Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Drug Interaction Potential of SPR741, an Intravenous Potentiator, after Single and Multiple Ascending Doses and When Combined with β-Lactam Antibiotics in Healthy Subjects

) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) was observed. At doses of 100 to 800 mg, >50% of the dose was excreted in the urine in the first 4 h postdose. After multiple doses, the mean half-life was 2.2 h on day 1 and up to 14.0 h on day 14, with no evidence of accumulation after 14 days of dosing up to 400 mg. The PK profile of SPR741 and partner antibiotics was unchanged with coadministration. SPR741 was generally well tolerated at doses up to 1,800 mg/day. These data support further clinical development of SPR741 for treating serious infections due to resistant bacteria.
