Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Microbiological response of Microbiologically Evaluable (ME) at Test of Cure (TOC) [ Time Frame: 5 to 11 days after last dose of study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The number and percentage of subjects in each treatment group recorded as having a favorable microbiological response in the ME Population at Test-of-Cure (TOC)

  • Evaluate safety [ Time Frame: from administration of first dose of study drug to the Late -Follow -Up (LFU) visit (28 to 42 days after administration of the last dose of study drug) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Evaluate the safety of coadministered IV ceftaroline fosamil and NXL104 in subjects with cUTI. Summaries of AEs, SAEs, deaths, laboratory evaluations (hematology and coagulation studies, comprehensive metabolic panel, and urinalysis), vital signs, ECGs, and physical examinations will be provided for each treatment group.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Clinical response in CE at Test of Cure [ Time Frame: 5 to 11 days after last dose of study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The number and percentage of subjects in each treatment group classified as clinical cure Clinically Evaluable (CE) Population at TOC
