Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Informed consent obtained
  2. Male or female ≥18 years of age
  3. If female of childbearing potential, willing to practice reliable birth control measures and documented negative pregnancy test
  4. Skin and skin structure infections of a complicated nature that require intravenous antibiotic treatment
  5. Gram-positive infecting pathogen
  6. Physician determination that vancomycin would be the initial treatment of choice
  7. At least three clinical signs and symptoms associated with the cSSSI:

  4. Conditions where required surgery (in and of itself) constitutes curative treatment of the infection (e.g., amputation);
  5. Necrotizing infections or concomitant gangrene;
  6. Myositis with or without skin and skin structure infections;
  7. Hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis;
  8. BMI ≥40 kg/m2;

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
multicenter, randomized (1:1), semi-single blind study comparing the safety and efficacy of HDSD daptomycin (10 mg/kg q24h for 4 days) with that of comparator (vancomycin +/- SSP for 7-14 days) in patients with cSSSI due to Gram-positive bacteria. Patients will be randomized on a 1:1 basis to receive either daptomycin 10 mg/kg i.v. q24h for 4 days or vancomycin 1 g. q12h for up to 14 days.
