Targets:
Gemifloxacin is an oral broad-spectrum quinolone antibacterial agent used in the treatment of acute bacterial exacerbation of chronic bronchitis and mild-to-moderate pneumonia. Gemifloxacin mesylate is marketed under the brand name Factive, indicated for the treatment of bacterial infection caused by susceptible strains such as S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, H. parainfluenzae, or M. catarrhalis, S. pneumoniae (including multi-drug resistant strains [MDRSP]), M. pneumoniae, C. pneumoniae, or K. pneumoniae. Gemifloxacin has in vitro activity against a wide range of Gram-negative and Grampositive
microorganisms. Gemifloxacin is bactericidal with minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) generally within one dilution of the minimum inhibitory
concentrations (MICs). Gemifloxacin acts by inhibiting DNA synthesis through the
inhibition of both DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV (TOPO IV), which are essential for
bacterial growth. Streptococcus pneumoniae showing mutations in both DNA gyrase and
TOPO IV (double mutants) are resistant to most fluoroquinolones. Gemifloxacin has the
ability to inhibit both enzyme systems at therapeutically relevant drug levels in S.
pneumoniae (dual targeting), and has MIC values that are still in the susceptible range for
some of these double mutants.
