Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
APACHE II Severity of Disease Score on Day 15 or on the Day of Discharge (Whichever is Earlier)
up to Day 15

The APACHE II ("Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation II") is a severity-of-disease classification system. An integer score from 0 to 71 is computed based on several measurements; higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death. In practice, it is rare for any participant to accumulate more than 55 points. APACHE II score was measured on Day 15 or on the day of discharge (whichever was earlier). Participants who died on Day 15 or earlier were assigned the highest observed APACHE II score of any of the participants at any time during the trial (worst case imputation for deaths). Missing data values of the parameters required for the derivation of the APACHE II score were replaced by the last available assessment.

Secondary Endpoints
Serum C-reactive Protein (CRP) Levels
Days 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 15
Clinical Status Over Time
Baseline, days 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27 and 29
Number of Participants Not Requiring Mechanical Ventilation for Survival
Until Day 15 (Assessments on Days 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 15) and until Day 29 (Assessments on Days 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27 and 29)
