- Abstract
Novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) are the newest members of gyrase inhibitor broad-spectrum antibacterial agents, represented by the most advanced member, gepotidacin, a 4-amino-piperidine linked NBTI, which is undergoing phase III clinical trials for treatment of urinary tract infections (UTI). We have extensively reported studies on oxabicyclooctane linked NBTIs, including AM-8722. The present study summarizes structure activity relationship (SAR) of AM-8722 leading to identification of 7-fluoro-1-cyanomethyl-1,5-naphthyridin-2-one based NBTI (16, AM-8888) with improved potency and spectrum (MIC values of 0.016-4 μg/mL), with Pseudomonas aeruginosa being the least sensitive strain (MIC 4 μg/mL)., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper: The authors were gainfully employed either at Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp., a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ 07033, USA or Kyorin Pharmaceutical, Tokyo and declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Ltd.
