Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical Response
Time Frame: 7 - 14 days following end of antibiotic treatment

Clinical Response: Categorical (Cured, Failed or Indeterminate)

  • Failure is at least one of the following: Persistence or progression of signs and symptoms of pneumonia that still require antibiotic therapy; Termination of study med due to "lack of efficacy"; Death on or after Day 3 attributable to primary infection
  • Cure: Signs and symptoms of pneumonia improved to the point that no further antibiotics for pneumonia were required, and baseline radiographic findings improved or did not progress.
  • Indeterminate: Inability to determine outcome
7 - 14 days following end of antibiotic treatment
