Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Hospitalized male and female patients ≥ 18 years

- Clinical diagnosis of either complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) with or
without pyelonephritis or acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis

- cUTI diagnosed with a history of ≥ 1 of the following:

- Indwelling urinary catheter or recent instrumentation of the urinary tract

- Urinary retention (caused by benign prostatic hypertrophy)

- Urinary retention of at least 100 mL or more of residual urine after voiding
(neurogenic bladder)

- Obstructive uropathy

- Azotemia caused by intrinsic renal disease (blood urea nitrogen and creatinine
values greater than normal laboratory values) OR Pyelonephritis and normal
urinary tract anatomy, ie, acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis AND

At least 2 of the following signs or symptoms:

- Chills or rigors or warmth associated with fever (temperature greater than or equal to
38 degrees Celsius)

- Flank pain (pyelonephritis) or suprapubic/pelvic pain (cUTI)

- Nausea or vomiting

- Dysuria, urinary frequency, or urinary urgency

- Costo-vertebral angle tenderness on physical examination AND

All subjects had to have urinalysis evidence of pyuria demonstrated by 1 of the following:

- Dipstick analysis positive for leukocyte esterase

- ≥ 10 white blood cells (WBCs) per μL in unspun urine, or ≥ 10 WBCs per high power
field in spun urine

- Positive urine culture within 48 hours prior to randomization containing ≥10^5
colony forming unit (CFU)/mL of a Gram-negative uropathogen likely to be
susceptible to imipenem (IPM)

- Patients who were treated previously with an empiric antibiotic other than the
study drugs but failed treatment, both clinically and microbiologically, were
eligible for the study if they had an identified Gram-negative uropathogen that
was not susceptible to the previously used empiric treatment and likely to be
susceptible to IPM

- Subjects receiving antibiotic prophylaxis for UTI who present with signs and
symptoms consistent with an active new UTI

Exclusion Criteria:

- Urine culture identifies only a Gram-positive pathogen and/or a Gram-negative
uropathogen resistant to IPM

- Urine culture at study entry isolates more than 2 uropathogens or patient has a
confirmed fungal UTI

- Asymptomatic bacteriuria, the presence of >10^5 CFU/mL of a uropathogen and pyuria but
without local or systemic symptoms

- Patient is receiving hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis
