SecondaryInvestigator's Assessment of Clinical Success at the Post Treatment Evaluation VisitPost-Treatment Evaluation (7-14 days after the End of Therapy)
Clinical success defined as resolution/near resolution of most disease-specific signs and symptoms, absence/near resolution of systemic signs of infection, if present at baseline, no new signs, symptoms, or complications attributable to the ABSSSIs so no further antibiotic therapy was required for the treatment of the primary lesion.
SecondaryTo Compare the Investigator's Assessment of Clinical Success at the Post Treatment Evaluation Visit in the Clinically Evaluable-Post Treatment Evaluation Analysis SetPost-Treatment Evaluation (7-14 days after the End of Therapy)
Clinical success defined as resolution/near resolution of most disease-specific signs and symptoms, absence/near resolution of systemic signs of infection, no new signs, symptoms, or complications attributable to the ABSSSIs so no further antibiotic therapy was required for the treatment of the primary lesion.
