Clinical Details
Official title: A Phase 2 Randomized, Double-Blind, Double-Dummy Efficacy, Safety And Tolerability Study Of Iv Sulopenem With Switch To Oral PF-03709270 Compared To Ceftriaxone With Step Down To Amoxicillin/Clavulanate Potassium (Augmentin) In Subjects With Community Acquired Pneumonia (Cap) Requiring Hospitalization
Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Primary outcome: clinical response at the test of cure visit
Secondary outcome: clinical response at end of treatment and follow-up visit;microbiological response at test of cure visit change in Community acquired pneumonia symptom questionnaire. Safety and tolerability will be measured by adverse event (AE) reporting including mortality, vital signs, physical examinations and safety laboratory results Population pharmacokinetics healthcare resource utilization
