Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Clinical Response at the Test of Cure (TOC) Visit
Time Frame: Test of cure visit: 2 weeks post-therapy (Day 28)
Clinical response was defined as complete resolution or significant improvement of signs and symptoms of the index infection. No further antimicrobial therapy or surgical or radiological intervention was required. This clinical response was measured in participants who were microbiologically evaluable (ME) at baseline.
Test of cure visit: 2 weeks post-therapy (Day 28)
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Time Frame: Baseline up to 6 weeks after last dose of study treatment (up to a maximum of 8 weeks)
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug and up to 6 weeks after last dose of study treatment that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state.
Baseline up to 6 weeks after last dose of study treatment (up to a maximum of 8 weeks)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Clinical Response at the End of Intravenous (IV) Therapy
Time Frame: End of IV therapy: From Day 5 to Day 14
Clinical response was defined as complete resolution or significant improvement of signs and symptoms of the index infection. No further antimicrobial therapy or surgical or radiological intervention was required. This clinical response was measured in participants who were ME at baseline.
End of IV therapy: From Day 5 to Day 14
Number of Participants With Clinical Response at the Late Follow-up Visit
Time Frame: Late follow-up visit: 4 to 6 weeks post-therapy (up to 8 weeks)
Clinical response was defined as complete resolution or significant improvement of signs and symptoms of the index infection. No further antimicrobial therapy or surgical or radiological intervention was required. This clinical response was measured in participants who were ME at baseline.
Late follow-up visit: 4 to 6 weeks post-therapy (up to 8 weeks)
Number of Participants With Microbiological Response at the Test of Cure Visit
Time Frame: Test of cure visit: 2 weeks post-therapy (Day 28)
Microbiological response was defined as eradication of pathogen identified (absence of causative pathogens from appropriately obtained specimens at site of infection) or presumptive eradication of pathogens (absence of material to culture in a participant who had responded clinically to treatment). This clinical response was measured in participants who were ME at baseline.
Test of cure visit: 2 weeks post-therapy (Day 28)
Number of Participants With Microbiological Response at the End of IV Therapy
Time Frame: End of IV therapy: From Day 5 to Day 14
Microbiological response was defined as eradication of pathogen identified (absence of causative pathogens from appropriately obtained specimens at site of infection) or presumptive eradication of pathogens (absence of material to culture in a participant who had responded clinically to treatment). This clinical response was measured in participants who were ME at baseline.
End of IV therapy: From Day 5 to Day 14
Number of Participants With Microbiological Response at the Late Follow-up Visit
Time Frame: Late follow-up visit: 4 to 6 weeks post-therapy (up to 8 weeks)
Favorable: eradication (absence of causative pathogens from appropriately obtained specimens at site of infection) or presumptive eradication (absence of material to culture in a patient who had responded clinically to treatment)
Late follow-up visit: 4 to 6 weeks post-therapy (up to 8 weeks)
Number of Participants With Clinical Response in Clinically Evaluable (CE) Participants at the Test of Cure Visit
Time Frame: Test of cure visit: 2 weeks post-therapy (Day 28)
Clinical response was defined as complete resolution or significant improvement of signs and symptoms of the index infection. No further antimicrobial therapy or surgical or radiological intervention was required.
Test of cure visit: 2 weeks post-therapy (Day 28)
Number of Participants With Clinical Response in CE Participants at the End of IV Therapy
Time Frame: End of IV therapy: From Day 5 to Day 14
Clinical response was defined as complete resolution or significant improvement of signs and symptoms of the index infection. No further antimicrobial therapy or surgical or radiological intervention was required.
End of IV therapy: From Day 5 to Day 14
Number of Participants With Clinical Response in CE Participants at the Late Follow-up Visit
Time Frame: Late follow-up visit: 4 to 6 weeks post-therapy (up to 8 weeks)
Clinical response was defined as complete resolution or significant improvement of signs and symptoms of the index infection. No further antimicrobial therapy or surgical or radiological intervention was required.
Late follow-up visit: 4 to 6 weeks post-therapy (up to 8 weeks)
