amphotericin B within 7 days of first dose of the study drug.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
