MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)Baseline up to End of Treatment (EOT) (Day 10 up to 28)Any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study treatment was considered an AE without regard to possibility of causal relationship.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Clinical ResponseEOT (Day 10 up to 28)Clinical response assessed by Investigator at EOT visit as Cure: complete resolution of signs or symptoms of infection and no need to start another antibiotic. Improvement: incomplete resolution of signs or symptoms of infection but no need to start another antibiotic. Failure: death, or need to start another antibiotic. For participants previously assessed as failures, the outcome was failure at subsequent time points.
