Antibiotic lung penetration study launches in china

NCT ID NCT07124468

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial in 16 healthy adults in China measures how much of the intravenous antibiotic Meropenem-Pralubactam gets into lung fluids and cells. Researchers aim to find the drug's concentration in plasma, epithelial lining fluid, and alveolar macrophages after four doses. The study does not treat any infection but provides key data for future dosing.
