Brief Summary

In clinical practice, amoxicillin + clavulanic acid is widely used in the treatment of odontogenic infection. Therefore, this study is designed to generate data to support its use by demonstrating efficacy, safety and tolerability in comparison with clindamycin in subjects with acute odontogenic infections with or without abscess. This will be a two-arm, parallel, comparative, observer blind, randomised study to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability of amoxicillin + clavulanic acid (875mg/125mg) in comparison with clindamycin (150mg) administered for 5-7 days in subjects with acute odontogenic infections with or without abscess. The study will be performed in adult subjects both male and female ≥18 years of age who present with acute odontogenic infections. A total of 472 subjects will be randomized in 1:1 ratio, i.e. 236 subjects in each treatment arm. The treatment duration of the study will be at least 5 days or maximum 7 days depending upon the treatment response. Subjects will be assessed on Day 5 and if Investigator feels the need of continuing the treatment at Day 5 then treatment will be continued till Day 7. For subjects who do not show treatment response on Day 5, assessments will be performed on Day 7.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Success (Cure or Improvement) Considering Clinical Judgment of the Investigator at the End of Treatment (Day 5 or Day 7)

    Clinical success is defined as the achievement of cure or improvement in signs and symptoms of odontogenic infections. Cure is defined as the complete resolution of signs and symptoms of infection present at baseline, such that no additional antimicrobial therapy is required. Improvement is defined as the resolution of fever (if present at baseline), \>70% reduction in swelling and pain and improvement in other signs and symptoms such that no additional antimicrobial therapy is required. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is used to measure the amount of pain and swelling that a participant experiences. This scale has numerical ratings from 0 to 10. Zero indicates no pain and 10 indicates worst possible pain.

    Day 5 or Day 7 [End of treatment]

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Number of Participants Achieving Clinical Success (Cure or Improvement) Considering Clinical Judgment of the Investigator at Day 5

    Day 5

  • Number of Participants (Par.) Achieving Clinical Success (CS) (Cure or Improvement [Imp] in Signs [s] and Symptoms [sx] [s/sx]) Without Considering Clinical (cl) Judgment (Jdg) of the Investigator (Inv) at Day 5

    Day 5

  • Change From Baseline in the Visual Analogue Scale Assessment of Pain Score at Days 2, 5 and 7

    Baseline, Days 2, 5 and 7

  • Change From Baseline in Visual Analogue Scale Assessment of Swelling at Days 2, 5 and 7
