study 
Number of Patients 
Approximately 100 planned (75 in the dalbavancin treatment group and 25 in the comparator 
treatment group) 
Diagnosis and  
Main Criteria for Inclusion 
Male and female patients who are ≥ 18 years of age that meet the diagnostic criteria for 
osteomyelitis defined as pain or point tenderness upon palpation or probing to bone, and 
either radiological findings consistent with a diagnosis of osteomyelitis or a bone specimen 
with Gram-positive cocci on a baseline Gram-stain, and elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) 
above the upper limit of normal.  
Test Product, Dosage, and Mode of 
Administration 
Dalbavancin 1500 mg intravenous (IV) over 30 ( 5) minutes on Day 1 and Day 8 (if 
creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min or if on regular hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis) 
• Dose reduction if creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min (and not receiving regular 
hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis): dalbavancin 1000 mg IV over 30 ( 5) minutes on 
Day 1 and Day 8 
Duration of Treatment 
Dalbavancin treatment group: 2 doses of dalbavancin: first dose on Day 1 and the second 
dose on Day 8 
Comparator treatment group: 4 to 6 weeks of oral or IV standard of care antibiotic therapy 
All patients will be followed up for a period of 365 days from the start of therapy (ie, Day 1)

Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
Reference Therapy, Dosage, and 
Mode of Administration 
Standard of care antibiotic (oral or IV) for the treatment of osteomyelitis based on the 
judgment of the study physician 
 
Drugs allowed as concomitant medications 
• Aztreonam may be administered at randomization for presumed co-infection with a 
Gram-negative pathogen and can be discontinued if a Gram-negative pathogen is not 
documented by culture results. A switch to an oral antibiotic for coverage of Gram-
negative pathogens is allowed once evidence of clinical improvement has been 
established. 
• Metronidazole (IV or oral) or oral vancomycin may be used for Clostridium difficile 
infections. 
• Other antibiotics that do not achieve significant therapeutic concentrations in the serum 
(eg, nitrofurantoin) may be considered for treatment of other concomitant infections. 
Close consultation with the medical monitor is advised prior to use of these antibiotics. 
Surgical debridement should be performed on any patient if clinically indicated. 
Criteria for Evaluation 
 
Primary Outcome Measure 
The primary efficacy assessment is the clinical response at Day 42 in the Clinically 
Evaluable (CE) Population. 
Clinical response will include assessment of the need for additional antibiotic therapy, 
presence of purulent discharge/drainage, need for amputation due to progression of infection 
or due to vascular insufficiency, death (for any reason), or lost to follow-up. 
Clinical response can be either cure, failure, or indeterminate: 
• Cure is defined as recovery without need for additional antibiotic therapy.  
• Failure is defined as: 
○ Requirement of additional antibiotic therapy for no response or worsening after 
improvement 
○ New purulence 
○ Amputation due to progression of infection (from initiation of study drug to outcome 
assessment visit). 
○ Requiring > 6 weeks of antibiotic therapy for patients in the comparator treatment 
group 
○ Death (for any reason).  
• Indeterminate is defined as: 
○ Lost to follow-up 
○ Amputation due to vascular insufficiency (from initiation of study drug to Day 42). 
Secondary Outcome Measures 
The following secondary efficacy assessments will be made: 
• Clinical improvement at Day 28 in the modified Intent-to-Treat (mITT) and 
CE Populations will be based on an assessment of pain and/or point tenderness compared 
to baseline and assessment of inflammation (as measured by CRP). 
○ Clinical improvement at Day 28 is defined as no worsening of pain from baseline (if 
present at baseline) (subjective pain and/or point tenderness) and improvement in 
inflammation (as measured by CRP). 
• Clinical response at Day 42, Day 180, and Day 365 will be defined as cure, failure or 
indeterminate (see Primary Outcome Measure), for the following populations: 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 42 in the mITT and 
microbiological modified Intent-to-Treat (micro-mITT) Populations 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 180 in the mITT and CE 
Populations 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 365 in the mITT and CE 
Populations 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) by pathogen at Day 42 and Day 180 
in the CE Population

Statistical Methods 
The study is exploratory in nature. Descriptive statistics, including the numbers and 
percentages for categorical variables, and the numbers, means, standard deviations, medians, 
minimums, and maximums for continuous variables will be provided. Listings of individual 
patient’s data will be produced. 
All safety parameters will be analyzed descriptively. Safety analyses will be based on the 
Safety Population, a subset of the ITT Population and includes all randomized patients who 
receive any amount of randomized medication. Efficacy analyses will be based on the mITT, 
micro-mITT and CE Populations, defined as follows: mITT Population is a subset of the ITT 
Population and will include all randomized patients who receive any amount of randomized 
medication and meet the criteria for known or suspected Gram-positive osteomyelitis; micro-
mITT Population is a subset of the mITT Population and will include patients with a Gram-
positive pathogen isolated from blood and/or bone specimen); CE Population is a subset of 
the mITT Population and will include patients who meet both of the following specific 
conditions for evaluability: 1) for patients randomized to receive dalbavancin, received at 
least 1 dose of active study medication. For patients randomized to comparator, received at 
least 2 weeks of study medication; 2) received no more than 1 dose of another (nonstudy) 
systemic antibacterial therapy with documented activity against the causative organism, from 
study drug initiation until the outcome assessment visit, for an indication other than 
osteomyelitis. 
For each efficacy parameter, number and proportion of patients with categories of clinical 
responses will be presented by treatment groups, and the 2-sided 95% CIs for the percentage 
of patients with favorable response will be obtained using the Clopper-Pearson method for 
each treatment group unless stated otherwise. Due to the small sample size of comparator 
treatment group, the between treatment comparison will not be provided.

INTRODUCTION 
7.1 
BACKGROUND 
Osteomyelitis is an infection of bone that can occur as a result of hematogenous seeding (transmitted 
via blood), contiguous spread of infection to bone from adjacent soft tissues and joints (eg, cellulitis, 
septic arthritis), or direct inoculation of infection into the bone as a result of trauma or surgery 
(Fritz and McDonald, 2008). Hematogenous osteomyelitis is usually monomicrobial, while 
osteomyelitis due to contiguous spread or direct inoculation is usually polymicrobial. 
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is the organism most commonly isolated from all forms of 
osteomyelitis (Calhoun 2009). 
Standard treatment for osteomyelitis requires prolonged antibiotic therapy (4 to 6 weeks) and may 
require surgical debridement (removal of infected tissue). Whenever possible, antibiotic therapy 
should be tailored to culture and susceptibility findings. Antimicrobials with activity against the 
most commonly isolated organism, S. aureus, are routinely used. These include anti-staphylococcal 
penicillins (nafcillin/oxacillin), clindamycin, first-generation cephalosporins (cefazolin), and 
vancomycin. With the increasing incidence of community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus 
(MRSA), vancomycin has become the primary choice for therapy when that organism is suspected. 
Vancomycin or clindamycin are used when 10% or more of community S. aureus isolates are known 
to be methicillin resistant (Liu 2011). However, presence of inducible resistance to clindamycin 
limits its use and vancomycin requires careful dose adjustments to maintain appropriate 
concentrations in the blood. Clearly, the seriousness of the condition, with its potential for 
limb-threatening outcomes, strongly suggests a need for the development of additional antimicrobial 
agents.  
7.2 
DALBAVANCIN 
Dalbavancin is a lipoglycopeptide which is highly active against Gram-positive bacteria, including 
streptococci, S. pneumoniae and S. aureus, including MRSA; the minimum inhibitory concentration 
to inhibit the growth of 90% of organisms (MIC90) for S. aureus is 0.06 μg/mL. In addition, 
dalbavancin has a half-life of approximately 14 days, allowing for once weekly dosing. In adults, 
dalbavancin (given as 1000 mg on Day 1 followed by 500 mg on Day 8), has been shown to be 
noninferior both to linezolid alone and to a comparator regimen including vancomycin and linezolid 
in the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI)/complicated skin and 
skin structure infections in multiple randomized, double-blinded studies (VER001-9, DUR001-301 
and DUR001-302). Dalbavancin was well tolerated in these studies, with a higher proportion of 
patients in the comparator group reporting an adverse event (AE) as compared with dalbavancin. 
The most common AEs reported with dalbavancin were gastrointestinal complaints (nausea, 
diarrhea) and headache.

