Yong Yang1 Methods: Two independent, open-label, randomized, crossover studies were conducted in Xiao-yan Chen1 24 (12 per study) healthy Chinese volunteers. In Study 1, each volunteer received a single oral Ting Wang2 dose of 500 mg of nemonoxacin alone or with 1.5 g of probenecid divided into three doses within Yun-biao Tang3 25 hours. In Study 2, each volunteer received a single oral dose of 500 mg of nemonoxacin alone or with multiple doses of cimetidine (400 mg thrice daily for 7 days). The plasma and urine Cheng-yuan Tsai4 nemonoxacin concentrations were determined using validated liquid chromatography–tandem Li-wen Chang4 mass spectrometry methods.

It shows a broad spectrum of activity against Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and atypical pathogens,1,2 and it appears to be more potent than other fluorinated quinolones (FQs), including ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, and moxifloxacin.3 Clinical studies have shown that nemonoxacin has good safety/ tolerability and efficacy profiles in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), superior to those of levofloxacin.4,5 The premarketing clinical studies for the oral formulation have been completed, and the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration Correspondence: Da-fang Zhong approved oral nemonoxacin for the treatment of CAP in March 2014 (Manufacturing State Key Laboratory of Drug licence No. 058540).

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1335. 48 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9923-5. The crucial role of antibiotics in modern medicine, in curing infections and enabling advanced medical procedures, is being threatened by the increasing frequency of resistant bacteria. Better understanding of the forces selecting resistance mutations could help develop strategies to optimize the use of antibiotics and slow the spread of resistance. Resistance to ciprofloxacin, a clinically important antibiotic, almost always involves target mutations in DNA gyrase and Topoisomerase IV. Because ciprofloxacin is a substrate of the AcrAB-TolC efflux pump, mutations causing pump up-regulation are also common. Studying the role of efflux pump-regulatory mutations in the development of ciprofloxacin resistance, we found a strong bias against gene-inactivating mutations in marR and acrR in clinical isolates.

  • Newer Antibiotics: Need for More Studies in Neonates and Children Jeeson C Unni
    ANTIMICROBIALS Newer Antibiotics: Need for More Studies in Neonates and Children Jeeson C Unni ABSTRACT This article reviews few trials assessing the use of newer antibiotics in the neonates and children. Published data show that more studies are conducted in the adult population (50 times) when compared to children with respect to the testing of newer antibiotics. The figures are approximately 177 and 580 times more as compared to neonatal and preterm babies, respectively. Although there is paucity of data in the pediatric domain, carbavance (meropenem + vaborbactam) and solithromycin deserve special mention, as they are currently being used in pediatric clinical trials.

  • Antibiotics Currently in Global Clinical Development Note: This Data Visualization Was Updated in September 2018 with New Data
    A data table from Sept 2018 Antibiotics Currently in Global Clinical Development Note: This data visualization was updated in September 2018 with new data. As of June 2018, approximately 42 new antibiotics with the potential to treat serious bacterial infections are in clinical development. The success rate for clinical drug development is low; historical data show that, generally, only 1 in 5 infectious disease products that enter human testing (phase 1 clinical trials) will be approved for patients.* Below is a snapshot of the current antibiotic pipeline, based on publicly available information and informed by external experts. Please note that this resource focuses exclusively on small molecule products that act systemically (drugs that work throughout the body), contain at least one component not previously approved, and have the potential to treat serious or life-threatening infections.1 In September 2017, the antibiotics pipeline was expanded to include products in development globally.

  • Dostupnost Antiinfektiv V České Republice
    aktuálně ročník 27 | číslo 5/2017 LÉKY A PRÁVO Dostupnost antiinfektiv v České republice MVDr. Veronika Valdová Arete‑Zoe, LLC Souhrn Valdová V. Dostupnost antiinfektiv v České republice. Remedia 2017; 27: 509–513. na Seznamu nepostradatelných léčiv Světové zdravotnické organizace figuruje 119 antiinfektiv, z nichž v České republice není registrováno 29. Dalších 10 léčiv je registrováno, ale neobchodováno. Dostupnost antibiotik a dalších nezbytných léčiv má přímý dopad na klinickou praxi. Příkladem je aktuali- zovaný postup pro léčbu sepse a septického šoku, který doporučuje deeskalaci a zacílení na identifikovaný patogen ihned po jeho identifikaci z důvodu snížení zátěže pro organismus pacienta. aktualizované léčebné postupy je nutno brát v úvahu při sestavování národních seznamů nepostradatelných léčiv. Z nepostradatelných tuberkulostatik a antivirotik chybějí v ČR některé fixní kombinace určené pro první linii léčby tuberkulózy a HIV/aIDS. Padělky léčivých přípravků a nedoléčené infekce jsou hlavními příčinami vzniku multirezistentních kmenů původce tuberkulózy. Z hyperimunních sér v ČR chybí sérum proti záškrtu. Vakcíny se potýkají s celosvětovým nedostatkem v důsledku délky a náročnosti výroby. Klíčová slova: antiinfektiva – nepostradatelná léčiva – dostupnost léčiv – nedostatek léčiv – tuberkulóza – HIV/aIDS – sepse. Summary Valdova V. Availability of antiinfectives in the Czech Republic. Remedia 2017; 27: 509–513. the World Health Organization (WHO) lists 119 antiinfectives on the list of essential medicines. Of these, 29 are not registered in the Czech Republic, and another 10 are registered but not marketed. availability of antimicrobials and other essential medicines directly affects clinical practice. One such example is the newly revised guidelines for the treatment of sepsis and septic shock, which recommends deescalation of antibiotic treatment and targeting the causative pathogen immediately after its identification to minimize toxicity to the patient’s metabolism.
