What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical Response (Cure, Failure, or Indeterminate) as Determined by the Investigator Based the Presence or Absence of Clinical Signs and Symptoms Associated With Bacteremia, Metastatic Complications, or Positive Culture at the Test of Cure Evaluation
Time Frame: 12 weeks after start of treatment
Outcomes in this exploratory study were compared for noninferiority though no specific margin was justified. The 95% CI for the difference was -35.5 to 31.9; further statistical evaluation is not warranted owing to the small sample size.
12 weeks after start of treatment
