Study Comparing Tigecycline Versus Ceftriaxone Sodium Plus Metronidazole in Complicated Intra-abdominal Infection

Number of Microbiologically Evaluable Patients With a Clinical Response of Cure at Test-of-Cure (TOC) Visit.

The clinical response was assigned by the investigator according to the protocol-specified guidelines. A clinical response of cure was defined as: the test article and the initial intervention (operative and/or radiologically controlled drainage procedure) resolved the intra-abdominal infection.

Time frame: 10-21 days after the last dose of test article

Number of Patients by Microbiologic Response at Test-of-Cure (TOC) Visit.

Microbiologic response assessed at patient level was combined microbiologic responses for all baseline isolates identified in intra-abdominal/blood cultures. Eradication=baseline isolate not recovered from primary infection site/blood; Presumed Eradication=no material available for culture but response was cure; Persistence=baseline isolate recovered from primary infection site/blood; Presumed Persistence=no material available for culture but response was failure; Superinfection=culture from primary infection site was positive for new isolate not identified at baseline \& response was failure.

Time frame: 10-21 days after the last dose of test article