7.3 
PHARMACOKINETICS IN BONE AND RELATED TISSUE 
The pharmacokinetics of dalbavancin in bone and synovial tissue have been studied in a Phase 1 
study in adults undergoing elective orthopedic surgery (DUR001-105). Adults scheduled for elective 
orthopedic surgery were assigned to one of 6 cohorts, for tissue sampling at 12 hours, 24 hours, 
72 hours, 168 hours, 240 hours, or 336 hours postdose. Enrolled patients received a single 1000 mg 
dose of dalbavancin at the appropriate timepoint prior to scheduled surgery. Thirty-one patients 
received dalbavancin in order to obtain 30 evaluable bone samples. The mean concentration of 
dalbavancin in bone at 12 hours post dose was 6.3 ± 3.2 μg/g, and remained > 10-fold above the

mean bone:plasma area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) penetration ratio was 13.9%. The 
concentration of dalbavancin in synovial fluid at 12 hours post dose was 22.9 μg/mL and also 
remained above MIC
90 of S. aureus through final sample collection. Similar values were seen in 
synovial tissue.

ANIMAL MODEL OF OSTEOMYELITIS 
Dalbavancin was studied in a rat model of S. aureus sternal osteomyelitis. Rats with S. aureus 
sternal osteomyelitis were treated with one of 3 regimens: dalbavancin (20 mg/kg loading dose 
followed by 10 mg/kg daily), vancomycin (given intraperitoneally, 50 mg/kg, every 12 hours) or 
saline treatment for 7 days and 14 days; efficacy in reducing sternal bone bacterial counts was 
assessed. Dalbavancin showed superiority compared to saline at 7 days (0.75 log reduction in bone 
colony-forming units [CFU]) and at 14 days treatment (> 3-log reduction in bone CFU). Treatment 
with 7 days of dalbavancin reduced systemic dissemination of MRSA compared to saline (5% vs 
33%). Results were similar to those achieved by vancomycin therapy. This study demonstrated the 
effectiveness of dalbavancin using doses mimicking human pharmacokinetics in the treatment of 
MRSA rat sternal osteomyelitis and confirms that dalbavancin in bone is available for the killing of 
bacterial pathogens. 
The prolonged half-life of dalbavancin, which allows for once-weekly dosing, maintains serum 
concentrations above the MIC
90 for most Gram-positive pathogens, including S. aureus. The 
demonstrated distribution of dalbavancin into bone and related tissues is also reassuring. The 2-dose,

once-weekly dosing regimen offers advantages to patients and physicians regarding the need for 
prolonged intravenous access and compliance with an anti-infective treatment course for a disease 
with a treatment duration of 4 to 6 weeks.

INVESTIGATIONAL PLAN 
9.1 
OVERALL STUDY DESIGN AND PLAN: DESCRIPTION 
This clinical study will be a multicenter, open-label, active-controlled, parallel-arm, randomized, 
efficacy and safety study comparing dalbavancin to standard of care (SOC) therapy in osteomyelitis. 
Patients randomized to the dalbavancin treatment group will receive 2 doses of dalbavancin 1 week 
apart and patients in the comparator treatment group will receive treatment with SOC therapy for 
4 to 6 weeks. Patients will then be followed up for a period of 365 days (counted from Day 1).  
The Schedule of Assessments and Procedures is presented in Table 2–1. Detailed descriptions of 
each study visit can be found in Section 9.5.5.  
9.2 
DISCUSSION OF STUDY DESIGN, INCLUDING THE CHOICE OF 
CONTROL GROUPS 
An open-label, randomized, parallel-arm study design was chosen because of the challenges with 
conducting a blinded study with various treatment options and different dosing schedules. 
There will be 2 open-label treatment groups: intravenous (IV) dalbavancin 1500 mg on Day 1 and 
Day 8, and oral or IV SOC antibiotic for osteomyelitis based on investigator judgment for 
4 to 6 weeks. The 2 groups will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio (75 patients in the dalbavancin 
treatment group and 25 patients in the comparator treatment group).  
The comparator treatment group will serve as a contemporaneous illustration of typical SOC 
regimens used at the study sites, and to help assess generalizability of study findings, since the study 
will be done at approximately 10 sites in the United States. A small comparator group (n = 25) is 
preferred over extrapolating from historical controls that may be very different from study cohort, 
and would likely lack efficacy data and inflammatory markers at the same timepoints as the 
dalbavancin treatment group.

9.3.3 
Removal of Patients From Therapy or Study Assessment 
Patients should be encouraged to complete all study assessments. However, a patient may be 
discontinued from study drug therapy or may withdraw consent to participate in this study at any 
time without penalty or loss of benefits to which the patient is otherwise entitled.  
A premature discontinuation from the study will occur when a patient who signed the ICF, 
regardless of circumstances, ceases participation in the study, before the completion of all study 
assessments (ie, before completing all protocol-stipulated activities).  
Follow-up of patients prematurely discontinued from study drug or withdrawn from the study will be 
conducted as described below. 
9.3.3.1 
Premature Discontinuation From Study Drug  
Reasons: Possible reasons for premature discontinuation from study drug administration include, but 
are not limited to: 
• Occurrence of an AE that, in the opinion of the investigator, warrants the patient’s permanent 
discontinuation from IV study drug 
• Known pregnancy or breastfeeding during the study therapy administration period. A female 
patient whose pregnancy test is positive at Day 28 or Day 42 must be followed through the 
immediate postnatal period or until termination of the pregnancy. Study center personnel must 
report every pregnancy as soon as possible (within 24 hours of learning of the pregnancy; as 
described in Section 9.5.2.7). 
• The patient meets criteria for drug-induced liver injury per Appendix III, at the discretion of the 
investigator 
• Patient has an insufficient therapeutic response to study drug. A patient who does not show signs 
of improvement despite treatment with study drug for an appropriate length of time or a patient 
who shows signs of clinical worsening at any time may be prematurely discontinued from study 
therapy. 


Allergan Sales, LLC 
 
 
Page 23 
 
Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
• If a Gram-negative bacteremia develops during the study, or is subsequently found to have been 
present at Baseline, the patient should be removed from study treatment and receive appropriate 
antibiotic(s) to treat the Gram-negative bacteremia. 
• Patients from whom only a Gram-negative pathogen is isolated from blood and/or bone culture 
should be removed from study treatment and receive appropriate antibiotic(s) to treat the 
Gram-negative infection. 
• Investigator determines that it is in the best interest of the patient to discontinue study drug, due 
to reasons other than an AE. 
Assessments and Procedures: A patient who is prematurely discontinued from study drug should 
have the assessments for premature discontinuation conducted at the time of discontinuation as 
outlined in Table 2–1. A clear description of the reason for premature discontinuation from study 
drug must be documented. If a patient is discontinued from study drug due to insufficient therapeutic 
effect and is switched to an alternative antibiotic, that therapy should be recorded. The reasons for 
premature discontinuation from study drug will be reflected on the relevant disposition page of the 
eCRF. Patients who discontinue from study therapy should continue to have follow-up safety visits. 
9.3.3.2 
Withdrawal From Study 
Reasons: Possible reasons for withdrawal from the study depend on the timing of the withdrawal, 
and include, but are not limited to: 
• Screen failure (failure to meet inclusion/exclusion criteria) (before administration of first dose of 
study therapy) 
• Withdrawal of consent (a clear reason must be documented) 
• AE (before administration of first dose of study therapy) 
• Protocol deviation/violation, including lack of compliance  
• Lost to follow-up (every effort must be made to contact the patient; a certified letter must be 
sent) 
• Study or site prematurely terminated by the sponsor for any reason  
An AE should not be a reason for withdrawal from study after study drug has been administered. 
The patient may be discontinued from study drug due to an AE, in which case they should be 
encouraged to stay in the study for follow-up safety assessments.  
Note: If death was due to an AE, then the AE is the reason for discontinuing study drug and death is 
the reason for withdrawal from study. If the death is due to lack of efficacy, then lack of efficacy is 
the reason for discontinuing study drug, and death is the reason for withdrawal from study.

