SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: EOT Day 11

Population: All randomized patients receiving minimal study therapy, completed 48-72 Hour and EOT assessments, no concomitant systemic antibiotic therapy through EOT, and had no confounding events or factors

232 participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Post-Treatment Evaluation (7-14 days after the End of Therapy)

Population: The Intent to Treat analysis set included data from all randomized participants.

Clinical success defined as resolution/near resolution of most disease-specific signs and symptoms, absence/near resolution of systemic signs of infection, if present at baseline, no new signs, symptoms, or complications attributable to the ABSSSIs so no further antibiotic therapy was required for the treatment of the primary lesion.
