Inclusion Criteria:
* Hospitalized male and female patients ≥ 18 years
* Clinical diagnosis of either complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) with or without pyelonephritis or acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis
* cUTI diagnosed with a history of ≥ 1 of the following:
* Indwelling urinary catheter or recent instrumentation of the urinary tract
* Urinary retention (caused by benign prostatic hypertrophy)
* Urinary retention of at least 100 mL or more of residual urine after voiding (neurogenic bladder)
* Obstructive uropathy
* Azotemia caused by intrinsic renal disease (blood urea nitrogen and creatinine values greater than normal laboratory values) OR Pyelonephritis and normal urinary tract anatomy, ie, acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis AND
At least 2 of the following signs or symptoms:
* Chills or rigors or warmth associated with fever (temperature greater than or equal to 38 degrees Celsius)
* Flank pain (pyelonephritis) or suprapubic/pelvic pain (cUTI)
* Nausea or vomiting
* Dysuria, urinary frequency, or urinary urgency
* Costo-vertebral angle tenderness on physical examination AND
All subjects had to have urinalysis evidence of pyuria demonstrated by 1 of the following:
* Dipstick analysis positive for leukocyte esterase
* ≥ 10 white blood cells (WBCs) per μL in unspun urine, or ≥ 10 WBCs per high power field in spun urine
* Positive urine culture within 48 hours prior to randomization containing ≥10\^5 colony forming unit (CFU)/mL of a Gram-negati…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
