H. pylori, Broad-Spectrum

Finafloxacin is a novel fluoroquinolone being developed by MerLion Pharmaceuticals. Under neutral pH conditions (pH 7.2–7.4), the compound has shown in vitro activity equivalent to that of ciprofloxacin. However, under slightly acidic pH5.8 the compound shows enhanced potency.

Other marketed fluoroquinolones, such as ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and moxifloxacin, exhibit reduced activity at slightly acidic pH 5.0–6.5. This feature of finafloxacin makes the compound suitable for use in the treatment of infections in acidic foci of infections such as urinary tract infections

Finafloxacin hydrochloride, a novel highly potent antibiotic, is in phase III clinical trials at Alcon for the treatment of ear infections. MerLion Pharmaceuticals is evaluating the product in phase II clinical trials at for the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection and for the treatment of lower uncomplicated urinary tract infections in females.

A quinolone, finafloxacin holds potential for the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection and urinary tract infection. Unlike existing antibiotics, finafloxacin demonstrates a unique acid activated activity whereby it becomes increasingly active under acidic conditions.

In 2009, a codevelopment agreement was signed between Chaperone Technologies and MerLion Pharmaceuticals. In 2011, finafloxacin hydrochloride was licensed to Alcon by MerLion Pharmaceuticals in North America for the treatment of ear infections.

MerLion Pharmaceuticals has announced that the FDA has granted a Qualified Infectious Disease Product Designation and Fast Track Status for finafloxacin. The company is currently recruiting patients for the Phase II clinical trial of the compound for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) and/or acute pyelonephritis compared to ciprofloxacin

Finafloxacin and derivatives thereof can be synthesized according to the methods described in U.S. Patent No. 6,133,260 to Matzke et al., the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference in their entirety. The compositions of the invention are particularly directed toward treating mammalian and human subjects having or at risk of having a microbial tissue infection. Microbial tissue infections that may be treated or prevented in accord with the method of the present invention are referred to in J. P. Sanford et al., “The Sanford Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy 2007” 37 Edition (Antimicrobial Therapy, Inc.). Particular microbial tissue infections that may be treatable by embodiments of the present invention include those infections caused by bacteria, protozoa, fungi, yeast, spores, and parasites.

For the sample application using a solution of a concentration of 100 g of rac. trans-5 ,8-bis-tosyl-2-oxa-5 ,6-diazabicyclo [4.3.0] nonane in 3000 ml of tetrahydrofuran. A Trenncyclus is carried out under the following conditions: with the aid of a pump is required for 2 min at a flow of 50 ml / min, a part of the sample solution and the same time at a flow rate of 50 ml / min, pure n-heptane to the column.

Thereafter eluted at a flow rate of 100 ml / min 18 minutes with a mixture of n-Heptan/Tetrahydrofuran (3/2 vol / vol). This is followed for 3 minutes at a flow of 100 ml / min elution with pure tetrahydrofuran. Thereafter, further eluted with n-Heptan/Tetrahydro-furan (3/2 vol / vol). This cycle is repeated several times.

The first eluted enantiomer is the (lS, 6R) -5,8-bis-tosyl-2-oxa-5 ,6-diazabicyclo-[4.3.0] nonane, which is isolated by concentration. The eluate of the more retarding enantiomers is largely evaporated in vacuo, and the precipitated crystals are filtered off with suction and dried. From the separation of 179 g of racemate in this

Finafloxacin hydrochloride, an important clinical compound was synthesized by a novel synthetic approach. An active intermediate ethyl 7-chloro-8-cyano-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylate 19 was prepared by a new route. The chiral (S,S′)-N-Boc 10 was derived from protected pyrrolidine and the absolute stereochemistry was established by X-ray analysis.
