چکیده
The des-fluoroquinolone BMS 284756 was active in vitro against all 151 clinical strains of Eikenella corrodens at a MIC of < or = 0.25 microg/ml and was comparable in activity to moxifloxacin and levofloxacin. The MIC at which 90% of the isolates were inhibited by penicillin G was 2 microg/ml; MICs for 8.6% of the strains (13 of 151) were > or = 4 microg/ml, including for two beta-lactamase-producing isolates. Amoxicillin-clavulanate and ampicillin-sulbactam inhibited all strains at a MIC of < or = 1 microg/ml.

In vitro activities of the des-fluoro(6) Quinolone BMS-284756 against aerobic and anaerobic pathogens isolated from skin and soft tissue animal and human bite wound infections.
BMS-284756, a new des-fluoro(6) quinolone, was very active against 240 aerobic and 180 anaerobic isolates from bite victims. It inhibited 403 of 420 (96%) isolates, including those of Moraxella spp., CDC group EF-4, and Eikenella corrodens at < or = 2 microg/ml and those of all Pasteurella spp. and Bergeyella zoohelcum at < or = 0.015 microg/ml. Fusobacterium russii and 6 of 11 Fusobacterium nu...
متن کاملIn vitro activities of novel des-fluoro(6) quinolone BMS-284756 against mutants of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus selected with different quinolones.
BMS-284756 (T-3811) is a novel quinolone that lacks a fluorine at the C-6 position. BMS-284756 has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity (3, 7). The purpose of the present study was (i) to analyze the in vitro activity of the novel quinolone against mutants of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus selected with marketed quinolones and (ii) to investiga...

Analogues of BMS-284756, a novel des-F(6)-quinolone, were synthesized and evaluated in order to determine the effects of modification of substituents on in vitro target inhibition. BMS-340281 (stereoisomer of BMS-284756), BMS-340280 (C-6 fluorinated analogue of BMS-284756), BMS-340278 (C-8-H derivative), BMS-433366 (C-8 methoxy analogue) and fluoroquinolone comparators were evaluated for antiba...

The in vitro sensitivities of 30 strains of Nocardia brasiliensis to DA-7867, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, and BMS-284756 (garenoxacin) were determined using the broth microdilution method. All N. brasiliensis strains were sensitive to these antimicrobials. The most active drug in vitro was DA-7867, with a MIC at which 90% of the isolates tested were inhibited of 0.03 micro g/ml and a MIC at whi...
