a

Percentages for clinical cure rates are calculated as m/n, where m is defined by the number of patients with a favorable clinical response at the test-of-cure visit and n is represented by the combined number of patients with clinical cure, clinical failure, and an indeterminate outcome.

b

Percentages for microbiological cure rates are calculated as m/n, where m is defined by the number of patients with a favorable microbiological response at the test-of-cure visit and n is represented by the combined number of patients with microbiological cure, failure, and an indeterminate outcome.

c

The difference of the favorable clinical cure rate is calculated as CAZ-AVI treatment group minus BAT treatment group.

d

Difference of favorable microbiological responses is calculated as CAZ-AVI treatment group minus BAT treatment group.

e

Two and three patients had polymicrobial infections in the CAZ-AVI and BAT groups, respectively.

f

Includes patients with isolates carrying CTX-M-encoding genes with or without non-ESBL and/or ESBL genes (OXA-1, OXA-10, OXA-9, SHV-11, SHV-12, SHV-5, SHV-1, and TEM-1) (Table 1).

g

Includes patients with isolates with documented overexpression of the intrinsic chromosomal AmpC gene, carrying plasmid AmpC, and/or with multiple non-ESBL and/or ESBL genes (Table 1).

h

Includes KPC (3 isolates)-, VIM (1)-, NDM (2)-, and OXA-48 (2)-encoding genes.

i

Includes KPC (3 isolates)-, VIM (1)-, NDM (1)-, and OXA-48 (1)-encoding genes.

j

One patient had a polymicrobial cUTI (P. aeruginosa and P. stuartii) at the baseline visit.
