Abstract
INTRODUCTION Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infection (BSI) is a major issue in healthcare, since it is often associated with endocarditis or deep site foci. Relevant morbidity and mortality associated with MRSA-BSIs forced the development of new antibiotic strategies; in particular, this review will focus the attention on fifth-generation cephalosporins (ceftaroline/ceftobiprole), that are the only ß-lactams active against MRSA. AREAS COVERED The review discusses the available randomized controlled trials and real-world observational studies conducted on safety and effectiveness of ceftaroline/ceftobiprole for the treatment of MRSA-BSIs. Finally, a proposal of MRSA-BSI treatment flowchart, based on fifth-generation cephalosporins, is described. EXPERT OPINION The use of anti-MRSA cephalosporins is an acceptable choice either in monotherapy or combination therapy for the treatment of MRSA-BSIs due to their relevant effectiveness and safety. Particularly, their use may be advisable in combination therapy in case of severe infections (including endocarditis or persistent bacteriemia) or in monotherapy in subjects at higher risk of drugs-induced toxicity with older regimens. On the contrary, caution should be taken in case of suspected/ascertained central nervous system infections due to inconsistent data regarding penetration of these drugs in cerebrospinal fluid and brain tissues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Ceftaroline fosamil is a β-lactam antibiotic approved as a 600 mg twice daily dose (≤1 h infusion, 'standard dosing') or a 600 mg thrice daily dose (2 h infusion) to treat complicated skin and soft tissue infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus (minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] 2-4 mg/L). We sought to systematically evaluate the relative impact of the three key components of the intensified dosing regimen (i.e. shortened dosing interval, prolonged infusion duration and increased total daily dose [TDD]) on the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) target attainment given different grades of bacterial susceptibility. METHODS A population PK model was developed using data from 12 healthy volunteers (EudraCT-2012-005134-11) receiving standard or intensified dosing. PK/PD target attainment (ƒT>MIC = 35% and 100%) after 24 h was compared following systematically varied combinations of the (1) dosing interval (every 12 h [q12h]→ every 8 h [q8h]); (2) infusion duration (1 h→2 h); and (3) individual and total daily dose (400→900 mg, i.e. TDD 1200→1800 mg), as well as for varying susceptibility of S. aureus (MIC 0.032-8 mg/L). RESULTS A two-compartment model with linear elimination adequately described ceftaroline concentrations (n = 274). The relevance of the dosing components dosing interval/infusion duration/TDD for ƒT>MIC systematically changed with pathogen susceptibility. For susceptible pathogens with MIC ≤1 mg/L, shortened dosing intervals appeared as the main driver of the improved target attainment associated with the intensified dosing regimen, followed by increased TDD and infusion duration. For less susceptible pathogens, the advantage of q8h dosing and 2 h infusions declined, and increased TDD improved ƒT>MIC the most. CONCLUSION The analysis calls to mind consideration of dose increases when prolonging the infusion duration in the case of low bacterial susceptibility.

