Abstract
The antibiotics chloramphenicol (CHL) and oxazolidinones including linezolid (LZD) are known to inhibit mitochondrial translation. This can result in serious, potentially deadly, side effects when used therapeutically. Although the mechanism by which CHL and LZD inhibit bacterial ribosomes has been elucidated in detail, their mechanism of action against mitochondrial ribosomes has yet to be explored. CHL and oxazolidinones bind to the ribosomal peptidyl transfer center (PTC) of the bacterial ribosome and prevent incorporation of incoming amino acids under specific sequence contexts, causing ribosomes to stall only at certain sequences. Through mitoribosome profiling, we show that inhibition of mitochondrial ribosomes is similarly context-specific - CHL and LZD lead to mitoribosome stalling primarily when there is an alanine, serine, or threonine in the penultimate position of the nascent peptide chain. We further validate context-specific stalling through in vitro translation assays. A high resolution cryo-EM structure of LZD bound to the PTC of the human mitoribosome shows extensive similarity to the mode of bacterial inhibition and also suggests potential avenues for altering selectivity. Our findings could help inform the rational development of future, less mitotoxic, antibiotics, which are critically needed in the current era of increasing antimicrobial resistance.

Hanscheid T, Del Portal Luyten CR, Hermans SM, Grobusch MP. Repurposing of anti-malarial drugs for the treatment of tuberculosis: realistic strategy or fanciful dead end? Malar J 2024; 23:132. [PMID: 38702649 PMCID: PMC11067164 DOI: 10.1186/s12936-024-04967-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug repurposing offers a strategic alternative to the development of novel compounds, leveraging the known safety and pharmacokinetic profiles of medications, such as linezolid and levofloxacin for tuberculosis (TB). Anti-malarial drugs, including quinolones and artemisinins, are already applied to other diseases and infections and could be promising for TB treatment. METHODS This review included studies on the activity of anti-malarial drugs, specifically quinolones and artemisinins, against Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC), summarizing results from in vitro, in vivo (animal models) studies, and clinical trials. Studies on drugs not primarily developed for TB (doxycycline, sulfonamides) and any novel developed compounds were excluded. Analysis focused on in vitro activity (minimal inhibitory concentrations), synergistic effects, pre-clinical activity, and clinical trials. RESULTS Nineteen studies, including one ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial, were analysed: primarily investigating quinolones like mefloquine and chloroquine, and, to a lesser extent, artemisinins. In vitro findings revealed high MIC values for anti-malarials versus standard TB drugs, suggesting a limited activity. Synergistic effects with anti-TB drugs were modest, with some synergy observed in combinations with isoniazid or pyrazinamide. In vivo animal studies showed limited activity of anti-malarials against MTC, except for one study of the combination of chloroquine with isoniazid. CONCLUSIONS The repurposing of anti-malarials for TB treatment is limited by high MIC values, poor synergy, and minimal in vivo effects. Concerns about potential toxicity at effective dosages and the risk of antimicrobial resistance, especially where TB and malaria overlap, further question their repurposing. These findings suggest that focusing on novel compounds might be both more beneficial and rewarding.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) drug discovery and development has undergone nothing short of a revolution over the past 20 years. Successful public-private partnerships and sustained funding have delivered a much-improved understanding of mycobacterial disease biology and pharmacology and a healthy pipeline that can tolerate inevitable attrition. Preclinical and clinical development has evolved from decade-old concepts to adaptive designs that permit rapid evaluation of regimens that might greatly shorten treatment duration over the next decade. But the past 20 years also saw the rise of a fatal and difficult-to-cure lung disease caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), for which the drug development pipeline is nearly empty. Here, we discuss the similarities and differences between TB and NTM lung diseases, compare the preclinical and clinical advances, and identify major knowledge gaps and areas of cross-fertilization. We argue that applying paradigms and networks that have proved successful for TB, from basic research to clinical trials, will help to populate the pipeline and accelerate curative regimen development for NTM disease.

Clin Infect Dis 2024; 78:133-143. [PMID: 37724763 PMCID: PMC10810707 DOI: 10.1093/cid/ciad557] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several clinical trials of tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT) for household contacts of patients with multidrug- or rifampin-resistant tuberculosis (MDR/RR-TB) are nearing completion. The potential benefits of delivering TPT to MDR/RR-TB contacts extend beyond the outcomes that clinical trials can measure. METHODS We developed an agent-based, household-structured TB and MDR/RR-TB transmission model, calibrated to an illustrative setting in India. We simulated contact investigation in households of patients with MDR/RR-TB, comparing an MDR/RR-TPT regimen (assuming 6-month duration, 70% efficacy) and associated active case finding against alternatives of contact investigation without TPT or no household intervention. We simulated the TB and MDR/RR-TB incidence averted relative to placebo over 2 years, as measurable by a typical trial, as well as the incidence averted over a longer time horizon, in the broader population, and relative to no contact investigation. RESULTS Observing TPT and placebo recipients for 2 years as in a typical trial, MDR/RR-TPT was measured to prevent 72% (interquartile range, 45%-100%) of incident MDR/RR-TB among recipients; the median number needed to treat (NNT) to prevent 1 MDR/RR-TB case was 73, compared to placebo. This NNT decreased to 54 with 13-18 years of observation, to 27 when downstream transmission effects were also considered, and to 12 when the effects of active TB screening were included by comparing to a no-household-contact-intervention scenario. CONCLUSIONS If forthcoming trial results demonstrate efficacy, the long-term population impact of TPT for MDR/RR-TB-including the large effect of increased active TB detection among MDR/RR-TB contacts-could be much greater than suggested by trial outcomes alone.

