The safety of the new anti-tuberculosis drug Tiozonide was studied by bioinformatics and preclinical methods using laboratory animals and with the participation of healthy volunteers. The absence of toxic effects on the main life support systems of mammals predicted by QSAR models was confi rmed by the results of acute, subchronic and chronic toxicity ...

Extrapolation of lung pharmacokinetics of bedaquiline across species using physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modelling. [PDF]
Aims Bedaquiline (BDQ) is a first‐in‐class diarylquinoline (DARQ) and a potent anti‐tuberculosis drug, vital in combating multi‐drug resistant tuberculosis (TB). Understanding its lung pharmacokinetics (PK) across species is crucial for effective clinical translation.

The Kinetics of Bedaquiline Diffusion in Tuberculous Cavities Open a Window for the Emergence of Resistance. [PDF]
Background Cavitary tuberculosis is difficult to cure and constitutes a site of relapse. Bedaquiline has been a wonder drug in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, but emergence of resistance threatens the sustainability of its success.

NTM-host matched infection models for the classification of drug efficacy against rapid and slow growing nontuberculous mycobacteria species [PDF]
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are increasingly recognized as major causes of pulmonary disease worldwide. However, progress in identifying effective clinical treatments is difficult because standardized, high-burden preclinical models that enable ...

Bedaquiline, pretomanid, linezolid, and moxifloxacin (BPaLM) for multidrug- or rifampin-resistant tuberculosis: a systematic review [PDF]
Objective: To evaluate the available evidence comparing the use of the bedaquiline, pretomanid, linezolid, and moxifloxacin (BPaLM) regimen for 6 months with that of standard-of-care regimens for patients with multidrug-resistant or rifampin-resistant ...

Bedaquiline (1) is a new drug for tuberculosis and the first of the diarylquinoline class. It demonstrates excellent efficacy against TB but induces phospholipidosis at high doses, has a long terminal elimination half-life (due to its high lipophilicity), and exhibits potent hERG channel inhibition, resulting in clinical QTc interval prolongation.
