Curator's Comment: The description was created based on several sources, including https://www.drugbank.ca/drugs/DB02948 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00214643 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00217451 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21866890

Fosmidomycin (3-(formylhydroxyamino)-propylphosphonic acid mono-sodium salt, 3-(N-formyl-N-hydroxyamino)-propylphosphonic acid mono-sodium salt, FR-31564) is a potent inhibitor of P. falciparum 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate reductoisomerase (PfDXR), developed by Albert Schweitzer Hospital for P. falciparum malaria treatment. Fosmidomycin was originally isolated as natural antibiotic from Streptomyces lavendulae. Fosmidomycin is active against a broad range of enterobacteria, but not against Gram-positive organisms or anaerobes. Fosmidomycin was developed as far as an early phase II study for the treatment of urinary tract infections by Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Company (Osaka, Japan) in the early eighties, but these trials have been discontinued. In recent clinical studies, it was shown that fosmidomycin is effective in curing uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in humans. The treatment was well tolerated and resulted in a fast parasite and fever clearance. However, the high rate of recrudescence precludes the use of fosmidomycin as a monotherapy. In drug combination studies, the synergy of fosmidomycin with clindamycin was observed. Clinical studies with a fosmidomycin-clindamycin combination are currently ongoing.

Sample Use Guides

Fosmidomycin-clindamycin (30 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg) given twice daily for three days
Route of Administration: Oral
Assay mixtures (total volume: 200 mL) contained 100 mm Tris hydrochloride (pH 7.6), 4 mm MnCl2, 0.5 mm dithiothreitol (DTT), 0.5 mm NADPH, 10–30 nm of recombinant IspC protein (P. falciparum) or 100 mm Tris hydrochloride (pH 8.0), 10 mm MgCl2, 1mm NADPH, 27 nm of recombinant IspC protein (E. coli). Dilution series (1:2) of inhibitor 1 (Fosmidomycin) covered the concentration range of 200 mm to 1 nm. The reaction was started by addition of 1-deoxyxylulose 5-phosphate to a final concentration of 1 mm. The reaction was monitored photometrically (room temperature for P. falciparum or 37C for E. coli) at 340 nm in a microplate reader
