Abstract

Background: Solithromycin is a 4th generation macrolide antibiotic with potent activity against typical and atypical pathogens that cause community acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP), including ‘macrolide-resistant’ pneumococci and Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mpn). In SOLITAIRE-Oral, a global Phase 3 clinical trial, a 5-day course of oral solithromycin was demonstrated to be non-inferior to a 7-day course of oral moxifloxacin for treatment of community acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) among adult patients with PORT II-IV disease.
