摘要
AZD2563 is a new oxazolidinone that has targeted activity against Gram-positive bacteria. The in vitro activity of AZD2563 and nine comparators against 1543 European enterococcal, staphylococcal and streptococcal isolates was determined. The compound is a potent oxazolidinone, with no isolate tested displaying an MIC > 4 mg/L and 94.4% having an MIC less than or equal to2 mg/L. Compared with linezolid, the distribution of MICs for all species of bacteria tested, with the exception of Enterococcus faecium, was shifted by one or two dilution steps to lower values for AZD2563. Thus, this oxazolidinone is a promising new antibiotic for the treatment of infections with Gram-positive cocci.
