Efficacy of Novel Rifamycin Derivatives against Rifamycin-Sensitive and -Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates in Murine Models of Infection

Novel rifamycins (new chemical entities [NCEs]) having MICs of 0.002 to 0.03 μg/ml against Staphylococcus aureus and retaining some activity against rifampin-resistant mutants were tested for in vivo efficacy against susceptible and rifampin-resistant strains of S. aureus. Rifalazil and rifampin had...

In addition, half of the NCEs tested for oral efficacy had ED(50)s in the range of 0.015 to 0.13 mg/kg, i.e., lower or equivalent to the oral ED(50)s of rifampin and rifalazil.
