About ATLAS 1 and ATLAS 2 Clinical Studies

The telavancin NDA is based on data from two large, multinational, double-blind, randomized Phase 3 clinical studies designed to compare the efficacy and safety of telavancin (10 mg/kg IV once daily) versus vancomycin (1 gm IV q 12hr) in the treatment of cSSSI caused by Gram-positive bacteria. In both of these studies (ATLAS 1 and ATLAS 2), which enrolled and treated 1,867 patients in total, 719 of whom had infections with MRSA, telavancin achieved its primary endpoint of non-inferiority relative to the standard of care, vancomycin. The safety profile of telavancin in these studies was compatible with treatment of patients with serious infections.
