Registered outcomes7

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryArea Under the Curve From Time Zero to 72 Hours (AUC72Hours)Predose/0 to 72 HoursAUC72 = Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero (pre-dose) to 72 hours.
SecondaryArea Under the Curve From Time Zero to Extrapolated Infinite Time (AUC Inf)Predose/0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48, 72 hours post-dose
AUCinf = AUClast + (Clast\* divided by kel), where AUClast is calculated by Linear-Log trapezoidal method, Clast\* is the predicted serum concentration at the last quantifiable time point estimated from the log-linear regression analysis and kel is the terminal phase rate constant calculated by a linear regression of the log-linear concentration-time curve.
SecondaryMaximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of AzithromycinPredose/0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48, 72 hours post-dose
SecondaryTime to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) and Plasma Decay Half Life (t1/2) of AzithromycinPredose/0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48, 72 hours post-dosePlasma decay half-life is the time measured for the plasma concentration to decrease by one-half.
SecondarySerum Concentrations of Azithromycin ER (Test) and Azithromycin IR (Reference)1,2,3,4,8,24,48,72 hours postdose
SecondaryNumber of Participants With a Clinical ResponseDays 7,8,9 or 10
Clinical response was assesed between Days 7 and 10, or when subjects discontinued the study prematurely (if applicable). Response was assessed by the investigator as cure or failure. Cure = Clinical signs and symptoms related to the acute illness have resolved, or clinical improvement is such that no additional therapy is necessary. Failure = One or more of the following: * Signs and symptoms related to the acute illness have persisted or worsened and additional therapy is necessary; * New clinical signs and symptoms of acute illness have developed and additional therapy is necessary
SecondaryAdverse Events (AEs) and Serious AEs (SAEs)Baseline up to 28 daysAll observed or volunteered AEs and SAEs regardless of treatment group or suspected causal relationship to the investigational product(s) was reported.
