Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	ECG analysis - baseline-adjusted mean QTcF	To compare the post-dosing placebo-corrected, baseline-adjusted mean QTcF differences (??QTcF) of nemonoxacin 500 mg/750 mg groups and placebo group at corresponding time points with the manually measured QTcF in Lead II of ECG.	2 days
Secondary	ECG analysis - baseline-adjusted mean QTcB	To compare the post-dosing placebo-corrected, baseline-adjusted mean QTcB differences (??QTcF) of nemonoxacin 500 mg/750 mg groups and placebo group at corresponding time points with the manually measured QTcB in Lead II of ECG.	2 days
Secondary	ECG analysis - baseline-adjusted mean QTcP	To compare the post-dosing placebo-corrected, baseline-adjusted mean QTcP differences (??QTcF) of nemonoxacin 500 mg/750 mg groups and placebo group at corresponding time points with the manually measured QTcP in Lead II of ECG.	2 days
