Abstract

There is a strong need to find novel treatment options against urinary tract infections associated with antimicrobial resistance. This study evaluates two atypical tetracyclines, namely chelocardin (CHD) and amidochelocardin (CDCHD), with respect to their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. We show CHD and CDCHD are cleared at high concentrations in mouse urine. Especially, CDCHD is highly effective in an ascending urinary tract infection model, suggesting further preclinical evaluation.
