Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of daptomycin an antibiotic to standard therapy in subjects who have infective endocarditis or bacteremia due to Staphylococcus aureus S aureus
Detailed Description: Even with prompt treatment Staphylococcus aureus Infective Endocarditis IE continues to be associated with significant morbidity and mortality indicating a need for new therapeutic approaches In vitro daptomycin is rapidly bactericidal with concentration-dependent killing and MIC90 of 05 microgramml for S aureus in clinical studies daptomycin appears to be well tolerated and can be administered once every 24 hours by iv infusion These characteristics suggest it should be clinically and microbiologically effective in the treatment of serious S aureus infections including IE and bacteremia

Comparison standard of care Vancomycin or Semi-synthetic Penicillin with adjunct gentamicin
