Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug Arbekacin Sulphate in patient diagnosed with MRSA infection including septicemia and pneumonia where Vancomycin Hydrochloride is indicated.Timepoint: The primary efficacy variables will be clinical outcomes in terms of 1) Clinical cure rate of infection at 3rd day of treatment,EOT/discontinuation & followup visit i.e. 7 (±2) days after EOT. 2) Microbiological cure rate of applicable culture(s) in evaluable patients at follow-up visit i.e. on 3 day after EOT.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the safety and tolerability of Investigational drugs including laboratory investigationsTimepoint: Day of screening, Day 3, day 7, end of treatment (EOT) & on follow up 7 (±2) days after EOT follow-up visit i.e. on 3rd day after EOT.
