Tissue penetration of telavancin after intravenous administration in healthy subjects.

چکیده
The pharmacokinetic disposition of telavancin administered 7.5 mg/kg of body weight every 24 h was determined in plasma and skin blister fluid. The mean penetration of telavancin into blister fluid was 40%. This study reveals that adequate concentrations are achieved in both plasma and blister fluid for pathogens frequently implicated in skin and soft tissue infections.

Multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of intravenous telavancin in healthy male and female subjects.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the steady-state pharmacokinetic parameters of telavancin, an investigational bactericidal lipoglycopeptide, after intravenous (iv) administration to healthy male and female subjects. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, gender-stratified, two-dose study, 79 adult subjects received three daily 60 min iv infusions of...

The pharmacokinetics, tolerability, and serum inhibitory and bactericidal titers of telavancin, a new rapidly bactericidal lipoglycopeptide with multiple mechanisms of action against gram-positive pathogens, were assessed in a two-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending-dose study with 54 healthy men. In part 1, single ascending intravenous doses of 0.25 to 15 mg/kg of bod...
متن کاملIntrapulmonary distribution of intravenous telavancin in healthy subjects and effect of pulmonary surfactant on in vitro activities of telavancin and other antibiotics.
Steady-state concentrations of telavancin, a novel, bactericidal lipoglycopeptide, were determined in the plasma, pulmonary epithelial lining fluid (ELF), and alveolar macrophages (AMs) of 20 healthy subjects. Telavancin at 10 mg of drug/kg of body weight/day was administered as a 1-h intravenous infusion on three successive days, with bronchoalveolar lavage performed on five subjects, each at ...
متن کاملEfficacy of telavancin against penicillin-resistant pneumococci and Staphylococcus aureus in a rabbit meningitis model and determination of kinetic parameters.
The penetration of telavancin was 2% into inflamed meninges and ca. 1 per thousand into noninflamed meninges after two intravenous injections (30 mg/kg of body weight). In experimental meningitis, telavancin was significantly superior to vancomycin combined with ceftriaxone against a penicillin-resistant pneumococcal strain. Against a methicillin-sensitive staphylococcal strain, telavancin was ...
