Inclusion criteria

* Males and females 18 or more years of age * Lung Infection of Individual not Recently Hospitalized meeting the following criteria: Radiographically-confirmed pneumonia (new or progressive infection site of the lungs) consistent with bacterial pneumonia), AND Acute illness (≤ 7 days duration) with at least three of the following clinical signs or symptoms consistent with lung infection: New or increased cough, Purulent sputum or change in sputum character, Auscultatory findings consistent with pneumonia, Difficulty in breathing, short breath, or decreased partial pressure of oxygen in blood, Fever greater than 38ºC oral or body temperature lower than that required for normal body function(\< 35ºC), White blood cell count greater than or less than the normal, Greater than 15% immature neutrophils (bands) irrespective of white blood cell count, AND Moderate lung infection * The subject must require initial hospitalization, or treatment in an emergency room or urgent care setting, by the standard of care * The subject's infection would require initial treatment with intravenous antimicrobials * Female subjects of child-bearing potential, and those who are fewer than 2 years post-menopausal, must agree to, and comply with, using highly effective methods of birth control while participating in this study

Exclusion criteria

* Lung Infection of Individual not Recently Hospitalized suitable for outpatient therapy with an oral antimicrobial agent * Confirmed or suspected respiratory tract infections attributable to sources other than bacteria from the individuals not recently hospitalized(e.g., ventilator-associated pneumonia, hospital-acquired pneumonia, visible/gross aspiration pneumonia, suspected viral, fungal, or mycobacterial infection of the lung) * Non-infectious causes of lung lesion (e.g., pulmonary embolism, chemical pneumonitis from aspiration, hypersensitivity pneumonia, congestive heart failure) * Accumulation of pus in the pleural cavity * Microbiologically-documented infection with a pathogen known to be resistant to ceftriaxone, or epidemiological or clinical context suggesting high likelihood of a ceftriaxone-resistant typical bacterial pathogen.

Clinical Cure Rate for Ceftaroline Compared to That for Ceftriaxone at Test of Cure (TOC) in CE Population

Cure:Total resolution of all signs and symptoms of pneumonia (ie,CABP), or improvement to such an extent that further antimicrobial therapy was not necessary Failure: Any of the following: •Persistence, incomplete clinical resolution, or worsening in signs and symptoms of CABP that required alternative antimicrobial therapy •Treatment-limiting AE leading to discontinuation of study drug therapy, when subject required alternative antimicrobial therapy to treat the pneumonia •Death wherein pneumonia (ie,CABP) was considered causative Indeterminate: Inability to determine an outcome

Time frame: 7-20 days after last dose of study drug

Population: CE population: All patients in the MITT population who also meet the minimal disease criteria for CABP and for whom sufficient information regarding CABP is available to determine the patient's outcome (ie, the patient does not have an indeterminate outcome).

Population: ME population: includes patients who meet criteria for both the CE and mMITT populations. In fact, there were different pathogens isolated and we decided to focus on the 5 ones that occurred the most. Additionally please be informed that patients number will not match even if we present all 18 pathogens due to polymicrobial infections.

Per-Patient Microbiological Response at Test of Cure (TOC) Visit in ME Population

An outcome is considered as favourable if the per-pathogen response for that subject is either Eradication (An adequate source specimen demonstrates absence of the original baseline pathogen) or presumed eradication (An adequate source specimen was not available to culture and the patient was assessed as a clinical cure). Here, an adequate source specimen is defined as any sample that may yield the growth of a CABP pathogen eg, blood, respiratory specimens, or pleural fluid.

Time frame: 7-20 days after last day of study drug administration

Population: ME population: The ME population includes patients who meet criteria for both the CE and mMITT populations.

An outcome is considered as favourable if the per-pathogen response for that subject is either Eradication (An adequate source specimen demonstrates absence of the original baseline pathogen) or presumed eradication (An adequate source specimen was not available to culture and the patient was assessed as a clinical cure). Here, an adequate source specimen is defined as any sample that may yield the growth of a CABP pathogen eg, blood, respiratory specimens, or pleural fluid.

Time frame: 7-20 days after last day of study drug administration

Population: mMITT population: All subjects in MITT population who meet the minimal disease criteria for CABP and who have at least one typical bacterial organism consistent with a CABP pathogen identified from an appropriate microbiological specimen (eg, blood, sputum, or pleural fluid).