Eur Respir Rev 2023; 32:230117.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is responsible for an array of problematic community- and healthcare-acquired infections, including pneumonia, and is frequently associated with severe disease and high mortality rates. Standard recommended treatments for empiric and targeted coverage of suspected MRSA in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP), including ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), are vancomycin and linezolid. However, adverse events such as acute kidney injury and Clostridium difficile infection have been associated with these antibiotics. Ceftaroline fosamil is a β-lactam/extended-spectrum cephalosporin approved for the treatment of adults and children with CAP and complicated skin and soft tissue infections. Ceftaroline has in vitro activity against a range of common Gram-positive bacteria and is distinct among the β-lactams in retaining activity against MRSA. Due to the design of the pivotal randomised controlled trials of ceftaroline fosamil, outcomes in patients with MRSA CAP were not evaluated. However, various reports of real-world outcomes with ceftaroline fosamil for pneumonia caused by MRSA, including CAP and HAP/VAP, been published since its approval. A systematic literature review and qualitative analysis of relevant publications was undertaken to collate and summarise relevant published data on the efficacy and safety of ceftaroline fosamil in patients with MRSA pneumonia. While relatively few real-world outcomes studies are available, the available data suggest that ceftaroline fosamil is a possible alternative to linezolid and vancomycin for MRSA pneumonia. Specific scenarios in which ceftaroline fosamil might be considered include bacteraemia and complicating factors such as empyema.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Staphylococcus aureus is a significant human pathogen, causing a variety of infections, from skin and soft tissue infections to endocarditis, bone and joint infections and deep tissue abscesses. Mortality from S. aureus bacteraemia remains high, without major therapeutic advances in recent decades. RECENT FINDINGS In recent years, optimized dosing of antibiotics is increasingly being recognized as a cornerstone of management for severe infections including S. aureus bacteraemia. This comprehensive review details the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) targets for commonly used antistaphylococcal antibiotics and the doses predicted to achieve them in clinical practice. Recent advances in dosing of teicoplanin and use of cefazolin in CNS infections and findings from combination therapy studies are discussed. Drug exposure relationships related to toxicity are also detailed. SUMMARY This review details the different PK/PD targets for drugs used to treat S. aureus bacteraemia and how to apply them in various scenarios. The drug doses that achieve them, and the risks of toxicity are also provided.

J Antimicrob Chemother 2022; 78:209-215.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Molecular analysis of meropenem-resistant mechanisms in mutants emerging from long-term in vitro meropenem exposure to borderline meropenem-susceptible carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) and non-CPE. METHODS Escherichia coli TUM13867 harbouring both blaIMP-6- and blaCTX-M-2-carrying IncN plasmid and Citrobacter koseri TUM13189 with blaCTX-M-2-carrying chromosome were used. Meropenem MIC was 1 mg/L against both strains. Each strain was cultured in the hollow-fibre infection model (HFIM) to approximately 1 × 106 colony formation unit (cfu)/mL, and meropenem 1 g q8h treatment was initiated. Then, changes in total and meropenem-resistant populations were observed for 124 h. Meropenem resistance mechanisms were analysed using full-length whole-genome sequencing (WGS), reverse-transcription quantitative PCR and digital PCR. RESULTS Meropenem reduced TUM13867 and TUM13189 to approximately 5 and 2 log10 cfu/mL, respectively, at 2 h after initiation, but regrowth was observed at 24 h. The meropenem-resistant mutant emergence frequency at 120 and 124 h was 4.4 × 10-4 for TUM13867 and 7.6 × 10-1 for TUM13189. Meropenem MIC of the mutants derived from TUM13867 (TUM20902) and TUM13189 (TUM20903) increased 4- and 16-fold, respectively. TUM20902, which harboured pMTY20902_IncN plasmid with a 27 505-bp deletion that included blaCTX-M-2, and blaIMP-6 showed 4.21-fold higher levels of transcription than the parental strain. TUM20903 had a 49 316-bp deletion that included ompC and a replicative increase of blaCTX-M-2 to three copies. CONCLUSIONS Molecular analysis including full-length WGS revealed that the resistance mechanisms of meropenem-resistant mutants that emerged during long-term in vitro meropenem exposure were increased blaIMP-6 transcripts in CPE and increased blaCTX-M-2 transcripts due to gene triplication and OmpC loss resulting from ompC deletion in non-CPE.

