An international, multi-centre, prospective three arm parallel-group, phase II proof of concept study comparing the efficacy and safety of two dosage regimens (BID 7 days and TID 7 days) of TD1414 2% cream and one dosage regimen (BID 7 days) of Bactroban® (mupirocin) 2% cream in adults and children down to 2 years of age with impetigo or SITL. Furthermore an evaluation of the pharmacokinetics of TD1414 2% cream TID for 7 days will be performed. A total of 664 patients will be enrolled in a stepwise manner according to age groups starting with the oldest age group.

Participants With Clinical Cure According to Investigator's Assessment
At end of treatment (Day 8), the participants had their impetigo/Secondarily Infected Traumatic Lesions (SITL) evaluated by the (sub)investigator. Investigator's assessment of severity of infections (SIRS). * Exudates/pus * Crusting * Erythema * Oedema * Tissue Warmth * Itching * Pain Each sign/symptoms of infection was assessed by use of the following 4-point scale: * 0 = absent * 2 = mild * 4 = moderate * 6 = severe The scores were summed up to a total SIRS score. Clinical cure was either of the following: * Total absence of signs and symptoms of impetigo/SITL OR * Improvement - total SIRS score reduced to \<8 and all individual clinical signs/symptoms included in the SIRS score should have been ≤4. Clinical failure was either of the following: * Signs and symptoms of impetigo/SITL that did not meet the definition of clinical cure * Unable to determine (e.g. participants who refuse clinical examination or did not show at end of treatment or follow-up).
Time frame: At end of treatment (Day 8)
Participants With Clinical Cure According to Investigator's Assessment
At follow up (Day 15), the participants had their impetigo/SITL evaluated by the (sub)investigator.
Time frame: At follow up (Day 15)
Participants With Clinical Cure According to Investigator's Assessment.
At end of treatment (Day 8) and at follow-up (Day 15), the participants had their impetigo/SITL evaluated by the (sub)investigator.
Time frame: At end of treatment (Day 8) and follow-up (Day 15)
Participants With Bacteriological Cure According to Bacteriological Samples
At baseline (Day 1), end of treatment (EOT), and follow-up (FU), the investigator obtained a bacteriological sample to base the assessment on. Bacteriological cure was either of the following: * Eradication of the baseline pathogen. * Presumed eradication of the baseline pathogen * Infection with a pathogen different from the baseline pathogen at EOT or FU and the participant was NOT symptomatic. Bacteriological failure was any of the following: * Documented lack of eradication of the baseline pathogen. * Documented relapse (re-infection) with the baseline pathogen * Documented super-infection, i.e. infection with a pathogen different from the baseline pathogen at EOT or FU, and the participants was symptomatic * Presumed persistence of baseline pathogen: Non-evaluable participants- participants who refused bacteriological examination or did not show at EOT or FU, and clinical failures who had no bacteriological sample to rule out bacterial infection.
Time frame: At end of treatment (Day 8), follow-up (Day 15) and end of treatment and follow-up
Participants With Clinical and Bacteriological Cure According to Investigator's Assessment and Bacteriological Samples
At end of treatment (Day 8) and at follow-up (Day 15) the participants had their impetigo/SITL evaluated by the (sub)investigator. At baseline (Day 1), end of treatment (Day 8) and at follow-up (Day 15) the investigator obtained a bacteriological sample on which an assessment of bacteriological cure was based.
Time frame: At end of treatment (Day 8), follow-up (Day 15) and end of treatment and follow-up
Participants With Clinical Cure According to Investigator's Assessment
At Day 4 the participants had their impetigo/SITL evaluated by the (sub)investigator.
Time frame: At Day 4
