  • Research summary

    In this trial, we are evaluating the safety and potential interactions of a new drug (SPR741) in combination with antibiotics and whether this interaction affects the levels of SPR741 and/or the partner antibiotics in the blood. The drug SPR741 is being developed to help treat bacterial infections, by a company called Spero Therapeutics Inc.

    A total of 27 healthy volunteers will be enrolled in 3 treatment arms to receive a single dose of SPR741 alone, a single dose of SPR741 in combination with 1 of the 3 different partner antibiotics (ceftazidime or piperacillin/tazobactam or aztreonam), and a single dose of the partner antibiotic alone in a three-period crossover design. Each arm will enroll nine participants. Each participant will be assigned to only one treatment arm.

    All participants will be confined to the clinical facility over 9 days (Day -1 to Day 8). Each of the 3 dosing periods in each arm will be separated by a 2-day washout period.

    Some of the most important inclusion criteria are:
    - Healthy subjects aged between 18 and 55
    - Subjects not taking any medication
    - Subjects who are non-smokers or ex-smokers who haven't smoked within 1 month prior to first dose.
