PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 5 to 21 days after the last dose of study therapy, or at early termination.

Population: Clinically Evaluable: Subset of the ITT population who received at least 5 days of study medication unless deemed a clinical failure with at least 2 full days of therapy, and excluding those subjects with a clinical outcome of Not Evaluable at the TOC assessment.

The table below shows the percentage of subjects who had a clinical response of "clinical cure" at the Late Follow-up Visit as assigned by the medical monitor. A clinical response of "clinical cure" is defined as no further antibacterial therapy needed for treatment of the infection.
