Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Recurrent acute otitis media (RAOM) or chronic otitis media with effusion (COME) and eligible for bilateral myringotomy and tympanostomy tube insertion.
- •Suspected bacterial infection at time of surgery in at least 1 ear.
- •Willing to refrain from water immersion of the ears following surgery without the use of adequate ear protection during swimming, bathing, showering and other water-related activities.
- •Legally Authorized Representative (LAR) must read and sign the informed consent.
- •Parent or caregiver must agree to comply with the requirements of the study and administer study medication as directed, complete required study visits, and comply with the protocol.
- •Other protocol-specified inclusion criteria may apply.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Previous otologic or otologic-related surgery within the past 30 days or ongoing complications.
- •Middle ear pathology in either ear other than otitis media.
- •Current acute otitis externa (AOE), malignant otitis externa (MOE) or other conditions which could interfere with evaluation of the study drug.
- •Any systemic disease or disorder, complicating factor or structural abnormality that would negatively affect the conduct or outcome of the study based upon assessment by the Investigator.
- •Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to quinolones or other active or inactive ingredients present in the medications to be used in the study.
- •Other protocol-specified exclusion criteria may apply.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percentage of Subjects With Sustained Clinical Cure at Day 8
Time Frame: Day 8
Sustained clinical cure was defined as the absence of otorrhea in the study ear at Day 8 (end of treatment (EOT)) per the Investigator assessment. Participants were considered a treatment failure if, at any time during the course of the study, an alternative therapy was initiated to treat the post-surgical infection. All participants who had missing or indeterminate outcomes were considered a failure (same as baseline observation carried forward).
Secondary Outcomes
- Time to Cessation of Otorrhea(Up to Day 14)
- Percentage of Subjects With Microbiological Success at Day 14(Day 14)
