Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of Participants With Composite Response of Microbiological Eradication and Clinical Response at Test of Cure
The primary efficacy endpoint was the composite outcome of clinical response and microbiological response at the test of cure assessment, defined as 7 days (±2 days) after the end of antibiotic treatment. Clinical response was based on the investigator's evaluation of the participant's clinical signs and symptoms, with response defined as resolution or improvement of complicated urinary tract infection symptoms present at study entry and the absence of new symptoms. Microbiological outcome was based on quantitative microbiological urine cultures, with eradication defined as the bacterial pathogen found at study entry at \> 1 × 10⁵ CFU/mL reduced to 1 × 10⁴ CFU/mL or less.
Test of cure (TOC; 7 days after end of treatment [EOT], equivalent to Study Day 14 to 21)

Study Arms (2)
Cefiderocol
EXPERIMENTALParticipants received 2 g cefiderocol by intravenous injection once every 8 hours for 7 to 14 days.
Imipenem/cilastatin
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants received 1 g each of imipenem/cilastatin by intravenous injection once every 8 hours for 7 to 14 days.
Interventions
2000 mg intravenously every 8 hours for 7 to 14 days; dose adjustments for participants with reduced renal function (estimated CrCl ≤ 70 mL/minute) and/or body weight (\< 70 kg) included every 6-hour dosing intervals and/or reduced doses.
1000 mg of each intravenously every 8 hours for 7 to 14 days; dose adjustments for participants with reduced renal function (estimated CrCl ≤ 70 mL/minute) and/or body weight (\< 70 kg) included every 6-hour dosing intervals and/or reduced doses.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Hospitalized male and female patients ≥ 18 years
- Clinical diagnosis of either complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) with or without pyelonephritis or acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis
- cUTI diagnosed with a history of ≥ 1 of the following:
- Indwelling urinary catheter or recent instrumentation of the urinary tract
- Urinary retention (caused by benign prostatic hypertrophy)
- Urinary retention of at least 100 mL or more of residual urine after voiding (neurogenic bladder)
- Obstructive uropathy
- Azotemia caused by intrinsic renal disease (blood urea nitrogen and creatinine values greater than normal laboratory values) OR Pyelonephritis and normal urinary tract anatomy, ie, acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis AND
- At least 2 of the following signs or symptoms:
- Chills or rigors or warmth associated with fever (temperature greater than or equal to 38 degrees Celsius)
- Flank pain (pyelonephritis) or suprapubic/pelvic pain (cUTI)
- Nausea or vomiting
- Dysuria, urinary frequency, or urinary urgency
- Costo-vertebral angle tenderness on physical examination AND
- All subjects had to have urinalysis evidence of pyuria demonstrated by 1 of the following:
- +5 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Urine culture identifies only a Gram-positive pathogen and/or a Gram-negative uropathogen resistant to IPM
- Urine culture at study entry isolates more than 2 uropathogens or patient has a confirmed fungal UTI
- Asymptomatic bacteriuria, the presence of \>10\^5 CFU/mL of a uropathogen and pyuria but without local or systemic symptoms
- Patient is receiving hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis
