Kidney function may affect how new antibiotic combo works
NCT ID NCT05488678
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-stage study tested how a single dose of the antibiotic combination ceftibuten/VNRX-7145 is processed by the body in 32 adults with normal or impaired kidney function, including those on dialysis. Researchers measured drug levels in the blood and monitored safety. The goal was to gather information for future dosing recommendations, not to treat an infection.
