Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Clinical Response in the ITT Population [Day 4 from start of drug administration]

    The primary efficacy endpoint was clinical response (response, non-response, or indeterminate) at Day 4, tested in the ITT population. Clinical response was determined programmatically using the investigator's assessment of CABP symptoms entered into the eCRF. The severity of the subject CABP symptoms of dyspnea (shortness of breath), cough, production of purulent sputum, and pleuritic chest pain were evaluated on a 4-point scale (absent, mild, moderate, or severe) based upon the CABP Symptom Severity Guidance

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Clinical Response in the Micro-ITT Population [Day 4 from start of drug administration]

    Clinical response (response, non-response, or indeterminate) at Day 4 was also tested in the micro-ITT population as a secondary efficacy endpoint. Clinical response was determined programmatically using the investigator's assessment of CABP symptoms entered into the eCRF. The severity of the subject CABP symptoms of dyspnea (shortness of breath), cough, production of purulent sputum, and pleuritic chest pain were evaluated on a 4-point scale (absent, mild, moderate, or severe) based upon the CABP Symptom Severity Guidance

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details 2 subjects withdrew consent prior to receiving study drug and 7 subjects whose PK results showed no detectable level of either nafithromycin or moxifloxacin hence 9 subjects excluded from the Safety population.

Title Clinical Response in the ITT Population
Description The primary efficacy endpoint was clinical response (response, non-response, or indeterminate) at Day 4, tested in the ITT population. Clinical response was determined programmatically using the investigator's assessment of CABP symptoms entered into the eCRF. The severity of the subject CABP symptoms of dyspnea (shortness of breath), cough, production of purulent sputum, and pleuritic chest pain were evaluated on a 4-point scale (absent, mild, moderate, or severe) based upon the CABP Symptom Severity Guidance
Time Frame Day 4 from start of drug administration
