The in vivo efficacy of LY333328, a new glycopeptide antibiotic, was compared with that of vancomycin by using the rabbit model of left-sided methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis. Animals received LY333328 or vancomycin (25 mg/kg of body weight every 24 or 8 h, respectively) for 4 days. These drugs were equally effective in clearing bacteremia and in reducing bacterial counts in vegetations and tissues. We conclude that in this model, LY333328 was microbiologically effective and may be a therapeutic alternative to vancomycin.
通过使用左侧耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌心内膜炎的兔模型,将新型糖肽类抗生素LY333328的体内疗效与万古霉素进行了比较。动物分别接受LY333328或万古霉素(分别每24小时或8小时25mg/kg体重),持续4天。这些药物在清除菌血症以及减少赘生物和组织中的细菌数量方面同样有效。我们得出结论,在该模型中,LY333328在微生物学上是有效的,可能是万古霉素的一种治疗替代药物。
