Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Doripenem
Treatment: Drugs - Imipenem-Cilastatin
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Experimental: Doripenem - Doripenem from Days 1 to 7 and imipenem-cilastatin placebo from Days 1 to 10

Active Comparator: Imipenem-Cilastatin - Imipenem-Cilastatin Days 1 to 10 and doripenem placebo from Days 1 to 7


Treatment: Drugs: Doripenem
Type=exact number, number=1, unit=g, form=solution for injection, route=intravenously. 1 gram 4-hour infusion of doripenem will be administered every 8 hours for 7 days.

Treatment: Drugs: Imipenem-Cilastatin
Type=exact number, number=1, unit=g, form=solution for injection, route=intravenously. 1 gram 1-hour infusion of imipenem-cilastatin will be administered every 8 hours for 10 days.

Treatment: Drugs: Placebo
Form=solution, route=intravenous. Doripenem pacebo will be administered from Days 1 to 7 in imipenem-cilastatin arm and imipenem-cilastatin placebo will be administered in doripenem arm.
