چکیده

TD-1792 is a new multivalent glycopeptide-cephalosporin antibiotic with potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria. The in vitro activity of TD-1792 was tested against 527 Staphylococcus aureus isolates, including multidrug-resistant isolates. TD-1792 was highly active against methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MIC(90), 0.015 μg/ml), methicillin-resistant S. aureus, and heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (MIC(90), 0.03 μg/ml). Time-kill studies demonstrated the potent bactericidal activity of TD-1792 at concentrations of ≤ 0.12 μg/ml. A postantibiotic effect of >2 h was observed after exposure to TD-1792.

In vitro activity of TD-1792, a multivalent glycopeptide-cephalosporin antibiotic, against 377 strains of anaerobic bacteria and 34 strains of Corynebacterium species.

TD-1792 is a multivalent glycopeptide-cephalosporin heterodimer antibiotic with potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria. We tested TD-1792 against 377 anaerobes and 34 strains of Corynebacterium species. Against nearly all Gram-positive strains, TD-1792 had an MIC₉₀ of 0.25 μg/ml and was typically 3 to 7 dilutions more active than vancomycin and daptomycin.

Substitution of amino acids 1 and 3 in teicoplanin aglycon: synthesis and antibacterial activity of three first non-natural dalbaheptides.

The replacement of amino acids 1 and 3 of glycopeptide antibiotics (dalbaheptides) with new amino acids or other chemical entities suitable to interact with both glycopeptide-resistant (D-Ala-D-Lactate) and susceptible (D-Ala-D-Ala) targets is one of the chemical strategies currently followed to pursue activity against highly glycopeptide-resistant VanA enterococci while maintaining activity ag...

Efficacy of the new cephalosporin ceftaroline in the treatment of experimental methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus acute osteomyelitis.

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the activity of a new cephalosporin, ceftaroline, in comparison with other antistaphylococcal drugs (linezolid and vancomycin) at projected human therapeutic doses against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and glycopeptide-intermediate S. aureus (GISA) strains. METHODS Using a rabbit experimental model of acute osteomyelitis, efficacy was assessed follo...

Cephalosporin-Glycopeptide Combinations for Use against Clinical Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates: Enhanced In vitro Antibacterial Activity

The empirical combination of both a beta-lactam and glycopeptide to counter potential staphylococcal pathogens may improve the clinical outcomes for cases of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia. We reported comparative in vitro studies of combination effects of different cephalosporins (i.e., cefazolin, cefmetazole, cefotaxime, and cefepime) combined with glycopeptides for 34 randomly selected met...
