Study Description
The primary objective of CLN01 was to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of intravenous (IV) clindamycin in overweight and obese children and adolescents. This study was a prospective, open-label safety and PK study of multiple doses of IV and oral clindamycin in overweight and obese children 2 to <18 years of age. Clindamycin PK samples to develop the population PK model were also collected from NICHD-2011-POP01 and NICHD-2012-STA01 and analyzed as part of CLN01. Overall, clindamycin was very well tolerated in this open-label study. Three AEs (including one SAE) were reported in 2 (9%) CLN01 patients; none were considered related to study drug. After accounting for size-based differences using total body weight and physiologic differences using age, only volume of distribution and terminal elimination half-life were significantly different between obese and non-obese children. Clindamycin may be dosed based on total body weight (max dose 2.7 g/day) without dose adjustment based solely on obesity. Children 2 years to <18 years of age at the time of first dose of study drug, with either suspected or confirmed infection or receiving IV clindamycin per routine care, and BMI ≥ 85th percentile for age and sex based on CDC recommendations
