a

Based on a dose of 400 mg moxifloxacin (both groups) and 600 mg rifampicin (Group MFX+RIF). MFX: moxifloxacin; RIF: rifampicin; AUC0-24h: 24-h area under the concentration-time curve; Cmax: peak observed concentration; Tmax: time when Cmax occurs; GMR: geometric mean ratio (Group MFX+RIF/MFX).

b

Geometric standard deviations.

c

Expressed in median and interquartile range instead of means and standard deviation.

d

Expressed in n (%) instead of means and includes all patients, n = 51.
