ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Culture-Confirmed Bacterial Eradication of Neisseria Gonorrhoeae (NG) From the Urogenital Site at the Test-Of-Cure (TOC) Visit (Day 4 to 8)Baseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Urogenital specimens were obtained for bacteriological culture at the Baseline (Day 1) and TOC (Day 4 to 8) visits and were compared to determine microbiological outcome. Microbiological success was defined as culture-confirmed elimination of baseline pathogen (NG) from a bacteriology sample taken at the TOC visit without the participant receiving other systemic antimicrobials before this visit. Microbiological failure was categorized as "Bacterial Persistence (BP)" and "Unable to Determine (UTD)" outcomes. Bacterial persistence was defined as culture-confirmed persistence of baseline NG pathogen from a bacteriology sample taken at the TOC visit without the participant receiving other systemic antimicrobials before this visit. UTD was defined as inability to determine the TOC NG pathogen outcome (e.g., no bacteriological sample taken for culture, sample lost, visit did not occur etc.) or the participant received other systemic antimicrobials before the TOC visit.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Culture-Confirmed Bacterial Eradication of NG From the Rectal Site at the TOC VisitBaseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Rectal specimens were obtained for bacteriological culture at the Baseline (Day 1) and TOC (Day 4 to 8) visits and were compared to determine microbiological outcome. Microbiological success was defined as culture-confirmed elimination of baseline pathogen (NG) from a bacteriology sample taken at the TOC visit without the participant receiving other systemic antimicrobials before this visit. Microbiological failure was categorized as "Bacterial Persistence (BP)" and "Unable to Determine (UTD)" outcomes. Bacterial persistence was defined as culture-confirmed persistence of baseline NG pathogen from a bacteriology sample taken at the TOC visit without the participant receiving other systemic antimicrobials before this visit. UTD was defined as inability to determine the TOC NG pathogen outcome (e.g., no bacteriological sample taken for culture, sample lost, visit did not occur etc.) or the participant received other systemic antimicrobials before the TOC visit.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Culture-Confirmed Bacterial Eradication of NG From the Pharyngeal Site at the TOC VisitBaseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Pharyngeal specimens were obtained for bacteriological culture at the Baseline (Day 1) and TOC (Day 4 to 8) visits and were compared to determine microbiological outcome. Microbiological success was defined as culture-confirmed elimination of baseline pathogen (NG) from a bacteriology sample taken at the TOC visit without the participant receiving other systemic antimicrobials before this visit. Microbiological failure was categorized as "Bacterial Persistence (BP)" and "Unable to Determine (UTD)" outcomes. Bacterial persistence was defined as culture-confirmed persistence of baseline NG pathogen from a bacteriology sample taken at the TOC visit without the participant receiving other systemic antimicrobials before this visit. UTD was defined as inability to determine the TOC NG pathogen outcome (e.g., no bacteriological sample taken for culture, sample lost, visit did not occur etc.) or the participant received other systemic antimicrobials before the TOC visit.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Any Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Any Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Up to 21 days
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of a study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. A TEAE is an event that emerges during treatment having been absent pretreatment or worsens relative to the pretreatment state. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death; was life threatening; required hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; resulted in disability/incapacity; was a congenital anomaly/birth defect.
SecondaryChange From Baseline (CFB) in Hematology Parameters: Basophils, Eosinophil, Leukocytes, Neutrophils, Platelets, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Neutrophils and Nucleated ErythrocytesBaseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Blood samples were collected for the assessment of change from baseline in hematology parameters: basophils, eosinophil, leukocytes, neutrophils, platelets, lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils and nucleated erythrocytes. Baseline (Day 1) was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hematology Parameters: Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) and Hemoglobin (Hb)Baseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Blood samples were collected for the assessment of change from baseline in hematology parameters: mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration and hemoglobin. Baseline (Day 1) was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hematology Parameter: HematocritBaseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Blood samples were collected for the assessment of change from baseline in hematology parameter: hematocrit. Baseline (Day 1) was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hematology Parameter: ErythrocytesBaseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Blood samples were collected for the assessment of change from baseline in hematology parameter: red blood cell (RBC) count. Baseline (Day 1) was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hematology Parameter: Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH)Baseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Blood samples were collected for the assessment of change from baseline in hematology parameter: mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH). Baseline (Day 1) was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hematology Parameter: Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV)Baseline (Day 1) and TOC visit (Day 4 to 8)
Blood samples were collected for the assessment of change from baseline in hematology parameter: mean corpuscular volume (MCV). Baseline (Day 1) was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits.
