Summary

This is a randomized study to compare the safety and efficacy of a single dose of up to 2 grams of cefazolin administered using a new drug delivery method called Ultrasonic Drug Delivery (UDD), combined with standard of care (SOC) antibiotic therapy, oral or IV, compared to standard of care (SOC) antibiotic therapy alone, in treating chronic wounds with skin and soft tissue infection, containing gram-positive pathogens, in lower extremities.

Conditions

  • Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infection (ABSSSI)
  • Non-healing Wound

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Ultrasonic Drug Delivery

A maximum dose of 2 grams cefazolin in a solution of 1 gram/100 mL sterile saline will be injected into the affected area, followed by a 3-minute application of external ultrasound delivered at an acoustic intensity equal to 3 watts/square centimeter of surface area.

DRUG

Standard of Care Antibiotic Treatment

Antibiotic treatment according to the antibiotic package insert instructions for the particular gram-positive pathogen over a period of no more than 14 days.
