Besifloxacin (INN/USAN) is a fourth-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic. The marketed compound is Besifloxacin hydrochloride. It was developed by SSP Co. Ltd., Japan, and designated SS734. SSP licensed U.S. and European rights to SS734 for ophthalmic use to InSite Vision Incorporated in 2000. InSite Vision developed an eye drop formulation (ISV-403) and conducted preliminary clinical trials before selling the product and all rights to Bausch & Lomb in 2003. Besifloxacin is indicated in the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis caused by sensitive germs, as well as in the prevention of infectious complications in patients undergoing laser therapy for the treatment of cataracts. Besifloxacin inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV and has a broad spectrum of bactericidal activity against strains commonly isolated from patients with bacterial conjunctivitis. In addition, some exploratory in vitro data suggest that Besifloxacin inhibits cytokine formation in human corneal epithelial cells and monocytes, but the relevance of this finding to therapeutic efficacy is unknown.
