Therapeutic Effects of Benzoxazinorifamycin KRM-1648 Administered Alone or in Combination with a Half-Sized Secretory Leukocyte Protease Inhibitor or the Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Diclofenac Sodium against Mycobacterium avium Complex Infection in Mice

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The effects of half-sized secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor or diclofenac sodium administered alone or in combination with the benzoxazinorifamycin KRM-1648 on the therapeutic efficacy of KRM-1648 against Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) in mice were studied. Neither of the two anti-inflammatory drugs affected the efficacy of KRM-1648, while they exerted significant modulating effects on tumor necrosis factor alpha production by MAC-infected macrophages.
