What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percent of Patients Who Display Microbiological Success (Eradication of Baseline Pathogens at Day 4)
Time Frame: Day 4 - Test Of Cure (TOC) compared to Day 0
Microbiological success was declared if the pre-therapy pathogens were eradicated at the Exit Visit; conversely, microbiological failure was declared if pre-therapy pathogens persisted at the exit visit. The microbiological outcomes were calculated based on an algorithm that assessed whether pre-therapy pathogens were eradicated or persisted as demonstrated by comparative characterization of recovered bacteria.
Day 4 - Test Of Cure (TOC) compared to Day 0
