In vitro activity of ceftobiprole against pathogens from two phase 3 clinical trials of complicated skin and skin structure infections.

In phase 3 clinical trials for ceftobiprole treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infections, 1,219 gram-positive and 276 gram-negative aerobic baseline pathogens were identified. Ceftobiprole inhibited all staphylococcal isolates, including methicillin-resistant strains, at MICs of
