Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Cadazolid, also known ACT-179811, is a novel fluoroquinolone-oxazolidinone antibiotic and a protein synthesis inhibitor. Cadazolid may be potentially useful for the treatment of Clostridium difficile infection. Cadazolid exhibits potent in vitro activity against Clostridium difficile, including the epidemic BI/NAP1/027 strain. Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), the main cause of nosocomial infectious diarrhea, results from the growth of toxin-producing C. difficile in the colon following disruption of the normal enteric microbiota, usually as a consequence of antibiotic therapy.

Product Data
Biological target:
Cadazolid (ACT-179811) is a new oxazolidinone antibiotic with potent activity against Clostridium difficile.
In vitro activity:
Cadazolid was active against all (including linezolid- and moxifloxacin-resistant) C. difficile strains (MIC90 0.125, range 0.03-0.25 mg/L). The cadazolid geometric mean MIC was 152-fold, 16-fold, 9-fold and 7-fold lower than those of moxifloxacin, linezolid, metronidazole and vancomycin, respectively. Both cadazolid dosing regimens rapidly reduced C. difficile viable counts and cytotoxin with no evidence of recurrence. Cadazolid levels persisted at 50-100-fold supra-MIC for 14 days post-dosing. Cadazolid inhibition of enumerated gut microflora was limited, with the exception of bifidobacteria; Bacteroides fragilis group and Lactobacillus spp. counts were unaffected. There was no evidence for selection of strains resistant to cadazolid, quinolones or linezolid.

In vivo activity:
Cadazolid dose dependently prevented mortality and diarrhea when given to presensitized and C. difficile-infected C57BL/6 mice (Fig. 5). Dose-dependent efficacy was observed during and after treatment time and was reproducible between experiments. In 17 pooled independent experiments, the overall survival rates of mice treated with vehicle or cadazolid at doses of 0.1, 1, and 10 mg/kg were 18, 47, 97, and 100%, respectively, after the treatment period (day 5), while the corresponding values were 12, 40, 92, and 88%, respectively, at day 18 postinfection (Table 2). According to Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, cadazolid decreased the risk of death of infected mice during the 18-day monitoring period by 56, 96, and 95%, respectively, indicating a significant sustained treatment effect compared to vehicle-treated mice (P < 0.001 for all three dose groups). Overall, 0.1 mg/kg cadazolid was significantly less protective than 1 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg (P < 0.001), while 1 mg/kg was not significantly different from 10 mg/kg (P = 0.7). In three studies, cadazolid was compared to vancomycin side by side, and the pooled overall survival rates were similar at the same doses (Table 2).