Abstract
Conventional cell culture systems involve growing cells in stationary cultures in the presence of growth medium containing various types of supplements. At confluency, the cells are divided and further expanded in new culture dishes. This passage from confluent monolayer to sparse cultures does not reflect normal physiological conditions and represents quite a drastic physiological change that may affect the natural cell physiobiology. Hollow-fibre bioreactors were in part developed to overcome these limitations and since their inception, they have widely been used in production of monoclonal antibodies and recombinant proteins. These bioreactors are increasingly used to study antibacterial drug effects via simulation of in vivo pharmacokinetic profiles. The use of the hollow-fibre infection model (HFIM) in viral infection studies is less well developed and in this review we have analysed and summarized the current available literature on the use of these bioreactors, with an emphasis on viruses. Our work has demonstrated that this system can be applied for viral expansion, studies of drug resistance mechanisms, and studies of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) of antiviral compounds. These platforms could therefore have great applications in large-scale vaccine development, and in studies of mechanisms driving antiviral resistance, since the HFIM could recapitulate the same resistance mechanisms and mutations observed in vivo in clinic. Furthermore, some dosage and spacing regimens evaluated in the HFIM system, as allowing maximal viral suppression, are in line with clinical practice and highlight this 'in vivo-like' system as a powerful tool for experimental validation of in vitro-predicted antiviral activities.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the leading causes of infection worldwide. Clove oil's ability to inhibit the growth of MRSA was studied through in vitro and in vivo studies. The phytochemical components of clove oil were determined through gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. The antibacterial effects of clove oil and its interaction with imipenem were determined by studying MIC, MBC, and FIC indices in vitro. The in vivo wound-healing effect of the clove oil and infection control were determined using excision wound model rats. The GC-MS analysis of clove oil revealed the presence of 16 volatile compounds. Clove oil showed a good antibacterial effect in vitro but no interaction was observed with imipenem. Clove bud oil alone or in combination with imipenem healed wounds faster and reduced the microbial load in wounds. The findings of this study confirmed the antibacterial activity of clove oil in vitro and in vivo and demonstrated its interaction with imipenem.

Abstract
The hollow fiber cartridge has the advantages of good semi-permeability, high surface area to volume ratio, convenient operation, and so on. Its application in chemical analysis, drug in vitro experiment, hemodialysis, and other fields has been deeply studied. This paper introduces the basic structure of hollow fiber cartridge, compares the advantages and disadvantages of a hollow fiber infection model constructed by a hollow fiber cartridge with traditional static model and animal infection model and introduces its application in drug effects, mechanism of drug resistance, and evaluation of combined drug regimen. The principle and application of hollow fiber bioreactors for cell culture and hollow fiber dialyzer for dialysis and filtration were discussed. The hollow fiber cartridge, whether used in drug experiments, artificial liver, artificial kidney, etc., has achieved controllable experimental operation and efficient and accurate experimental results, and will provide more convenience and support for drug development and clinical research in the future.

Abstract
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP)/community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) and complicated skin and soft tissue infection (cSSTI)/acute bacterial skin and skin structure infection (ABSSSI) represent major causes of morbidity and mortality in children. β-Lactams are the cornerstone of antibiotic treatment for many serious bacterial infections in children; however, most of these agents have no activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Ceftaroline fosamil, a β-lactam with broad-spectrum in vitro activity against Gram-positive pathogens (including MRSA and multidrug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae) and common Gram-negative organisms, is approved in the European Union and the United States for children with CAP/CABP or cSSTI/ABSSSI. Ceftaroline fosamil has completed a pediatric investigation plan including safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic evaluations in patients with ages ranging from birth to 17 years. It has demonstrated similar clinical and microbiological efficacy to best available existing treatments in phase III-IV trials in patients aged ≥ 2 months to < 18 years with CABP or ABSSSI, with a safety profile consistent with the cephalosporin class. It is also approved in the European Union for neonates with CAP or cSSTI, and in the US for neonates with ABSSSI. Ceftaroline fosamil dosing for children (including renal function adjustments) is supported by pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling and simulations in appropriate age groups, and includes the option of 5- to 60-min intravenous infusions for standard doses, and a high dose for cSSTI patients with MRSA isolates, with a ceftaroline minimum inhibitory concentration of 2-4 mg/L. Considered together, these data suggest ceftaroline fosamil may be beneficial in the management of CAP/CABP and cSSTI/ABSSSI in children.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic review focuses on the use of the in vitro hollow fibre infection model (HFIM) for microbial culture. We summarize the direction of the field to date and propose best-practice principles for reporting of the applications. METHODS Searches in six databases (MEDLINE®, EMBASE®, PubMed®, BIOSIS®, SCOPUS® and Cochrane®) up to January 2020 identified 129 studies meeting our inclusion criteria. Two reviewers independently assessed and extracted data from each publication. The quality of reporting of microbiological and technical parameters was analysed. RESULTS Forty-seven out of 129 (36.4%) studies did not report the minimum pharmacokinetic parameters required in order to replicate the pharmacokinetic profile of HFIM experiments. Fifty-three out of 129 (41.1%) publications did not report the medium used in the HFIM. The overwhelming majority of publications did not perform any technical repeats [107/129 (82.9%)] or biological repeats [97/129 (75.2%)]. CONCLUSIONS This review demonstrates that most publications provide insufficient data to allow for results to be evaluated, thus impairing the reproducibility of HFIM experiments. Therefore, there is a clear need for the development of laboratory standardization and improved reporting of HFIM experiments.