Assessments and Procedures: Patients may withdraw from the study, or be withdrawn at the 
request of the investigator or sponsor. A patient who is withdrawn from the study should be 
encouraged to undergo the assessments for premature discontinuation conducted as outlined in  
Table 2–1 on the day of withdrawal. If a patient withdraws from the study prematurely prior to 
Day 28, a plain film radiograph should be obtained at time of discontinuation. Patients who do not 
complete all scheduled visits/procedures must be requested in writing to come in for a premature 
discontinuation visit and to return any unused investigational product. A copy of the letter, together 
with the source documentation, will be kept by the investigator. A clear description of reason for 
withdrawal from study must be documented. The reasons for withdrawal from the study will be 
reflected on the relevant disposition page of the eCRF. 
9.3.4 
Patient Replacement Procedures 
Randomized patients who are withdrawn from the study will not be replaced. 
9.4 
TREATMENTS 
9.4.1 
Treatments Administered 
9.4.1.1 
Dalbavancin Treatment Group 
Patients randomized to the dalbavancin treatment group will receive treatment as follows: 
• Normal renal function (ie, creatinine clearance [CrCl] ≥ 30 mL/min) (and patients receiving 
regular hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis): dalbavancin 1500 mg IV over 30 (± 5) minutes on 
Day 1 and Day 8.  
• Chronic renal insufficiency (with a serum CrCl of < 30 mL/min and not receiving regular 
hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis): dalbavancin 1000 mg IV over 30 (± 5) minutes on Day 1 
and Day 8. 
9.4.1.2 
Comparator Treatment Group 
Patients randomized to the comparator treatment group will receive an oral or IV antibiotic 
consistent with SOC for osteomyelitis based on investigator judgment. The duration of treatment 
will be 4 to 6 weeks. 
9.4.1.3 
Other Additional Antibacterial Therapy 
Aztreonam may be administered at randomization for presumed co-infection with a Gram-negative 
pathogen and can be discontinued if a Gram-negative pathogen is not documented by culture results. 
A switch to an oral antibiotic for coverage of Gram-negative pathogens is allowed once evidence of 
clinical improvement has been established. 
Metronidazole (IV or oral) or oral vancomycin may be used for Clostridium difficile infections.

Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
Other antibiotics that do not achieve significant therapeutic concentrations in the serum (eg, 
nitrofurantoin) may be considered for the treatment of other concomitant infections. Close 
consultation with the medical monitor is advised prior to use of these antibiotics. 
Surgical debridement should be performed on any patient if clinically indicated. 
9.4.1.4 
Duration of Treatment 
The total duration of study therapy will be 2 doses of dalbavancin given 1 week apart, or 4 to 
6 weeks of comparator treatment. 
9.4.2 
Identity of Investigational Products 
Dalbavancin for Injection is supplied as a single-use vial of sterile, lyophilized preservative-free 
powder containing dalbavancin hydrochloride equivalent to 500 mg of dalbavancin. Each vial should 
be reconstituted and further diluted prior to administration by addition of 5% dextrose (5% glucose) 
solution in accordance with the study pharmacy manual. The study center is responsible for 
providing the appropriate commercially available diluents required for preparation and 
administration of IV infusion. 
Investigational dalbavancin will be labeled based on local regulations. Immediately before 
dispensing investigational dalbavancin, the investigator will write the patient identification (PID) 
number, patient’s initials, and date on the label.  
With the exception of dalbavancin, all other study drugs (oral or parenteral) will be commercially 
labeled and supplied by the study site. All study drugs should be kept in a secure place under 
appropriate storage conditions, as specified on the drug labeling and package insert. 
The investigator or designee is responsible for recording the receipt and use of all investigational 
products supplied and for ensuring the supervision of the storage and allocation of these supplies. 
Upon completion of the study or termination of the site, all unused study drugs that were not 
dispensed will be shipped to a site designated by the sponsor.  
Refer to the Pharmacy Manual for additional information. 
9.4.3 
Method of Assigning Patients to Treatment Groups 
After a patient signs the ICF, study personnel will register the patient in the interactive web response 
system (IWRS), and the system will assign the patient a sequential, unique 9-digit PID number 
consisting of a 3-digit protocol number followed by a 3-digit study center number and then a 3-digit 
unique patient number for the study center. The first patient to sign the ICF at the study center will 
be assigned the first number in the sequence by the study center, and each subsequent patient will be 
assigned the next sequential number. This PID number will be used to identify the patient at all 
phases of the study.

Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
If, after review of the inclusion/exclusion criteria, it is determined that the patient is eligible to enter 
the study, the patient will be randomized to receive either a 2-dose regimen of dalbavancin or 4 to 
6 weeks of SOC antibiotic therapy in accordance with Section 9.4.1.2 in a 3:1 allocation ratio. 
A patient is considered randomized when study personnel receive the treatment assignment 
associated with the patient entered into the IWRS. Study centers will dispense investigational 
product according to the IWRS instructions. Investigational product will be dispensed according to 
IWRS instructions at each dispensing visit (Day 1 and Day 8 for dalbavancin). 
Refer to the Pharmacy Manual for additional information. 
9.4.4 
Selection of Dosages in the Study 
A 2-dose regimen of 1500 mg of dalbavancin administered 1 week apart is proposed for treatment of 
osteomyelitis in adults for the following reasons: 
• The safety of a single 1500 mg dose has been previously evaluated in approximately 60 healthy 
adult volunteers. The single 1500 mg dose was also administered (over 30 minutes) to over 
300 patients with ABSSSI in the recently completed Phase 3 trial DUR001-303, with 
comparable safety and efficacy to the 2-dose regimen (1000 mg on Day 1, followed by 500 mg 
on Day 8). While a 25 mg/kg dose was also studied in a small number of children and was also 
well tolerated, it was only studied in children < 6 years of age. 
• A total dose of 4500 mg over 8 weeks was safely administered and well-tolerated in a Phase 1 
study of extended duration dosing (DUR001-104), with no apparent accumulation (1000 mg of 
dalbavancin on Day 1 followed by 500 mg weekly for 7 additional weeks) (Dunne 2015). 
• The 2-dose regimen of 1500 mg of dalbavancin administered 1 week apart was derived from data 
from the bone penetration study (DUR001-105) and extended duration dosing study 
(DUR001-104), along with population pharmacokinetic (PK) modeling (Dunne 2015).  
• The PK/pharmacodynamic parameter that correlated best with dalbavancin’s efficacy is 
AUC/MIC. The 2-dose regimen of 1500 mg administered 1 week apart is expected to achieve an 
AUC similar to that for a 1000 mg initial dose, followed by 4 subsequent 500 mg weekly doses 
(Dunne 2015).  
• In animal models (Andes and Craig 2007), delivery of the same total dose of dalbavancin earlier 
in the course of therapy was associated with a better likelihood of success relative to the same 
total dose given in smaller amounts over longer periods of time. Assuming these findings in 
animals pertain to human infection, 2 doses of dalbavancin within the first 8 days may be more 
likely to be effective relative to the same total dose over approximately 6 weeks. 
• The proposed dose will also provide dalbavancin exposures in plasma which exceed the MIC90 
for S. aureus for greater than 42 days (6 weeks). 
• Delivery of only 2 doses of dalbavancin avoids the need for a central catheter and the need for 
delivery of IV medications at home.

Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
The dosing regimen for the SOC comparators will be based on the relevant prescribing information 
for those medications and standard clinical care for patients with osteomyelitis. The total treatment 
duration for patients in the comparator treatment group is expected to be 4 to 6 weeks.

Dose Adjustments - Dalbavancin  
In the case of renal impairment, at any time, the dose of dalbavancin (including the initial dose) may 
be adjusted by the pharmacist or designee per the dosage regimen in Table 9.4.4.1-1. At any time, 
the dose of dalbavancin may be readjusted to the appropriate dosage when renal function improves.

