TNP-2092 to Treat Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infection

Phase 2, Double-Blind, Randomized, Multicenter, Parallel, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of TNP-2092 to Treat Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infection in Adults

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic characteristics and efficacy of TNP-2092 in adults with ABSSSI suspected or confirmed to be caused by gram-positive pathogens.

This Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, multicenter, parallel, controlled study is conducted to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of TNP-2092, and vancomycin in adults with ABSSSI suspected or confirmed to be caused by gram-positive pathogens. The duration of the treatment period is a minimum of 7 days and a maximum of 14 days.
