The efficacy of ZINFORO® (ceftaroline fosamil) was confirmed in patients with CAP in a real-world setting.


Clinical success in selected subgroups of the CAPTURE study7,8,*
 

 

High rates of overall clinical success were observed across various real-world patient subgroups.7,8,*​​​​​​​​​


*CAPTURE was a retrospective cohort study relating to the current treatment practice in the United States. In CAPTURE, ‘clinical success’ was defined as a clinical cure with no further need for antibiotic therapy or clinical improvement with a switch to oral agents at the end of ZINFORO® (ceftaroline fosamil) treatment. As CAPTURE is a retrospective chart review study, it has the limitations inherent to this study design.7,8