Prior and Concomitant Therapy 
Receipt of more than 24 hours of potentially effective IV antibacterial therapy for osteomyelitis 
within 96 hours of randomization is not allowed (unless the pathogen isolated was documented to be 
MRSA that was resistant to the administered antibiotic). Treatment with an investigational drug 
within 30 days prior to the first dose of study medication is not allowed. A patient who has had a 
prior failed course of therapy for osteomyelitis should not be enrolled. 
Drugs Not Allowed as Concomitant Medications (up to Day 42): 
• Systemic antibacterial therapy for Gram-positive infections (eg, rifampin, gentamicin). 
• Concomitant antibiotic therapy that would interfere with the assessment of study drug 
Drugs Allowed as Concomitant Medications: 
• Aztreonam may be administered at randomization for presumed co-infection with a Gram-
negative pathogen and can be discontinued if a Gram-negative pathogen is not documented by 
culture results. A switch to an oral antibiotic for coverage of Gram-negative pathogens is 
allowed once evidence of clinical improvement has been established. 
• Metronidazole (IV or oral) or oral vancomycin may be used for Clostridium difficile infections. 
• Other antibiotics that do not achieve significant therapeutic concentrations in the serum (eg, 
nitrofurantoin) may be considered for treatment of other concomitant infections. Close 
consultation with the medical monitor is advised prior to use of these antibiotics. 
Surgical debridement should be performed on any patient if clinically indicated. 
Note: Patients may not receive pain medication, including ibuprofen and acetaminophen, within the 
4 hours preceding the targeted examination of the infection site (see Section 9.5.2.12). 
9.4.8 
Monitoring Treatment Compliance 
Treatment compliance will be closely monitored by recording the date, time, and whether or not 
each dose of IV study drug was completely infused and, if applicable, whether or not each intended 
dose of oral therapy was taken.

EFFICACY AND SAFETY VARIABLES 
9.5.1 
Efficacy Assessments 
9.5.1.1 
Primary and Secondary Efficacy Assessments 
9.5.1.1.1 
Primary Efficacy Assessment 
The primary efficacy assessment is the clinical response at Day 42 in the Clinically Evaluable (CE) 
Population (see Section 9.7.5.1).  
Clinical response will include assessment of the need for additional antibiotic therapy, presence of 
purulent discharge/drainage, need for amputation due to progression of infection or due to vascular 
insufficiency, death (for any reason), or lost to follow-up. 
Definition of clinical response 
Clinical response can be either cure, failure, or indeterminate: 
• Cure is defined as recovery without need for additional antibiotic therapy.  
• Failure is defined as: 
○ Requirement of additional antibiotic therapy for no response or worsening after 
improvement 
○ New purulence 
○ Amputation due to progression of infection (from initiation of study drug to outcome 
assessment visit). 
○ Requiring > 6 weeks of antibiotic therapy for patients in the comparator treatment group 
○ Death (for any reason).  
• Indeterminate is defined as: 
○ Lost to follow-up 
○ Amputation due to vascular insufficiency (from initiation of study drug to Day 42). 
9.5.1.1.2 
Secondary Efficacy Assessments 
The following secondary efficacy assessments will be made: 
• Clinical improvement at Day 28 in the modified Intent-to-Treat (mITT) and CE Populations will 
be based on an assessment of pain and/or point tenderness compared to baseline and assessment 
of inflammation (as measured by CRP). 


Allergan Sales, LLC

Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
○ Clinical improvement at Day 28 is defined as no worsening of pain from baseline (if present 
at baseline) (subjective pain and/or point tenderness) and improvement in inflammation (as 
measured by CRP). 
• Clinical response at Day 42, Day 180, and Day 365 will be defined as cure, failure or 
indeterminate (see Section 9.5.1.1.1 for definitions), for the following populations: 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 42 in the mITT and microbiological 
modified Intent-to-Treat (micro-mITT) Populations 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 180 in the mITT and CE 
Populations 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 365 in the mITT and CE 
Populations 
○ Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) by pathogen at Day 42 and Day 180 in the 
CE Population

9.5.1.3 
Microbiological Assessments 
9.5.1.3.1 
Blood Samples for Culture 
Peripheral blood culture must be drawn at Baseline (prior to study drug treatment), not through an 
existing intravascular line. If blood cultures are positive at Baseline, they should be repeated once 
every 24 hours until negative. At the Day 8 visit, results of all prior blood cultures should be checked 
and blood cultures should be repeated if previous blood cultures were positive. If clinically 
indicated, blood cultures should be collected at the time of treatment discontinuation or for 
determination of treatment failure. 
Blood cultures should be repeated upon knowledge of a positive result from any visit until clearance 
of bacteremia is confirmed.  
When blood cultures are required, 2 sets of blood samples (1 aerobic and 1 anaerobic bottle) should 
be obtained from 2 separate venipuncture sites.  
Culture, organism identification, and susceptibility testing will be conducted at a local laboratory. 
All pathogens will be tested for susceptibility to all study drugs used at the study site.

Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
Microbiological specimens and isolates will be collected, processed, and stored in accordance with 
local procedures (refer to Microbiology Manual). 
9.5.2 
Safety Assessments 
Patients must be evaluated by a physician or an appropriately trained health care professional at 
every visit, and the evaluation must be documented.  
9.5.2.1 
Adverse Events 
9.5.2.1.1 
Definition of Adverse Events 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation patient administered 
a pharmaceutical product, unless the event is captured in the study endpoint, as defined below; the 
event need not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be 
any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), 
symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not 
considered related to the medicinal product (ICH-E2A). For all AEs, the investigator must pursue 
and obtain adequate information both to determine the outcome of the AE and to assess whether it 
meets the criteria for classification as an SAE requiring immediate notification to the sponsor. All 
AEs will be followed up by the investigator until the event or its sequel resolve or stabilize at a level 
acceptable to the investigator, and the sponsor concurs with that assessment. 
For the purpose of the site’s data collection responsibilities, all AEs should be recorded on the eCRF 
from the time the patient signed the ICF until the final protocol-defined study visit. 
An event would be considered as adequately captured in the study endpoint if it is accurately and 
fully represented by a protocol-defined reason for clinical failure (other than mortality) or relapse. 
Such an event should not be reported as an AE unless it is an SAE as defined in this protocol 
(Section 9.5.2.4). Events represented by the study endpoints include all of the following: 
• Increase or no change in pain and/or point tenderness (compared with baseline) 
• Increase or no change in CRP (compared with highest value) 
• Requirement of additional antibiotic therapy for no response or worsening after improvement 
• New purulence 
• Amputation due to progression of infection (from initiation of study drug to outcome timepoint) 
• Requiring > 6 weeks of antibiotic therapy for patients in the comparator group 
• Lost to follow-up 
• Amputation due to vascular insufficiency (from initiation of study drug to outcome timepoint) 


Allergan Sales, LLC 
 
 
Page 33 
 
Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
Except for circumstances as defined above, examples of AEs include but are not limited to: 
• Abnormal test findings (see Section 9.5.2.1.2) 
• Clinically significant signs and symptoms 
• Changes in physical examination findings 
• Hypersensitivity 
• Progression/worsening of underlying disease 
Additionally, they may include the signs or symptoms resulting from: 
• Drug overdose 
• Drug withdrawal 
• Drug abuse 
• Drug misuse 
• Drug interactions 
• Drug dependency 
• Extravasation of study drug 
• Exposure during Pregnancy 
Please note medical procedures scheduled prior to consenting, but occurring during the study should 
not be captured as AEs, but should be listed in the medical history if related to a pre-existing 
condition. 
Pregnancies should not be automatically assessed as AEs (Section 9.5.2.7). 
9.5.2.1.2 
Abnormal Test Findings 
An abnormal objective test finding (eg, an abnormal liver function test result) should be reported as 
an AE if the following conditions apply:  
• Test result is associated with accompanying symptoms and/or signs, constituting a clinical 
syndrome (eg, abnormal liver function test results, jaundice, and hepatic tenderness suggesting a 
diagnosis of hepatitis), and/or 
• Test result requires additional diagnostic testing or medical/surgical intervention, and/or 
• Test result leads to a change in study dosing or withdrawal from the study, significant additional 
concomitant drug treatment, or other therapy. 


