This was the primary outcome measure for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The primary objective was to demonstrate the non-inferiority (NI) of eravacycline to levofloxacin in responder outcome, which was derived from both clinical and microbiological responses, in the micro-ITT population. Clinical responses were either cure, failure, or indeterminate/missing; microbiological responses were characterized programmatically as either success, failure, or indeterminate/missing. Clinical cure was defined as complete resolution or significant improvement of signs or symptoms of the infection; microbiological success was a reduction of the baseline pathogen(s) to <10^4 colony-forming units/milliliter (CFU/mL). An outcome of Responder required a clinical response of cure and a microbiological response of success. Any other combination of the clinical and microbiological responses was considered either Non-responder or Indeterminate.

micro-ITT included all participants in the ITT population who had at least 1 baseline bacterial pathogen from a urine or blood culture that caused a urinary tract infection (UTI) against which eravacycline had expected antibacterial activity. ITT included all randomized participants, regardless of receiving study drug or not.

This outcome measure (FDA and the European Medicines Agency [EMA]) compared the microbiological responses of eravacycline to levofloxacin for both treatment groups in the micro-MITT population. Responses were success, failure, or indeterminate/missing. Success was considered a reduction of the baseline pathogen(s) to <10^4 CFU/mL. Failure required blood cultures at or beyond end of therapy (EOT) to be positive for baseline pathogen(s), or urine culture to grow ≥10^4 CFU/mL of the baseline pathogen(s). Indeterminate/missing indicated no interpretable culture data available.

micro-MITT included all micro-ITT participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug. micro-ITT: all ITT participants with ≥1 baseline bacterial pathogen from a urine or blood culture that caused a UTI against which eravacycline had expected antibacterial activity. ITT: all randomized participants, regardless of receiving study drug or not.

This outcome measure (FDA and EMA) compared the microbiological responses of eravacycline to levofloxacin for both treatment groups in the ME population. Responses were either success or failure. Indeterminate/missing responses were not included. Success was considered a reduction of the baseline pathogen(s) to <10^4 CFU/mL. Failure required blood cultures at or beyond EOT to be positive for baseline pathogen(s), or urine culture to grow ≥10^4 CFU/mL of the baseline pathogen(s). Indeterminate/missing indicated no interpretable culture data available. Populations: ME, all micro-ITT and clinically-evaluable (CE) participants with a suitable urine specimen and an interpretable urine culture; micro-ITT, all participants with ≥1 baseline bacterial pathogen from a urine or blood culture that caused a UTI against which eravacycline had expected antibacterial activity; ITT, all randomized participants, regardless of receiving study drug or not.

ME: all micro-ITT and CE participants with a suitable urine specimen and an interpretable urine culture. CE: all randomized participants dosed with no other antimicrobials (unless allowed by protocol), had an investigator clinical response assessment of "success" or "failure" at the assessment visit, and had no other major protocol violations.
