Groups2

Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1IMI/REL
Imipenem/cilastatin/relebactam (IMI/REL) was administered intravenously (IV) as a fixed-dose combination (FDC) at a dosage of 500 mg IMI/250 mg REL, once every 6 hours for a minimum 7 days, up to 14 days. At the start of IMI/REL treatment, participants were treated empirically with 600 mg open-label linezolid administered IV every 12 hours until methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was ruled out. Participants with confirmed MRSA infection continued to receive 600 mg linezolid every 12 hours for a minimum of 7 days, up to 14 days total.

Group 2PIP/TAZ
Piperacillin/tazobactam (PIP/TAZ) was administered IV as a FDC at a dosage of 4000 mg PIP/500 mg TAZ once every 6 hours for a minimum 7 days, up to 14 days. At the start of PIP/TAZ treatment, participants were treated empirically with 600 mg open-label linezolid administered IV every 12 hours until methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is ruled out. Participants with confirmed MRSA infection continued to receive 600 mg linezolid every 12 hours for a minimum of 7 days, up to 14 days total.