Abstract
Background Contezolid is a novel oxazolidinone antibacterial agent, but there have been no reports of any pertinent clinical studies for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB). This was the first report of three TB patients who were successfully treated with contezolid. Case presentation Case 1 was TB complicated by myelosuppression syndrome. Case 2 was drug-resistant TB complicated by cirrhosis and anemia. Case 3 was drug-resistant TB complicated by liver transplantation that developed severe anemia after linezolid treatment. Following contezolid therapy, the three patients' symptoms improved significantly, and no adverse reactions were observed. The chest computed tomography (CT) examination also indicated that the therapeutic effect of this anti-TB regimen was as expected. Conclusion Contezolid showed good efficacy and fewer side effects in the treatment of TB. It may be a promising TB treatment.

Abstract
A novel oxazolidinone for the treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been developed, but the activity of contezolid (MRX-I) still needs to be clarified. In this study, we isolated Mycobacterium tuberculosis from 48 clinical patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Roche drug susceptibility tests identified drug-sensitive and 39 drug-resistant M. tuberculosis isolates. Drug susceptibility assays indicated that MRX-I exhibited anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis activity against both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant isolates, with an advantage against drug-resistant isolates. The results also showed that the anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis activity was comparable to that of linezolid. IMPORTANCE Currently, Mycobacterium tuberculosis has exhibited increased drug resistance, leading to ineffective drug treatment in many patients with tuberculosis. Among the anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis drugs, oxazolidinones have been gradually developed. Contezolid (MRX-I) has been newly developed in China with advantages versus the first oxazolidinone antibiotic approved by the Food and Drug Administration for clinical use, but the anti-M. tuberculosis activity needs to be further clarified. In this study, in vitro activities of MRX-I against M. tuberculosis were tested. The drug susceptibility assays indicated that MRX-I exhibited anti-M. tuberculosis activity comparable to that of linezolid, with an advantage against drug-resistant isolates.

Abstract
New oxazolidinones are in clinical development for the treatment of tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections, as a replacement for linezolid and tedizolid, which cause mitochondrial toxicity after prolonged treatment. Here, we carried out side-by-side measurements of mitochondrial protein synthesis inhibition and activity against clinically relevant mycobacterial pathogens of approved and novel oxazolidinones. We found a large range of selectivity indices suggesting TBI-223 and sutezolid as promising candidates against tuberculosis and NTM lung disease caused by Mycobacterium kansasii.

Abstract
Due to the long-term and widespread use of antibiotics in clinic, the problem of bacterial resistance is increasingly serious, and the development of new drugs to treat drug-resistant bacteria has gradually become the mainstream direction of antibiotic research. The oxazolidinone-containing drugs linezolid, tedizolid phosphate and contezolid have been approved to the market, which are effective against a variety of Gram-positive bacterium infections. Moreover, there are also many antibiotics containing oxazolidinone fragment under clinical investigation that show good pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties with unique mechanism of action against resistant bacteria. In this review, we summarized the oxazolidinone-based antibiotics already on the market or in clinical trials and the representative bioactive molecules, and mainly focused on their structural optimizations, development strategies and structure-activity relationships in hope of insight into the reasonable design for medical chemists to develop new oxazolidinone antibiotics with highly potency and fewer side effects.

Abstract
Background Several clinical trials of tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT) for household contacts of patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) are nearing completion. The potential benefits of TPT for MDR-TB contacts extend beyond the outcomes that clinical trials can measure. Methods We developed an agent-based, household-structured TB and MDR-TB transmission model, calibrated to an illustrative setting in India, the country accounting for 26% of global MDR-TB burden. We simulated household contact investigation for contacts of patients with MDR-TB, comparing an MDR-TPT regimen against alternatives of isoniazid preventive treatment, household contact investigation without TPT, or no household contact intervention. We simulated outcomes of a clinical trial and estimated the patient-level and population-level effects over a longer time horizon. Findings During two years of follow-up per recipient, a simulated 6-month MDR-TPT regimen with 70% efficacy against both DS- and MDR-TB infection could prevent 72% [Interquartile range (IQR): 45 - 100%] of incident MDR-TB among TPT recipients (number needed to treat (NNT) 73 [44 - 176] to prevent one MDR-TB case), compared to household contact investigation without TPT. This NNT decreased to 54 [30 - 183] when median follow-up was increased from two to 16 years, to 27 [11 - Inf] when downstream transmission effects were also considered, and to 12 [8 - 22] when these effects were compared to a scenario of no household contact intervention. Interpretation If forthcoming trial results demonstrate efficacy, the long-term population impact of MDR-TPT implementation could be much greater than suggested by trial outcomes alone.
