ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Cure, Defined as Absence of Clinical Failure, in the Evaluable Population.Test of cure (TOC) (7-10 days after completion of therapy)
Clinical failure is defined as the occurence of any of the following: 1. Lack of resolution at the Test of Cure (TOC) visit in any or all of the following: erythema, tenderness, purulent drainage, swelling, and local warmth. Erythema or tenderness that was considered due the surgical therapy itself (incision and drainage), was not considered to be indicative of clinical failure. 2. Occurrence of a SSTI at another site other than the site(s) under study. 3. Intolerance of study medication or a treatment-limiting adverse reaction necessitating discontinuation of study drug within the first 48 hours. 4. Administration of other antimicrobial therapy for treatment of a SSTI at any time through the TOC visit. 5. Unplanned surgical procedure for the infection under study at any time through the TOC visit. 6. Hospitalization for treatment of active or invasive infection at any time through the TOC visit.

SecondaryNumber of Participants Reporting Adverse Events.End of Treatment (EOT) (48 hours after completion of therapy); Test of Cure (TOC) (7-10 days after completion of therapy); One Month Follow-up Visit (OMFU)
Subjects were issued a Memory Aid to record symptoms for 10 days post product administration. At study visits, the staff reviewed the memory aid and elicited as much information as possible about any reported symptoms. Occurrence of adverse events was solicited in the memory aid and during study visits. Reported symptoms, both solicited and unsolicited, were recorded as Adverse Events.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Reporting Adverse Events That Are Treatment Limiting.End of Treatment (EOT) (48 hours after completion of therapy); Test of Cure (TOC) (7-10 days after completion of therapy); One Month Follow-up Visit (OMFU)
Participants were issued a Memory Aid to record symptoms for 10 days post product administration. At study visits, the staff reviewed the memory aid and elicited as much information as possible about any reported symptoms. Occurrence of adverse events was solicited in the memory aid and during study visits. Reported symptoms, both solicited and unsolicited, were recorded as Adverse Events. For these results, adverse events that resulted in discontinuation of study treatment for the participant were considered treatment limiting.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Cure at the End of Treatment (EOT) Visit for the Evaluable Population.EOT visit within 48 hours of completion of therapyMeasures of clinical cure and clinical failure are the same as those defined for the primary efficacy outcome measure.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Cure at the End of Treatment (EOT) Visit for the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population.EOT visit within 48 hours of completion of therapyMeasures of clinical cure and clinical failure are the same as those defined for the primary efficacy outcome measure.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Cure at the One Month Follow-up (OMFU) Visit for the Evaluable Population.OMFU visit
Measures of clinical cure and clinical failure are the same as those defined for the primary efficacy outcome measure, with one addition. At the OMFU, relapse (the return of the original infection after initial improvement) or recurrence (return of skin infection at original site after cure of original infection) of SSTI was scored as clinical failure.
