Olamufloxacin
Olamufloxacin (HSR-903) is an orally active fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent. Olamufloxacin inhibits DNA supercoiling activity. Olamufloxacin exhibits activity against Gram-positive, Gram-negative, chlamydial, and quinolone-resistant bacterial strains. Olamufloxacin can be used for the research of bacterial infections.

Biological Activity
Olamufloxacin demonstrates potent antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative clinical bacterial isolates, with MIC50-like MICs ranging from 0.008 mg/L to 0.25 mg/L depending on the strain[1].
Olamufloxacin (18-42 h) potently inhibits growth of gram-positive bacterial clinical isolates including MSSA (MIC90 = 0.78 μg/mL), MRSA (MIC90 = 1.56 μg/mL), PSSP (MIC90 = 0.05 μg/mL), and PRSP (MIC90 = 0.05 μg/mL)[2].
Olamufloxacin (1/4×-2× MIC; 4 h) demonstrates rapid bactericidal activity against S. aureus Smith, E. coli KC-14, and P. aeruginosa E-2[2].
Olamufloxacin potently inhibits E. coli KL-16 DNA gyrase (IC50 = 0.74 μg/mL) but shows weak activity against human placental topoisomerase II (IC50 = 786 μg/mL)[2].
Olamufloxacin (48-72 h) potently inhibits growth of Chlamydia psittaci, Chlamydia trachomatis, and Chlamydia pneumoniae in infected HeLa 229 cells with MICs ranging from 0.016 to 0.063 μg/mL[4].
Olamufloxacin (24 h) potently inhibits growth of clinical Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates, including those with quinolone resistance-associated alterations in GyrA and ParC[5].

| Species | Dose | Route | T1/2 | Cmax | AUC0-∞ (Plasma) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mice[3] | 50 mg/kg | p.o. | 2.83 h | 1.42 μg/mL | 6.67 μg·h/mL |
Olamufloxacin (50 mg/kg; p.o.; three times daily; 3 days) effectively reduces lung bacterial burden in mice with Penicillin-resistant S. pneumoniae pneumonia[3].
Olamufloxacin (0.625 mg/kg; p.o.; twice daily; 3 days) demonstrates potent activity against H. influenzae respiratory tract infection in ICR mice[3].
Olamufloxacin (5-10 mg/kg; p.o.; twice daily; 5 days) exhibits in vivo efficacy in mice with Chlamydia psittaci-induced pneumonia[4].