Allergan Sales, LLC 
 
 
Page 34 
 
Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
Merely repeating an abnormal test, in the absence of any of the above conditions, does not define the 
abnormal objective test finding as an AE. Any abnormal test result that is determined to be an error 
does not require reporting as an AE. Additional diagnostic testing or medical/surgical interventions 
that occur as a result of an AE due to an abnormal lab test finding should be noted in the eCRF. 
9.5.2.2 
Causality Assessment 
For each AE (serious and nonserious), the investigator must provide an assessment of causal 
relationship to the investigational product. For all AEs, sufficient information should be obtained by 
the investigator to determine the causality of the AE. The causality assessment must be recorded on 
the appropriate AE reporting page of the patient’s eCRF.  
An investigator’s causality assessment is the determination of whether there exists a reasonable 
possibility that the investigational product caused or contributed to an AE. If the investigator does 
not know whether or not investigational product caused the event, then the event will be handled as 
“related to investigational product” for reporting purposes, as defined by the sponsor. If the 
investigator's causality assessment is "unknown but not related to investigational product
," this 
should be clearly documented on study records. Specifically, the investigator will choose whether 
the AE is unrelated, unlikely related, possibly related or probably related to the investigational 
product. 
In addition, if the investigator determines an SAE is associated with study procedures, the 
investigator must record this causal relationship in the source documents and eCRF, as appropriate, 
and report such an assessment in accordance with the SAE reporting requirements, if applicable. 
The investigator will assess causality of the event in relation to dalbavancin based on the following 
defined criteria:  
• UNRELATED: No relationship between the event and medicinal product 
• UNLIKELY: Event or laboratory test abnormality, with a time to drug intake that makes a 
relationship improbable (but not impossible); disease or other drugs provide plausible 
explanations 
• POSSIBLY: Event or laboratory test abnormality, with reasonable time relationship to drug 
intake; could also be explained by disease or other drugs; information on drug withdrawal may 
be lacking or unclear 
• PROBABLY: Event or laboratory test abnormality, with reasonable time relationship to drug 
intake; unlikely to be attributed to disease or other drugs; response to withdrawal clinically 
reasonable; rechallenge not required

Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
9.5.2.3 
Severity Assessment 
The investigator will provide an assessment of the severity of each AE by recording a severity rating 
on the appropriate AE reporting page of the patient’s eCRF. Severity, which is a description of the 
intensity of manifestation of the AE, is distinct from seriousness, which implies a patient outcome or 
AE-required treatment measure associated with a threat to life or functionality (Section 9.5.2.4). 
Severity will be assessed according to the following scale: 
Mild: 
Does not interfere with the patient’s usual function. 
Moderate: Interferes to some extent with the patient’s usual function. 
Severe: 
Interferes significantly with the patient’s usual function. 
9.5.2.4 
Serious Adverse Events 
9.5.2.4.1 
Definition of a Serious Adverse Event 
An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: 
• Results in death 
• Is life threatening (immediate risk of death) 
• Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization 
• Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or 
• Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
Important medical events that may not result in death, be life threatening, or require hospitalization 
may be considered serious when, based on appropriate medical judgment, they may jeopardize the 
patient or subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes 
listed in this definition. Examples of such medical events include allergic bronchospasm requiring 
intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home, blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not 
result in patient hospitalization, or the development of investigational product dependency or drug 
abuse. 
Emergency room visits that do not result in hospitalization should be evaluated for one of the other 
serious outcomes to determine whether they qualify as SAEs. 
Preplanned hospitalizations (eg, elective procedures for preexisting conditions that did not worsen, 
such as cosmetic surgery and hysterectomy) are excluded from SAE reporting. 
For SAEs, the reporting period to the sponsor begins from the time that the patient provides 
informed consent, ie, prior to undergoing any study-related procedure and/or receiving 
investigational product, through the Final Visit. Any SAE occurring any time after the reporting 
period must be promptly reported if a causal relationship to investigational product is suspected.  


Allergan Sales, LLC

Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
9.5.2.4.2 
Hospitalization 
Adverse events associated with hospitalization or prolongations of hospitalization are considered 
serious. Any initial admission to a healthcare facility meets these criteria. Admission also includes 
transfer within the hospital to an acute/intensive care unit (eg, from the psychiatric wing to a medical 
floor, medical floor to a coronary care unit, neurological floor to a tuberculosis unit). 
Hospitalization does not include the following: 
• Rehabilitation facilities 
• Hospice facilities 
• Respite care (eg, caregiver relief) 
• Skilled nursing facilities 
• Nursing homes 
• Routine emergency room admissions 
• Same day surgeries (as outpatient/same day/ambulatory procedures). 
Hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization in the absence of a precipitating, clinical AE is not 
in itself an SAE. Examples include:  
• Admission for treatment of a preexisting condition not associated with the development of a new 
AE or with a worsening of the preexisting condition (eg, for work-up of persistent pretreatment 
laboratory abnormality) 
• Social admission (eg, patient has no place to sleep) 
• Administrative admission (eg, for yearly physical exam) 
• Protocol-specified admission during a study (eg, for a procedure required by the study protocol) 
• Optional admission not associated with a precipitating clinical AE (eg, for elective cosmetic 
surgery). Preplanned treatments or surgical procedures should be noted in the baseline 
documentation for the entire protocol and/or for the individual patient 
• Admission exclusively for the administration of blood products. 
Diagnostic and therapeutic noninvasive and invasive procedures, such as surgery, should not be 
reported as an AE. However, the medical condition for which the procedure was performed should 
be reported if it meets the definition of an AE. For example, an acute appendicitis that begins during 
the AE reporting period should be reported as the AE and the resulting appendectomy should be 
recorded as treatment of the AE.

Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
9.5.2.5 
Reporting Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events 
At each visit, patients are to be queried regarding any AEs or SAEs that have occurred since the 
previous visit. Patients will be asked to volunteer information with a nonleading question such as, 
“How do you feel since your last visit?” Study site personnel will record all pertinent information in 
the patient’s eCRF.  
All AEs must be recorded on the appropriate AE reporting page of the patient’s eCRF whether or not 
they are considered causally related to the investigational product. 
For every AE, the investigator must: 
• Provide an assessment of the seriousness of the event (ie, is it an SAE?), as well as the severity 
and causal relationship 
• Document all actions taken with regard to the investigational product 
• Detail any other treatment measures taken for the AE 
• Document the outcome of the AE. 
In addition, patients are to be reminded, as described in the ICF and in accordance with 
Section 9.5.2.1, to notify site personnel of any AEs occurring from the time the patient signed the 
ICF until the final protocol defined study visit.  
Any AEs that are ongoing at the time of the final protocol-defined study visit will be followed until 
the condition returns to prestudy status, has resolved or stabilized, or can be explained as being 
unrelated to the investigational product. If a follow-up visit is deemed necessary for appropriate 
safety surveillance, it will take place within 30 days of the final protocol-defined study visit. 
For SAEs, the reporting period to the sponsor begins from the time that the patient provides 
informed consent, ie, prior to undergoing any study-related procedure and/or receiving 
investigational product, through the Final Visit. Any SAE occurring any time after the reporting 
period must be promptly reported if a causal relationship to investigational product is suspected.  
9.5.2.6 
Immediate Reporting of Serious Adverse Events and Events of Special Interest 
The sponsor is required to inform worldwide regulatory authorities of SAEs that meet specific 
criteria. Therefore, the sponsor must be notified immediately regarding any SAE that occurs after 
informed consent is obtained. 
Within 24 hours of learning of any AE that meets one of the criteria for an SAE, the study site 
personnel must report the event to Allergan Global Drug Safety on the SAE Form for Clinical Trials. 
The sponsor’s Study Physician may also be notified by telephone. 
If, during follow-up, any nonserious AE worsens and eventually meets the criteria for an SAE, that 
AE should be recorded as a new SAE.  


