  3. Finafloxacin

Finafloxacin is an orally active fourth-generation fluoroquinolone broad-spectrum antibiotic. Finafloxacin exhibits stronger antibacterial activity in acidic pH environments and is not easily affected by bacterial multidrug efflux transporters. Finafloxacin is effective against a variety of extracellular pathogenic bacteria, and can also accumulate in macrophages, showing excellent antibacterial activity against intracellular Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Legionella pneumophila, Burkholderia pseudomallei, and other pathogens. Finafloxacin has been approved by the U.S. FDA for research on acute otitis externa mediated by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Finafloxacin is also used in studies related to diseases such as melioidosis, inhalational tularemia, and inhalational plague.

In Vitro

Finafloxacin (24 h; 48 h) inhibits growth of extracellular MSSA, CA-MRSA, HA-MRSA, VISA, L. monocytogenes, and L. pneumophila with MICs ranging from 0.01 mg/L (against L. pneumophila) to 16 mg/L (against a ciprofloxacin-resistant HA-MRSA isolate), and shows reduced susceptibility to NorA and Lde efflux mechanisms compared to ciprofloxacin[1].
Finafloxacin is bactericidal against intracellular L. monocytogenes in human THP-1 macrophages at neutral pH, but is less potent than ciprofloxacin[1].

In Vivo

Finafloxacin (23.1 mg/kg; p.o.; every 8 h; 3-7 days) provides 100% survival when administered starting 24 h post inhalational F. tularensis challenge, and 50% survival when administered for 7 days starting 72 h postchallenge, with improved time to death compared to ciprofloxacin in the 3-day delayed regimen[3].
Finafloxacin (23.1 mg/kg; p.o.; every 8 h; 3-7 days) provides 100% survival when administered starting 24 h post inhalational Y. pestis challenge, and 80% to 100% survival when administered starting 38 h postchallenge[3].

Animal Model: BALB/c (female, 8 to 10 weeks old, inhalational challenge with Francisella tularensis SCHU S4)[3]
Dosage: 23.1 mg/kg
Administration: p.o.; every 8 h; 3 days; 7 days
Result: Provided 100% survival when treatment initiated at 24 h postchallenge, with 90% of mice showing no clinical signs of disease, no detectable bacteria in organs, and no histopathological changes typical of infection.
Increased time to death significantly compared to ciprofloxacin when treatment initiated at 72 h postchallenge for 3 days, with mice resolving clinical signs by day 7, relapsing by day 11, and succumbing by day 16.
Provided 50% survival when treatment initiated at 72 h postchallenge for 7 days, with all surviving mice having no detectable bacteria in organs and no histopathological changes typical of infection.
Caused less weight loss than ciprofloxacin in the 3-day 72 h postchallenge regimen, with differences identifiable at days 9 to 10 postchallenge.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
