Efficacy and Safety of CAZ-AVI in the Treatment of Infections Due to Carbapenem-resistant G- Pathogens in Chinese Adults

Clinical cure: improvement in baseline signs and symptoms such that no further antimicrobial treatment was required for index infection (i.e. cIAI, cUTI, HAP/VAP or BSI) after study treatment. Also, for cIAI participants, no unplanned drainage or surgical intervention was necessary since initial procedure. 95% CI based on Jeffrey's method. ME analysis set (sub-set of mMITT): participants who received 3 days of study intervention, or received study intervention for >=48 hours with >= 80% compliance, or for <48 hours before discontinuation due to adverse event, no concomitant antibiotics against baseline carbapenem-resistant gram negative pathogens between first dose and TOC (excluding participants with failed study therapy requiring additional antibiotics), had baseline organisms genetically confirmed by central microbiological testing, no indeterminate clinical outcome at end of treatment (EOT) or TOC visits, no important protocol deviations that affect assessment of efficacy.

Clinical cure was defined as improvement in baseline signs and symptoms such that no further antimicrobial treatment was required for the index infection (i.e., cIAI, cUTI, HAP/VAP or BSI) after study treatment. Also, for cIAI participants, no unplanned drainage or surgical intervention was necessary since the initial procedure. The clinical response was assessed by the independent adjudication committee. 95% CI was calculated using Jeffrey's method.

Favorable microbiological response was defined as eradication or presumed eradication. Eradication was defined as absence (or urine quantification <10^3 colony forming units per milliliter [CFU/mL] for cUTI participants) of causative pathogen from an appropriately obtained specimen at the site of infection. Presumed eradication was defined as repeat culture of specimens were not performed/ clinically indicated in a participant who had a clinical response of cure (specific to cIAI and HAP/VAP participants). 95% CI was calculated using Jeffrey's method.

Percentage of participants who died due to any cause up to Day 28 was reported in this outcome measure. The 95% CI was calculated using the Jeffrey's method.

An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. Treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was any AE that started after the study intervention start date and time.

Number of participants who discontinued the study due to adverse events were reported in this outcome measure. Discontinuations from study due to TEAEs included all participants with an AE record indicating that the AE caused permanent discontinuation from the study. Permanent discontinuations from any study intervention due to TEAEs included participants with an AE record indicating that action taken with study treatment was drug withdrawn but AE did not cause the participant to be discontinued from study.
