Study Summary

This study is a Phase I, open label, non-randomized, dose-frequency escalation pharmacokinetics study among 24 healthy male and female subjects, aged 18 to 45 years to determine the pharmacokinetics and safety of high-, multi-dose cefixime for the treatment of reduced susceptibility gonorrhea. Stage 1(Cohorts A and B) will examine the pharmacokinetics of single 400mg and 800mg dose of cefixime. Stage 2(Cohorts C and D) subjects will take 800mg of cefixime every 12 hours for 2 doses. If that dosing regimen is well tolerated, the dose-frequency will escalate to 800mg every 8 hours for 3 doses, and serum levels of cefixime will be measured. Study duration is approximately 47 weeks.
