ABSTRACT In vitro and in vivo activities of DA-7867 were assessed against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant enterococci, and penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. All isolates were inhibited by DA-7867 at ≤0.78 μg/ml, a four-times-lower concentration than that of inhibition by linezolid. For murine infection models, DA-7867 also exhibited greater efficacy than linezolid against all isolates tested.

The in vitro activities of LY333328 were compared with those of vancomycin, teicoplanin, and quinupristin-dalfopristin (Synercid) against 219 strains of enterococci and staphylococci, including vancomycin-resistant enterococci and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. MICs and MBCs were determined by a microtiter dilution protocol. LY333328 demonstrated superior activity against vancomycin-resistant enterococci and was the only antibiotic which was bactericidal. Its potency was comparable or superior to those of other antibiotics tested against methicillin-resistant staphylococci.
