- Number of Participants With Early Clinical Response [ Time Frame: Screening; 48 to 72 hours after the first dose of test article ]Early clinical response is defined as clinical success, which is categorized as survival with at least a 20% reduction of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infection (ABSSSI) primary lesion size compared to Screening measurements, without receiving any rescue antibacterial therapy. An indeterminate classification is used for a response that could not be adequately inferred because the participant was not assessed because they withdrew consent, were lost to follow-up, or other specified reason.
- Number of Participants With the Indicated Investigator Assessment of Clinical Response in the mITT Population at the Post Therapy Evaluation (PTE) Visit [ Time Frame: Screening; 7 to 14 days after the last day of therapy ]At the PTE Visit the investigator indicated one of the following outcomes relating to the primary infection under study: Clinical Success: participant was alive; infection was sufficiently resolved such that further antibacterial therapy was not needed. Participants may have had some residual changes related to infection requiring ancillary treatment. Clinical Failure was defined as meeting any of the following criteria: infection required additional treatment with alternative antibacterial therapy; participant received antibacterial therapy between the End-of-Treatment (EOT) Visit and the PTE Visit that may have been effective for the infection under study for a different infection from the one under study; unplanned major surgical intervention for the infection under study between the EOT and PTE Visits; participant died before evaluation; other specified reason. Indeterminate The clinical response to test article could not be adequately inferred.
- Number of Participants With the Indicated Investigator Assessment of Clinical Response in the Clinically Evaluable-Post Therapy Evaluation (CE-PTE) Population [ Time Frame: Screening; 7 to 14 days after the last day of therapy ]At the PTE Visit the investigator indicated one of the following outcomes relating to the primary infection under study: Clinical Success: participant was alive; infection was sufficiently resolved such that further antibacterial therapy was not needed. Participants may have had some residual changes related to infection requiring ancillary treatment. Clinical Failure was defined as meeting any of the following criteria: infection required additional treatment with alternative antibacterial therapy; participant received antibacterial therapy between the EOT Visit and the PTE Visit that may have been effective for the infection under study for a different infection from the one under study; unplanned major surgical intervention for the infection under study between the EOT and PTE Visits; participant died before evaluation; other specified reason.
