Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | Contezolid (MRX-I) is extremely efficient against all clinical isolates of Gram-positive Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Enterococcus, including multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens including MRSA, PRSP, MRSA, and VRE[2]. |
| ln Vivo | Oral absorption of Contezolid (MRX-I) occurs rapidly in mice, rats, and dogs, with peak plasma concentrations seen 0.5−2.6 hours postdose. In mice, rats, and dogs, PK parameters were found as follows: dose-normalized Cmax/dose of 524, 1065, and 259 ng/mL/(mg/kg); dose-normalized AUC0−t/dose of 1654, 3703 and 1664 ng·h/mL/(mg/kg); T1/2 is 1, 1.5, and 3 hours; oral bioavailability is 69%, 109%, and 37% correspondingly [2]. Contezolid (MRX-I) showed no evident toxicity [2]. Contezolid (MRX-I, 100 mg/kg once daily) significantly reduced lung bacterial load compared with untreated early and late controls [3] |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: balb/c (Bagg ALBino) mouse are intranasally infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis Erdman[3]. Doses: 100, 50 (twice), 25 (twice) mg/kg. Route of Administration: intragastric (po) (po)administration, once or twice (two times) daily, five days a week for four weeks. Experimental Results: CFU recovered from the lungs was Dramatically lower (P < 0.05) compared with early and late control mice. MRX-I at 50 mg/kg and 25 mg/kg twice (two times) daily was Dramatically better than late-stage control mice (P < 0.05). MRX-I at 100 mg/kg one time/day was Dramatically better than 50 mg/kg and 25 mg/kg twice (two times) daily (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference between 50 mg/kg MRX-I and 25 mg/kg twice (two times) daily (P > 0.05). Animal/Disease Models: Rat[2]. Doses: 20, 100 and 200/300 mg/kg/day. Doses: Take orally twice (two times) daily. Experimental Results: No deaths were observed. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ~180 mg/mL (~325.89 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 4.5 mg/mL (8.15 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 45.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 4.5 mg/mL (8.15 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 45.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 4.5 mg/mL (8.15 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 45.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