Allergan Sales, LLC 
 
 
Page 38 
 
Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
The site must transmit the SAE Form for Clinical Trials to the SAE fax number shown below. Even 
if an initial report is made by telephone, the SAE Form for Clinical Trials completed with all 
available details must still be faxed within 24 hours of knowledge of the event at the study site. 
Supplemental information should be submitted as soon as available and may include laboratory 
results, radiology reports, progress notes, hospital admission and emergency room notes, holding and 
observation notes, discharge summaries, autopsy reports, and death certificates. 
The investigator is expected to take all therapeutic measures necessary for resolution of the SAE. 
Any medications or procedures necessary for treatment of the SAE must be recorded on the 
appropriate pages of the patient’s eCRF. All SAEs are to be followed by the study staff until 
resolution or until the SAE is deemed stable. The sponsor may contact the study site to solicit 
additional information or follow up on the event. 
Fax the SAE Form for Clinical Trials to the following number: 
 
 
 
9.5.2.7 
Reporting of Pregnancies Occurring During the Study 
An exposure during pregnancy occurs if a female becomes, or is found to be, pregnant either while 
receiving or having been directly exposed to (eg, environmental exposure) the investigational 
product, or the female becomes, or is found to be, pregnant after discontinuing and/or being directly 
exposed to the investigational product (maternal exposure). Within 24 hours of learning of the 
pregnancy, the study site personnel must report the event to Allergan Global Drug Safety on the 
Clinical Trial Pregnancy Form and fax it to the SAE/Pregnancy fax number stated in Section 9.5.2.6, 
even if no AE has occurred. 
The pregnancy must be followed to term and the outcome reported by completing a follow-up a 
Clinical Trial Pregnancy Form. If the pregnancy is associated with an SAE (eg, if the mother is 
hospitalized for hemorrhage), a separate SAE Form for Clinical Trials must be filed as described in 
Section 9.5.2.6 with the appropriate serious criterion (eg, hospitalization) indicated in addition to the 
Pregnancy Form. 
9.5.2.8 
Potential Hy’s Law Cases 
Criteria for potential Hy’s Law (PHL) cases are as follows:  
• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥ 3 × ULN AND  
• Total bilirubin ≥ 2 × ULN AND  
• Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) < 2 × ULN 


Allergan Sales, LLC 
 
 
Page 39 
 
Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
Study site personnel must report every patient who meets these criteria. Typically, all 3 analytes will 
be obtained from the same sample, but they may come from multiple samples taken within a 24-hour 
period. This requirement applies from the time the patient signs the ICF for the study until the final 
protocol-defined study visit.  
The investigator must notify the sponsor immediately when the above criteria have been met. A 
(PHL case must be faxed to the sponsor on an AE of Special Interest Form as soon as possible 
(within 24 hours of learning of the PHL) to the SAE/Pregnancy fax number stated in Section 9.5.2.6, 
even if no AE has occurred. The eCRF for PHL cases must be completed within 7 calendar days. 
Every effort to determine the cause of the liver enzyme abnormalities must be made, and close 
monitoring should be initiated in conjunction with the Study Physician and in accordance with FDA 
guidance (US Food and Drug Administration, 2009). 
9.5.2.9 
Clinical Laboratory Determinations 
Blood and urine samples for clinical laboratory tests will be collected according to the Schedule of 
Assessments and Procedures (Table 2–1). 
Women of childbearing potential (including those who are less than 2 years postmenopausal) will be 
required to have a serum pregnancy test at baseline. The test must be negative before randomization. 
If the serum test results cannot be obtained before randomization, a urine pregnancy test may be 
used for enrollment. 
The following clinical laboratory levels will be measured: 
Hematology: Absolute and differential white blood cell count, neutrophils (absolute count and %), 
immature neutrophils (bands; %), lymphocytes (absolute count and %), monocytes 
(absolute count and %), eosinophils (absolute count and %), basophils (absolute count 
and %), erythrocyte count, hematocrit, hemoglobin, platelet count 
Chemistry: Albumin, ALP, AST, ALT, bilirubin (total and direct), blood urea nitrogen, 
creatinine, electrolytes (ie, bicarbonate, chloride, potassium, sodium), 
gamma-glutamyl transferase, glucose (random), lactate dehydrogenase 
Other: 
CRP, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), pregnancy test (serum or urine) 
The site’s local laboratory will be used to evaluate all laboratory samples. 
Results from unscheduled laboratory tests will not be collected, unless associated with an SAE or 
AE leading to discontinuation of IV study drug. 
Any abnormal laboratory test possibly attributable to IV study drugs, or of clinical significance, will 
be repeated at appropriate intervals until stabilization; results from these unscheduled laboratory 
tests should be collected. 
The volume of blood to be taken for the various laboratory assessments will be specified in the 
Laboratory Manual.

Potential Drug-Induced Liver Injury/Hy’s Law 
See Section 9.5.2.8. 
9.5.2.10 
Vital Signs, Body Weight, and Height 
Vital signs will be recorded at every visit; the parameters are: 
• Blood pressure, systolic and diastolic: to be taken after the patient has been sitting for 5 minutes 
• Pulse rate: to be taken after the patient has been sitting for 5 minutes 
• Respiratory rate 
• Temperature (oral, rectal, or tympanic): if taken multiple times, record the highest daily 
temperature 
Body weight and height will be measured at baseline. If height or weight is not obtainable (eg, 
patient is immobilized), the last known or stated height and weight may be used. 
9.5.2.11 
Physical Examination 
A complete physical examination (including general appearance, examination of head, eyes, ears, 
nose, throat, neck, skin, heart lungs, abdomen, neurologic system, extremities, height, and body 
weight) will be conducted at Baseline by a professionally trained physician or health professional 
licensed to perform physical examinations. 
Body weight and height will be measured at Baseline. If height or weight is not obtainable (eg, 
patient is immobilized), the last known or stated height and weight may be used. 
9.5.2.12 
Targeted Examination of Infection Site 
A targeted examination of the infection site will be performed at Baseline, Day 8, Day 21, Day 28, 
Day 42, Day 180, and Day 365, as well as upon premature discontinuation (Early Termination 
Visit). 
The same medically trained individual should perform all assessments, if possible. Patients may not 
receive pain medication, including ibuprofen and acetaminophen, within the 4 hours preceding the 
assessments. 
9.5.3 
Dalbavancin Concentration Measurements 
Blood samples for the determination of dalbavancin in plasma will be collected according to the

Schedule of Assessments 
The schedule of study assessments and procedures is tabulated by study day in Table 2–1. The 
descriptions of the assessments and procedures to be performed at each visit are provided below. 
9.5.5.1 
Baseline 
Baseline procedures must be completed within 24 hours before the first dose of study drug is 
administered. Any protocol-required eligibility laboratory evaluations already done as part of the 
patient’s regular medical care within 24 hours of the start of the study drug on Study Day 1 do not 
have to be repeated to determine patient eligibility. 
At Baseline, informed consent will be obtained, a review of inclusion/exclusion criteria will be 
conducted to determine the patient’s eligibility for enrollment, and study procedures will be 
reviewed with the patient and/or the legally authorized representative (if applicable). After signing 
the ICF, the patient will be assigned a unique PID number (see Section 9.4.3). If, after review of the 
inclusion/exclusion criteria, it is determined that the patient is eligible to enter the study, the patient 
will be randomized according to randomization procedures in Section 9.4.3. 
At Baseline, the following procedures will be performed: 
• Obtain written informed consent per Section 5.3. 
• Access IWRS and assign a unique PID number to the patient (Section 9.4.3). 
• Verify that inclusion criteria are met and none of the exclusion criteria apply. 
• Obtain information on patient demographics, medical history, and surgical history including all 
active conditions and all conditions diagnosed within the previous 3 months.

• Conduct a targeted examination of infection site. The same medically trained individual should 
perform all assessments, if possible. Patient may not receive pain medication, including 
ibuprofen and acetaminophen, within the 4 hours preceding the assessment. 
• Record vital signs (blood pressure and pulse rate after patient has been sitting for at least 
5 minutes, respiratory rate, temperature [oral, rectal, or tympanic]).  
• Record medication history: prior medications, including antimicrobials (ie, antibacterials,

