Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Ceftaroline fosamil
Treatment: Drugs - Vancomycin
Treatment: Drugs - Aztreonam

Experimental: Ceftaroline fosamil - Patients will receive 600 mg of ceftaroline fosamil administered as a 120-minute intravenous infusion very 8 hours. Each dose will be infused in a volume of 250 mL over 120-minutes followed by aztreonam placebo in a volume of 100 mL infused over 30 minutes every 8 hours. In addition vancomycin placebo will be given in a volume of 250 mL infused over 120 minutes every 12 hours. Doses will be adjusted according to the patient's renal function.

Active comparator: Vancomycin plus aztreonam - Patients will receive combination of vancomycin plus aztreonam. Dose of vancomycin will be based on the patient's actual weight and will receive intravenous vancomycin every 12 hours with each dose infused over 120-minutes. Aztreonam dose will be 1 gram intravenously in a volume of 100 mL infused over 30 minutes every 8 hours. In addition, ceftaroline fosamil placebo will be given in a volume of 250 mL infused over 120 minutes every 8 hours. Doses adjusted according to patients renal function


Treatment: Drugs: Ceftaroline fosamil
IV ceftaroline 600mg every 8 hours

Treatment: Drugs: Vancomycin
IV vancomycin 15mg/kg every 12 hours

Treatment: Drugs: Aztreonam
IV aztreonam 1 g every 8 hours
