ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2005

434 participants

Abstract

To compare the efficacy and safety of IV tigecycline to IV levofloxacin in the treatment of subjects with CAP requiring hospitalization.

Conditions: Community-Acquired Infections, Bacterial Pneumonia, Cross Infection.

Primary outcome: Clinical response in the clinically evaluable population and the clinical modified intent-to-treat population at the TOC visit.; Determine whether tigecycline is noninferior to levofloxacin..

Enrollment: 434 participants.

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. Reported size: 434 participants or records.