DATA QUALITY ASSURANCE 
9.6.1 
Data Recording and Documentation 
Data collection will involve the use of the Allergan electronic data capture (EDC) system, to which 
only authorized personnel will have access. Patient’s data are to be entered into the EDC system by 
the investigator or designee using their assigned EDC user account. After data entry into the EDC 
system by the investigator or designee, a combination of manual and programmatic edit checks will 
be used to review the data for completeness, logic, and adherence to study protocol. As a result of 
these edit checks, data monitoring and reviews, queries may be electronically issued to the site and 
should be answered electronically via the EDC system. 
Each query will carry identifying information (assigned username, date, and time) to assist the 
sponsor and the investigator on the origin of the data clarification request and the response provided 
by the investigator. All data changes made to the patient’s data via a data query will be approved by 
the investigator prior to final database lock. 
After all data have been reviewed and all issues have been resolved, the database will be locked. 
All data collected in the context of this study will be stored and evaluated per regulatory 
requirements and applicable guidance for electronic records. Also, data will be stored and evaluated 
in such a way as to guarantee patient confidentiality in accordance with the legal stipulations 
applying to confidentiality of data. Study records (eg, copies of eCRFs, laboratory reports, 
regulatory documents, etc.) will be retained at the site, along with adequate source documentation, 
according to regulatory requirements. All study records must be available for inspection by the 
sponsor, its authorized representatives, and regulatory or other health authorities. 
9.6.2 
Data Monitoring 
Before any patient enters the study, a representative of the sponsor will meet with the investigator 
and the study site staff to review the procedures to be followed during the study. EDC functionality 
training is provided via computer-based training to train investigators and authorized designees on 
recording the data in the eCRFs using the EDC system. After the first patient is enrolled, the sponsor 
representative, a Regional Site Manager (RSM) or designee, will periodically monitor the progress 
of the study by conducting on-site visits. This RSM or designee will review query statuses remotely, 
possibly warranting more frequent communication and/or site visits with the investigator and the 
study site staff. The investigator will make available to the RSM or designee source documents 
(written notes and electronic medical records, if used), signed consent forms, and all other 
study-related documents. The investigator and the study site staff will be responsible for data entry 
of patient data into the eCRFs via the EDC system, resolving data queries generated via the EDC 
system and providing missing or corrected data. The investigator or designee will be responsible for 
approving all changes performed on the data, and endorsing the patient data within the EDC system. 
This approval method will include applying an electronic signature linked to a uniquely assigned 
username and password that together will represent a traditional handwritten signature used in the 
past.

Analysis Populations 
Definitions of the Analysis Populations considered in the statistical analysis of the study are 
provided below. 
9.7.1.1 
Screened Population 
The Screened Population will consist of all patients who undergo the Baseline Visit and receive a 
PID number. 
9.7.1.2 
Intent-to-Treat Population 
The Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population will consist of all patients in the Screened Population who are 
randomized to a treatment group in the study, regardless of whether or not they receive study 
treatment. 
9.7.1.3 
Safety Population 
The Safety Population will be a subset of the ITT Population and will include all randomized 
patients who receive any amount of randomized medication. Patients will be analyzed according to 
the treatment actually received.

The mITT Population will be a subset of the ITT Population and will include all randomized patients 
who receive any amount of randomized medication and meet the criteria for known or suspected 
Gram-positive osteomyelitis (Inclusion Criterion 2; see Section 9.3.1). Patients from whom only a 
Gram-negative pathogen is isolated from blood and/or bone culture will be excluded from the mITT. 
Patients whose cultures include both a Gram-positive and a Gram-negative pathogen will remain in 
the mITT. Patients will be analyzed according to randomized treatment group, regardless of 
treatment received. 
9.7.1.5 
Microbiological Modified Intent-to-Treat Population 
The micro-mITT Population will be a subset of the mITT Population and will include patients with a 
Gram-positive pathogen isolated from blood and/or bone specimen. Patients whose cultures include 
both a Gram-positive and a Gram-negative pathogen will remain in the micro-mITT. 
9.7.1.6 
Clinically Evaluable Population 
The CE Population will be a subset of the mITT Population and will include patients who meet both 
of the following specific conditions for evaluability:

Page 51 
 
Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
• For patients randomized to receive dalbavancin, received at least 1 dose of active study 
medication. For patients randomized to comparator, received at least 2 weeks of study 
medication. 
• Received no more than 1 dose of another (nonstudy) systemic antibacterial therapy with 
documented activity against the causative organism, from study drug initiation until the outcome 
assessment visit, for an indication other than osteomyelitis. [Note: patients receiving a nonstudy 
systemic antibacterial treatment for the treatment of osteomyelitis from initiation of study drug 
through the outcome assessment visit will be assessed as EVALUABLE FAILURES] 
9.7.2 
Patient Disposition 
Patient disposition (enrollment, discontinuations from study drug and the study) by treatment group 
will be provided based on the ITT Population. Reasons for exclusion from study populations will be 
summarized for the ITT Population. 
The number of patients in the Safety and ITT Populations will be summarized by treatment group; 
the Screened Analysis Set will only be summarized overall. 
Screen failures (ie, patients screened but not randomized) and the associated reasons for failure will 
be tabulated overall.  
The number and percentage of patients who complete the treatment period and of patients who 
prematurely discontinue during the same period will be presented for each treatment group and 
pooled across treatment groups for the ITT Population. The reasons for premature discontinuation 
from the treatment period as recorded on the termination pages of the eCRF will be summarized 
(number and percentage) by treatment group for all randomized patients.  
9.7.3 
Demographics and Other Baseline Characteristics 
Demographics (eg, age, race, gender, body mass index), medical and surgical history, description of 
the infection by pathogen, markers of disease severity and co-morbidities (eg, presence of 
bacteremia, renal impairment), baseline assessment of the clinical signs and symptoms, and 
microbiological assessment of the infection site will be summarized by treatment group in the mITT 
Population. 
Prior medication is defined as any medication taken before the date of the first dose of 
investigational or comparator product. Concomitant medication is defined as any medication started 
on or after the date of the first dose of investigational product or comparator product. Any prior 
medications stopped more than 3 days before the date of the first dose of investigational or 
comparator product and any concomitant medications started after the date of the last dose of 
investigational or comparator product will not be presented in the summary tables, but will be 
included in the patient data listings. Medications that are ongoing at the time of first dose of 
randomized medication will be counted both as prior and concomitant.

Page 52 
 
Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
Both prior and concomitant medication use will be summarized by the number and proportion of 
patients in each treatment group receiving each medication within each therapeutic class for the 
Safety Population. Multiple administrations of the same medication to a patient will be counted only 
once for the given patient. Medication-related summaries will be presented separately by “systemic 
antimicrobial medications” and “other medications not in this class” subgroups. 
9.7.4 
Extent of Exposure and Treatment Compliance 
9.7.4.1 
Extent of Exposure 
Exposure to study drug will be summarized by treatment group for the Safety Population. Calendar 
days of exposure will be calculated as the number of calendar days on study drug. For each type of 
exposure descriptive statistics (number of patients, mean, standard deviation (SD), median, 
minimum, and maximum) will be presented. 
9.7.4.2 
Measurement of Treatment Compliance 
Each patient’s compliance with study therapy will be calculated based on the number of doses of 
study drug the patient would have been expected to receive based on the number of treatment days, 
the specific dosing regimen indicated for the given drug, and the start and stop date and times of the 
first and last dose of each study drug. Treatment compliance is defined as the number of doses 
actually received divided by the number of doses expected (× 100) over the time period of first 
dosing date and time to last dosing date and time.  
9.7.5 
Efficacy Analyses 
Efficacy analyses will be based on the mITT analysis set. Baseline for efficacy is defined as the last 
measurement collected just before the first dose of randomized study drug. All CIs will be 2-sided 
95% CIs, unless stated otherwise. 
For each efficacy parameter listed below, number and proportion of patients with categories of 
clinical responses will be presented by treatment groups, and the 2-sided 95% CIs for the percentage 
of patients with favorable response will be obtained using the Clopper-Pearson method 
(Clopper and Pearson 1934) for each treatment group unless stated otherwise. Due to the small 
sample size of comparator treatment group, the between treatment comparison will not be provided. 
9.7.5.1 
Primary Efficacy Parameter 
The primary efficacy parameter is the clinical response at Day 42 in the CE Population. Clinical 
response can be either cure, failure, or indeterminate, as defined in Section 9.5.1.1.1. For calculation 
of the 95% CI for the percentage of patients with response of cure, the indeterminate responses will 
be treated as failures.

Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
9.7.5.2 
Secondary Efficacy Parameters 
The following are the secondary efficacy parameters: 
• Clinical improvement at Day 28 in the mITT and CE Populations 
○ Clinical improvement at Day 28 is defined as no worsening of pain from baseline 
(if present at baseline) (subjective pain and/or point tenderness) and improvement 
in inflammation (as measured by CRP). 
• Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 42 in the mITT and micro-mITT 
Populations 
• Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 180 in the mITT and CE Populations 
• Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) at Day 365 in the mITT and CE Populations 
• Clinical response (cure, failure, or indeterminate) by pathogen at Day 42 and Day 180 in the CE 
Population. 
Clinical responses at Day 180 and Day 365 are defined and handled in the same way as the primary 
parameter. For clinical response by pathogen, 95% CIs will be calculated only for pathogens for 
which sample sizes are greater than 10 in the dalbavancin group.

