aztreonam and Soft Tissue Infections

aztreonam has been researched along with Soft Tissue Infections in 7 studies

Aztreonam: A monocyclic beta-lactam antibiotic originally isolated from Chromobacterium violaceum. It is resistant to beta-lactamases and is used in gram-negative infections, especially of the meninges, bladder, and kidneys. It may cause a superinfection with gram-positive organisms.
aztreonam : A synthetic monocyclic beta-lactam antibiotic (monobactam), used primarily to treat infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria. It inhibits mucopeptide synthesis in the bacterial cell wall, thereby blocking peptidoglycan crosslinking.

Soft Tissue Infections: Infections of non-skeletal tissue, i.e., exclusive of bone, ligaments, cartilage, and fibrous tissue. The concept is usually referred to as skin and soft tissue infections and usually subcutaneous and muscle tissue are involved. The predisposing factors in anaerobic infections are trauma, ischemia, and surgery. The organisms often derive from the fecal or oral flora, particularly in wounds associated with intestinal surgery, decubitus ulcer, and human bites. (From Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p1688)

Trial Outcomes

Clinical Response at TOC

Clinical cure is defined as resolution or improvement of signs and symptoms compared to baseline and no further antimicrobial therapy is necessary. Clinical failure is defined as any of the following: persistence or worsening in signs or symptoms, or requirement for concomitant antibiotic therapy, or requirement of an unplanned surgical intervention >48 hours after the first dose, or death caused by skin infection, or an AE leading to study drug discontinuation with alternative antimicrobial therapy required, or diagnosis of osteomyelitis >=8 days after the first dose. (NCT02202135)
Timeframe: 7 to 20 days after last dose of study drug
