Dose-Ranging Study of GSK2140944 in the Treatment of Subjects With Suspected or Confirmed Gram-Positive Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections

Summary

GSK2140944 belongs to a novel structural class of antibiotics - Bacterial Type II Topoisomerase Inhibitors (BTI). This is a Phase II, randomized, two-part, multicenter study designed to select the optimal dose by further characterizing the safety, tolerability and PK of GSK 2140944 and by evaluating efficacy in subjects requiring in-patient medical care to treat their suspected or confirmed Gram-positive acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI). The selected dose will be used in future studies.
