Post Hoc Assessment of Time to Clinical Response Among Adults Hospitalized with Community-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia Who Received Either Lefamulin or Moxifloxacin in 2 Phase III Randomized, Double-Blind, Double-Dummy Clinical Trials
Abstract
Abstract Time to clinical response, a proxy for hospital “discharge readiness,” was compared between CABP inpatients who received lefamulin or moxifloxacin in the Lefamulin Evaluation Against Pneumonia (LEAP) trials. The analysis included 926 inpatients. A short and comparable median time to clinical response (4 days) was observed in both treatment groups.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design.