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Target Attainment in Adult and Pediatric Patients Following Administration of Ceftaroline Fosamil as a 5-Minute Infusion. Clin Pharmacol Drug Dev 2021; 10:420-427. [PMID: 33465279 PMCID: PMC8048922 DOI: 10.1002/cpdd.907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2020] [Accepted: 12/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
The key pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) efficacy index for β-lactam antibiotics is the percentage of time that free drug concentrations exceed the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of bacteria during each dosing interval (fT>MIC). Ceftaroline fosamil, the prodrug of the β-lactam ceftaroline, was initially approved for administration as 60-minute intravenous (IV) infusions. Population PK analyses comparing exposure and PK/PD target attainment for 5-minute and 60-minute IV infusions, described here, have supported ceftaroline fosamil labeling updates to include variable infusion durations of 5 to 60 minutes in adults and children aged ≥2 months. A 2-compartment disposition PK model for ceftaroline fosamil and ceftaroline was used to predict steady-state ceftaroline exposures (maximum plasma concentrations [Cmax,ss ] and area under the plasma concentration-time curve over 24 hours [AUCss,0-24 ]) and probability of target attainment in simulated adult and pediatric patients with various degrees of renal function receiving standard doses of ceftaroline fosamil as 5-minute or 60-minute IV infusions. Across age groups and renal function categories, median ceftaroline AUCss,0-24 values were similar for 5-minute and 60-minute infusions, whereas Cmax,ss was up to 42% higher for 5-minute infusions. Both infusion durations achieved >99% probability of target attainment based on PK/PD targets for Staphylococcus aureus (35% fT>MIC) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (44% fT>MIC) at European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing/Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute MIC breakpoints (1 mg/L and 0.25/0.5 mg/L, respectively). These findings support administration of standard ceftaroline fosamil doses over 5 to 60 minutes for adults and children aged ≥2 months, providing added flexibility to clinicians and patients.

Abstract
For recently licensed antibiotics, such as the cephalosporin ceftaroline fosamil, probability of target attainment (PTA) curves, showing the percentage of patients reaching a predefined pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) target at different bacterial minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), have been used to support and justify dose recommendations across patient populations. However, information on PTA for older antibiotics is limited. A retrospective analysis was conducted to construct PTA curves for 4 antibiotics against Staphylococcus aureus in patients with complicated skin and soft tissue infections (cSSTIs). PK models for vancomycin, linezolid, daptomycin, and ceftriaxone were selected from the literature based on large numbers of subjects with covariates representative of patients in Europe and/or the United States. An existing model was available for ceftaroline fosamil. Standard and high-dosage regimens were used to compare the PTA of each antibiotic at MIC values 0.03 to 64 mg/L for a simulated set of patients with cSSTI caused by S. aureus. These were compared to proportions of S. aureus isolates at each MIC from global surveillance data. Ceftaroline achieved PTAs >99.9% for bacteriostatic and bactericidal targets at the MIC90 (1 mg/L), whereas the comparators failed to achieve PTAs >90%, at bacteriostatic or bactericidal targets, even when clinical doses were increased beyond those recommended. PTA analysis can be used to compare different drugs with the same simulated patient dataset, subject to availability of an appropriate PK model and robust exposure targets. This analysis shows that some antibiotics commonly used to treat cSSTIs may fail to reach high PTAs relative to contemporary MIC90 estimates.

