Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical cure rate of ceftobiprole medocaril (the water-soluble prodrug \[form\] of ceftobiprole) referred to as ceftobiprole versus a comparator in the treatment of patients with nosocomial pneumonia.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Ceftobiprole medocaril (the water-soluble prodrug \[form\] of ceftobiprole) referred to as ceftobiprole is a cephalosporin antibiotic with anti-MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) activity. Ceftobiprole is not yet approved for the treatment of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) pneumonia. This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter study of ceftobiprole versus a comparator (linezolid plus ceftazidime) to assess the effectiveness and safety of ceftobiprole in patients with nosocomial pneumonia. The patients will be randomized to ceftobiprole plus placebo or the comparator. The primary endpoint is the clinical cure rate of ceftobiprole at the test-of-cure visit. The patients will receive either ceftobiprole plus placebo or the comparator for 7 to 14 days (unless extended at discretion of medical monitor). Patient safety will be monitored throughout the study. In December 2006, this study (BAP00248) and another similar study (BAP00307, see NCT00210964) were amended (changed) to create 1 study (BAP00248/307).Therefore, the results reported for this study will be combined with the results reported for study BAP00248 Patients will receive either ceftobiprole plus placebo or a comparator by intravenous infusion for 7 to 14 days (unless extended at discretion of medical monitor).
