Brief Summary  

This trial is a phase III, prospective, randomized, double blind, double dummy, active controlled, comparative, parallel group, multicenter clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Tedizolid Tablets 200 mg versus Linezolid Tablets 600 mg in adult patients for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI).

 

Patients who are willing and able to participate in the study will sign and date the Informed Consent Form on the day of screening / baseline visit (Visit 1). During this screening period, patients who are willing to give consent will be evaluated for all the eligibility criteria. Eligible patients aged between 18 to 65 years (both inclusive) with qualifying acute bacterial skin & skin structure infections (ABSSSI) confirmed to be due to gram positive pathogens will be considered for the study.

 

After confirming the inclusion/exclusion criteria the subject will be randomized and provided with study drug at randomization visit. Subjects will be provided with a diary at randomization visit, which need to be brought along with in each subsequent visit till the last visit. Follow up visits will be done on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 7, Day 11+2 (End of treatment visit), Post treatment evaluation (PTE) visit (7 to 14 days after the EOT visit / Day 18 to Day 25) and End of the study (EOS) visit or Late follow up (LFU) visit (18 to 25 days after the EOT visit / Day 29 to 36) to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability.

 

Patients will be assigned to either of the two arms i.e., Arm A or Arm B consisting of Tedizolid Tablets 200 mg (Patients will be advised to take one Tablet of Tedizolid Tablets 200 mg plus one Tablet of Placebo followed 12 hours later by one Tablet of Placebo from day 1 to day 6, and 3 Tablets of Placebo from day 7 to day 10) or Linezolid Tablets 600 mg (Patients will be advised to take one Tablet of Linezolid Tablets 600 mg plus one Tablet of Placebo followed 12 hours later by one Tablet of Linezolid Tablets 600 mg from day 1 to day 10).