Abstract
Chronic airways infection with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is associated with worse respiratory disease cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Ceftaroline is a cephalosporin that inhibits the penicillin-binding protein (PBP2a) uniquely produced by MRSA. We analyzed 335 S. aureus isolates from CF sputum samples collected at three US centers between 2015-2018. Molecular relationships demonstrated that high-level resistance of preceding isolates to carbapenems were associated with subsequent isolation of ceftaroline resistant CF MRSA. In vitro evolution experiments showed that pre-exposure of CF MRSA to meropenem with further selection with ceftaroline implied mutations in mecA and additional mutations in pbp1 and pbp2, targets of carbapenems; no effects were achieved by other β-lactams. An in vivo pneumonia mouse model showed the potential therapeutic efficacy of ceftaroline/meropenem combination against ceftaroline-resistant CF MRSA infections. Thus, the present findings highlight risk factors and potential therapeutic strategies offering an opportunity to both prevent and address antibiotic resistance in this patient population.

The Emerging Role of β-Lactams in the Treatment of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bloodstream Infections. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2020; 64:AAC.00468-20.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infections (BSI) are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Monotherapy with first-line antimicrobials such as vancomycin (VAN; glycopeptide) and daptomycin (DAP; lipopeptide) are inadequate in some cases due to reduced antibiotic susceptibilities or therapeutic failure. In recent years, β-lactam antibiotics have emerged as a potential option for combination therapy with VAN and DAP that may meet an unmet therapeutic need for MRSA BSI. Ceftaroline (CPT), the only commercially available β-lactam in the United States with intrinsic in vitro activity against MRSA, has been increasingly studied in the setting of VAN and DAP failures. Novel combinations of first-line agents (VAN and DAP) with β-lactams have been the subject of many recent investigations due to in vitro findings such as the "seesaw effect," where β-lactam susceptibility may be improved in the presence of decreased glycopeptide and lipopeptide susceptibility. The combination of CPT and DAP, in particular, has become the focus of many scientific evaluations, due to intrinsic anti-MRSA activities and potent in vitro synergistic activity against various MRSA strains. This article reviews the available literature describing these innovative therapeutic approaches for MRSA BSI, focusing on preclinical and clinical studies, and evaluates the potential benefits and limitations of each strategy.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), is an important aetiological cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Empiric therapy for CAP frequently consists of β-lactam monotherapy or β-lactam/macrolide combination therapy. However, such agents are often ineffective against S. aureus and do not reflect the emergence and increasing prevalence of MRSA in the community setting. Ceftaroline fosamil is a fifth-generation parenteral cephalosporin with broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive pathogens - such as S. aureus (including MRSA), Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes - and typical Gram-negative pathogens, including Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis. The approval of ceftaroline fosamil in the United States and Europe for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe CAP was based on two phase 3 trials (FOCUS 1 and 2), which demonstrated that ceftaroline fosamil was non-inferior to ceftriaxone, a standard empiric treatment for CAP, while exhibiting a comparable safety profile. Although head-to-head trials of ceftaroline fosamil versus comparators against MRSA CAP are lacking, the effectiveness of ceftaroline fosamil in subpopulations of patients not covered by phase 3 trials (e.g. those with MRSA CAP or severe renal impairment) has been demonstrated in the Clinical Assessment Program and Teflaro Utilization Registry (CAPTURE) study. As ineffective empiric therapy is associated with adverse outcomes, including mortality and increased costs, ceftaroline fosamil, with its extended spectrum of activity, is an attractive alternative to standard antibiotic CAP regimens.

