MOSAIC study • A multicentre, multinational, prospective, randomised, double blind study to compare the effectiveness ofMoxifloxacin Oral tablets to Standard oral antibiotic regimen given as first-line therapy in out-patients with Acute Infective exacerbations of Chronic bronchitis.

MOSAIC study: objectives To investigate whether Moxifloxacin (the antibiotic with superior in vitro activity) gives superior clinical outcomes compared to standard therapy in the treatment of AECB