9.7.6.1 
Adverse Events 
An AE (classified by preferred term) that occurs during the treatment period will be considered a 
TEAE if it was not present before the date of the first dose of investigational product or was present 
before the date of the first dose of investigational product and increased in severity during the 
treatment period. If more than 1 AE is reported before the date of the first dose investigational 
product and coded to the same preferred term, the AE with the greatest severity will be used as the 
benchmark for comparison with the AEs occurring during the treatment period that were also coded 
to that preferred term.  
The number and percentage of patients reporting TEAEs in each treatment group will be tabulated 
by system organ class and preferred term; by system organ class, preferred term, and severity; and 
by system organ class, preferred term, and causal relationship to the investigational product. If more 
than 1 AE is coded to the same preferred term for the same patient, the patient will be counted only 
once for that preferred term using the most severe and most related occurrence for the 
summarization by severity and by causal relationship to the investigational product. 
The distribution of TEAEs by severity and causal relationship to the investigational product will be 
summarized by treatment group.

The incidence of common (eg, ≥ 2% of patients in any treatment group) TEAEs, on-therapy SAEs, 
and AEs leading to premature discontinuation of the investigational product will be summarized by 
preferred term and treatment group and will be sorted by decreasing frequency for the test treatment. 
In addition, the incidence of fatal on-therapy SAEs (ie, events that caused death) will be summarized 
separately by treatment group and preferred term.  
Listings will be presented for patients with SAEs, patients with AEs leading to discontinuation, and 
patients who die (if any). 
9.7.6.2 
Clinical Laboratory Parameters 
Descriptive statistics for clinical laboratory values (in SI units) and changes from the baseline values 
at each assessment timepoint will be presented by treatment group for each clinical laboratory 
parameter. 
The number and percentage of patients with PCS postbaseline clinical laboratory values will be 
tabulated by treatment group. The criteria for PCS laboratory values will be detailed in the statistical 
analysis plan. The percentages will be calculated relative to the number of patients with available 
non-PCS baseline values and at least 1 postbaseline assessment. The numerator will be the total 
number of patients with available non-PCS baseline values and at least 1 PCS postbaseline value. A 
supportive listing of patients with PCS postbaseline values will be provided, including the PID 
number, study center number, and baseline and postbaseline values. A listing of all AEs that occur in 
patients who have PCS laboratory values will also be provided. 
Patients who meet the PHL criteria will be summarized for the Safety Population. Supportive tabular 
displays will also be provided. 
9.7.6.3 
Vital Signs 
Descriptive statistics for vital signs (ie, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, respiratory 
rate, and temperature) and changes from baseline values at each visit and at end of study will be 
presented by treatment group. 
Vital sign values will be PCS if they meet both the observed-value criteria and the change from 
baseline–value criteria detailed in the statistical analysis plan. The percentages will be calculated 
relative to the number of patients with baseline values and at least 1 postbaseline assessment. The 
numerator will be the total number of patients with available baseline values and at least 1 PCS 
postbaseline value. A supportive listing of patients with PCS postbaseline values will be provided, 
including the PID number, and baseline and postbaseline values. A listing of all AEs that occur in 
patients who have PCS vital sign values will also be provided.

treatment group will result in a 2-sided 95% CI with the approximate half-width of 11% for the 
proportion of patients with a clinical cure when the expected proportion is 65%. Higher observed 
favorable response rates will result in improved precision. The precision for the comparator group is 
not estimated due to the small sample size. The comparator group is intended to provide information 
on SOC treatment regimens and overall generalizability of study findings, and is not intended to 
provide a statistically powered comparison of efficacy. 
9.7.11 
Computer Methods 
Statistical analyses will be performed using SAS version 9.3 or higher. 
9.8 
CHANGES IN THE CONDUCT OF THE STUDY OR PLANNED 
ANALYSES 
Any amendment to this protocol will be provided to the investigator in writing by the sponsor. No 
protocol amendment may be implemented (with the exceptions noted below) before it has been 
approved by the IRB and the signature page, signed by the investigator, has been received by the 
sponsor. If the protocol is amended to eliminate or reduce the risk to patients, the amendment may 
be implemented before IRB review and approval. However, the IRB must be informed in writing of 
such an amendment, and approval must be obtained within reasonable time limits.  
9.9 
PROTOCOL DEVIATIONS 
A protocol deviation is any change, divergence, or departure from the study design or procedures 
that is under the investigator’s responsibility and oversight (as defined by regulations) without prior 
written IRB approval or favorable opinion of an appropriate amendment and that does not have a 
major impact on the patient’s rights, safety, or well-being, or on the integrity and authenticity of the 
study data. Deviations may include, but are not limited to, departure from inclusion/exclusion 
criteria, allowed concomitant medications, dosing or duration of treatment, failure to follow 
withdrawal criteria or perform the required assessments at specified timepoints, and scheduling of 
visits not in accordance with specifications.

APPENDIX III. 
POTENTIAL DRUG-INDUCED LIVER INJURY/HY’S LAW 
IDENTIFICATION 
The investigator is responsible for determining whether a patient meets the following potential Hy’s 
law (PHL) criteria at any point after initiation of study therapy (IV or oral). For a PHL case to meet 
Hy’s Law, the increases from baseline in AST or ALT and total bilirubin values, in the investigator’s 
clinical judgment, should be temporally related to one another and to the administration of study 
drug, without an alternative explanation.  
PHL  
AST or ALT ≥ 3 × ULN and total bilirubin ≥ 2 × ULN and ALP < 2 × ULN 
If there are increases from baseline in AST or ALT ≥ 3 × ULN and total bilirubin ≥ 2 × ULN: 
• The investigator must follow the instructions in this appendix 
• The investigative site must complete the appropriate screen(s) of the eCRF with the local 
laboratory test results 
FOLLOW-UP AND REPORTING  
If the investigator determines that the patient has not met PHL criteria (has not had increases from 
baseline in AST or ALT ≥ 3 × ULN and total bilirubin ≥ 2 × ULN and ALP < 2 × ULN, at any point 
after initiation of study drug), the investigator is to perform follow-up on subsequent laboratory 
results as required for patient care and per protocol Section 9.5.2.8. 
If the investigator determines that the patient has met PHL criteria (has had AST or ALT ≥ 3 × ULN 
and total bilirubin ≥ 2 × ULN, and ALP < 2 × ULN, elevated from baseline at any point after 
initiation of study drug): 
• The investigator should review the criteria for premature discontinuation of study drug due to 
elevated liver chemistry values, per protocol Section 9.3.3 
• Any PHL case should be handled as an SAE associated with the use of the drug and reported as 
an SAE per protocol Section 9.5.2.5 (ie, even before all other possible causes of liver injury have 
been excluded). It should be promptly reported before doing a full workup on the patient to rule 
out other etiologies  
• The investigator will investigate the etiology of the event and establish if another 
explanation/alternative cause other than drug-induced liver injury caused by the study drug is 
possible. The sponsor may be contacted to discuss the work-up.  
• The investigative site must complete the appropriate screens of the eCRF.

Protocol 3026-201-008 
 
Study 3026-201-008 (Protocol)  
 
If there is an alternative explanation or the liver chemistry values increased from baseline are not 
temporally related to one another and to the initiation of study drug, the investigator should update 
the PHL SAE to reflect the attributed underlying illness and reassign an appropriate causality 
assessment, per protocol Sections 9.5.2.5 and 9.5.2.2, respectively.  
If there is no alternative explanation and the liver chemistry values increased from baseline are 
temporally related to one another and to the initiation of study drug, the investigator should update 
the PHL SAE to a Hy’s Law case (reported term ‘Hy’s Law’) and reassign a causality assessment of 
“related.” 
If, despite the investigator’s attempts to conduct follow-up and the guidance provided in this 
appendix, there is an unavoidable delay of > 3 weeks in obtaining the information necessary to 
assess whether or not the case meets the criteria for a Hy’s case, then it is assumed that there is no 
alternative explanation until such time as an informed decision can be made.