Abstract
Efficacy of ceftaroline fosamil, the prodrug of the active metabolite ceftaroline, was demonstrated in a phase 3 study of hospitalized Asian patients with Pneumonia Outcomes Research Team (PORT) risk class III-IV community-acquired pneumonia (NCT01371838). The objectives of the current analysis were to expand an existing ceftaroline and ceftaroline fosamil population pharmacokinetic (PK) model with data from this phase 3 study and a phase 1 study (NCT01458743) assessing ceftaroline PK in healthy Chinese volunteers and to evaluate the probability of PK/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) target attainment (PTA) in Asian patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) treated with ceftaroline fosamil. The ceftaroline plasma concentration-time course was simulated for 5000 Asian patients with CAP for different renal function subgroups using the final model. PTA was calculated for Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, and non-extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. PTA was also evaluated for ceftaroline MIC90 values of isolates collected from Asia-Pacific surveillance studies (2012-2014) and for EUCAST and FDA/CLSI ceftaroline susceptibility break points. The final model reasonably described the ceftaroline PK. Race was not found to be a significant covariate impacting ceftaroline PK, suggesting similar ceftaroline PK in Asian and Western populations when corrected for body weight. High PTAs (90%-100%) were predicted for Asian patients with CAP treated with ceftaroline fosamil, covering MIC90 values of target CAP pathogens from the region. Similarly, >90% PTAs were predicted at EUCAST and FDA/CLSI clinical break points for these pathogens. These results support the use of the ceftaroline fosamil dosing regimens approved in Europe and the United States in Asian patients with PORT III-IV CAP.

Abstract
Objectives To describe the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modelling and microbiological data that were used to support the recent European approval of ceftaroline fosamil 600 mg q8h by 2 h intravenous (iv) infusion for patients with complicated skin and soft tissue infections (cSSTIs) caused by Staphylococcus aureus with ceftaroline MICs of 2 or 4 mg/L, and the associated EUCAST MIC breakpoint update for q8h dosing (intermediate = 2 mg/L and resistant >2 mg/L). Methods A population PK model for ceftaroline and ceftaroline fosamil was developed using PK data from 21 clinical studies. The final model was used to simulate PTA in patients with cSSTI receiving ceftaroline fosamil 600 mg q12h by 1 h iv infusion or 600 mg q8h by 2 h iv infusion. PTA was calculated by MIC for S. aureus PK/PD targets derived from preclinical studies (27% fT>MIC for stasis, 31% fT>MIC for 1 log10 kill and 35% fT>MIC for 2 log10 kill) and compared with S. aureus ceftaroline MIC distributions from a 2013 global surveillance study. Results The final population PK model based on 951 subjects adequately described ceftaroline and ceftaroline fosamil PK. High PTA (>90%) was predicted for the ceftaroline fosamil 600 mg q12h dosage regimen against S. aureus isolates with ceftaroline MICs ≤2 mg/L. Greater than 90% PTA was predicted for the ceftaroline fosamil 600 mg q8h dosage regimen against S. aureus with ceftaroline MICs ≤4 mg/L. Conclusions The approved ceftaroline fosamil dosage regimens for adults and adolescents with cSSTI achieve high PTA against S. aureus at the associated EUCAST breakpoints.

Abstract
A new series of phenylthiazoles with t-butyl lipophilic component was synthesized and their antibacterial activity against a panel of multidrug-resistant bacterial pathogens was evaluated. Five compounds demonstrated promising antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant staphylococcal strains and several vancomycin-resistant staphylococcal and enterococcal species. Additionally, three derivatives 19, 23 and 26 exhibited rapid bactericidal activity, and remarkable ability to disrupt mature biofilm produced by MRSA USA300. More importantly, a resistant mutant to 19 couldn't be isolated after subjecting MRSA to sub-lethal doses for 14 days. Lastly, this new series of phenylthiazoles possesses an advantageous attribute over the first-generation compounds in their stability to hepatic metabolism, with a biological half-life of more than 9 h.
