Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: (1) Has received 1 or more dose(s) of a potentially effective systemic antibacterial treatment within the 72 hours prior to the first dose of test article (a subject will be considered to have received a potentially effective systemic antibacterial treatment if the pathogen identified as causing infection is shown to be susceptible to the antibacterial given or, in the circumstance where a pathogen is not identified, if the antibacterial agent is approved for treatment of pneumonia or is known to have activity against any of the leading causes of CABP. EXCEPTION: Subjects may be eligible despite prior antibacterial therapy if they have been treated with a single dose of a short-acting antibacterial (ie, an antibacterial whose standard dosing regimen is more frequent than once per day); (2) Is known or suspected to have CABP caused by a pathogen that may be resistant to either test article (eg, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pneumocystis jiroveci, obligate anaerobes, mycobacteria, fungal pathogens); (3) Suspected or confirmed empyema (a parapneumonic pleural effusion is not an exclusion criteria) or lung abscess; (4) Subjects with known or suspected hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) or healthcare-associated pneumonia (HCAP). HAP is defined as pneumonia with onset of clinical signs and symptoms ≥ 48 hours after hospitalization in an acute in-subject health care facility. HCAP is defined as pneumonia acquired in a long-term care or subacute/intermediate healthcare facility (eg, nursing home) or in a subject admitted with pneumonia following a recent hospitalization (discharged within 90 days of current admission and previously hospitalized for ≥ 48 hours); (5) Has known or is clinically suspected to have 1 or more of the following prior to randomization: (a) alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥ 2 × Upper Limit of Normal (ULN), (b) total bilirubin > 1.5 × ULN, or (c) evidence of end-stage liver disease (eg, ascites, hepatic encephalopathy); (6) Has a known history of having experienced unstable cardiac disease (eg, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmia, etc.) within the 3 months prior to Screening; (7) Are diagnosed with long corrected QT interval (QTc) syndrome, use drugs of potential proarrhythmic or QTc prolonging effect, and/or present with tachyarrhythmia; (8) Requires any form of dialysis (eg, hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis); (9) History or evidence of severe renal disease or is known to have a calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) of < 30 mL/minute, using the Cockcroft-Gault equation; (10) Evidence of significant immunological disease determined by any of the following: (a) Current or anticipated neutropenia defined as < 500 neutrophils/mm3; (b) Infection with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and a cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) count < 200 cells/mm3, or another Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-defining illness; (c) The receipt of cancer chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or potent, non-corticosteroid immunosuppressant drugs (eg, cyclosporine, azathioprine, tacrolimus, immune-modulating monoclonal antibody therapy, etc.) within the past 3 months, or the receipt of corticosteroids equivalent to or greater than 40 mg of prednisone per day or for more than 14 days in the prior 30 days; (11) Requires acute pharmacologic intervention to stabilize blood pressure (BP) and
