This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, positive control study to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of Meropenem and Pralurbactam compared with Ceftazidime-avibactam in combination with Metronidazole in the treatment of adult complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI).
