Percentages were calculated using N as the denominator, where N was the number of patients with the specified pathogens. If both a urine and blood sample had the same pathogen at baseline, eradication was defined as the baseline bacterial pathogen was reduced to <104 colony-forming unit/mL on urine culture and was negative on repeat blood culture.
Abbreviations: PIP-TAZ, piperacillin-tazobactam; ZTI-01, fosfomycin for injection.
aPulsed-field gel electrophoresis was performed to molecularly type all baseline and test-of-cure pathogens (both treatment arms), in order to confirm microbiological eradication/persistence; a total of 20 postbaseline pathogens were identified as unique, unrelated strains compared to baseline.
